Did you not go for a reversed inlet manifold setup?

Kept with the standard inlet for now as car is going to be used on the road/drag strip ,going reversed next year with magnesium wrc inlet,just want a bit of fun on the road this year.I am not going to mention the price ,dont want to think about it.If you want to know the price of the pullys ring RCM.

What is RCM claiming as far as advantages/power gains from the cam pulleys?

Yes that is my car in RCM with no engine in at the momment ,engine should be in soon then just the twisted turbo to fit.
The main advantage of the cam pulleys is,it makes the engine rev quicker,less weight to rotate.

Rich,i do want to compete in the car this year ,but just want to get used to the power first ,550bhp is a big jump when i am not used to it ,so starting off with that.I would like to just have some fun with RWYB down santa pod this year ,then put a bigger turbo on and go racing next year.The engine is a 2.1.

So I assume you did like 92.5mm pistons and an EJ257 crank? What turbo are you going to use GT30R?

cheers

Sweet can't wait to hear the numbers that thing puts out. That has the T3 housing right? A guy in the states put out 400hp at the wheels on a stock US spec 2003 WRX engine using a GT30R. It was a beast. I think the map was tuned down to 350HP at the wheels tho coz he wanted it to last a few years.

cheers
