oranoco is running 250bhp on standard rods and crank, has uprated pistons, but thats about it. We are all waiting from him to put a rod though the block
hes running 25psi but has shot peened rods and uprated rod bolts so its gonna have to snap a rod rather than fook the bolt

hes headgasket is the major issue with that engine rather than boost as hes also got a tiny turbo on it and runs out of boost top end causeing less stress on the rods but more on the headgasket and gearbox,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, what parts has he fooked the most ?

also based on that a fresh standard bottom end will take 18psi on a standard turbo but with headwork and cams will require a larger turbo as theres not gonna be enough air proccesed to fill and in turb will be a slower engine or the turbo wil die before anything else
