are you videoing it on the dyno ? if it fails big time would be a shame not to have it on video .
Good point!
Its never going to be big power that does the pump in but needing rpm to make use of a 35r will certainly test the OE pump..... probably to destruction.
We know power isn't the problem, it's a combination of boost/cylinder pressure and revs, hence why this is interesting as no one has really gone to these levels of boost/revs before. Or if they have done it's not been done in public.

He will drive it on the road for sure if it stays in one piece. I've got a feeling it won't though baring in mind the idea is to put 2.5 bar through it revving to 8000+ rpm. What power are you hoping for? There's a few Zetec turbo engines making big boost/power, with a decent amount of miles on standard Blacktop pumps.
