Just heard from Mark the new CP Pistons have arrived from the States along with the Pistons for his Porsche. My new cams are also now built up & ready to go to the Vibration people. Im off to pick up the fuel tomorrow & will stay overnight as I don't want to travel too far in a single day. This is almost the last thing that is needed so its all go when the parts come back from Vibration.
Only choice of injectors remain & that's held pending testing with a 870bhp EVO to see just how much more Power this FTW Purple makes. Tests suggest it makes 10/12% over normal 106 so if Mark sees close to 950 from that engine we know we are a big step towards 1000bhp.
We are trying on this lads & taking all the time in the world & looking under every stone we can. The EVO is on a 9180 so it will indicate the Power the YB could make. Its probably not 1000bhp as the Turbo has an overspeed cut-off but we will push it to that point with as much boost as we can stuff down its throat. If we are to see 1000bhp on a YB its probably going to be on the GTX4202 which has a lot more lag than the 9180 so I don't expect the 42 to see service in the car its just outdated, Powerful but outdated.
When the build starts in January I will start a new thread with pics etc.
