Yes, but it is reputed to be a little larger, so it could need slight adjustments to boost control - nothing a bit of restrictor alteration wouldn't cure, or a Dawes, or remap.

Thanks for the speedy response John. Restrictor or Dawes you say? I dont have a boost gauge so would need to get one of those as well, is the restrictor option easier?
Restrictor = right foot?
Thanks again!

Not certain of the detail changes, but they do mean that the bugeye is able to hold boost a bit longer. At the risk of stating the obvious, that must mean either compressor map stretched a little to the right or less backpressure and hence higher VE at 300CFM+ flows. No idea which?
I know RR figures don't mean a lot, but several bugs have achieved mid-high 290s at PE, and one I know even got over 310 there
Can't remember ever seeing a classic reach 290 on standard TD04.
