On a side note... I'd love to see some video clips of polly x's Westy being driven hard, i reckon that thing would boogie along nicely!
i want to go with supercharger for the instant power over the turbo lag, with the turbo setup i can do whatever hp i want, and 1k hp will be easy as 300hp out of a cossie, the problem with supercharging is the heat from the supercharger, there is a charge cooler that sits under the supercharger and has water running through it, but its not big, and space is limited to make it bigger, but i think i have a way of intercooling it instead, but i won't be able to work on that till after xmas, going to order the ford gt inlet to have a look at and a work out if what i want to do looks do able, want to use the gt inlet because it comes factory with 2 injector holes per cylinder
