Steve,

Found this thread on the MLR (link below).....May be of interest to you....
I know that you've got your turbo sorted etc......
BUT this shows the lengths EVO tuners have to go to to beat the TOTB Skylines


3.3 BAR (just under 50 LBS/PSI boost)

Anyone know anything about this new Holset turbo that RC have tested at 3.3bar, I know it has a billet (MFS) impeller which narrows it down a little bit as we only make a few different builds which use the MFS impeller and they all are mainly Volvo builds.
Just wondering if RC just buy the core from our Aftermarket division and use their own end housings or adapt the whole turbo for usage.

Yea ive heard of it, someone on the GTR board mentioned it.

Got a feeling its only rated to about 600bhp so no good for me (if its the RC turbo setup i think it is) but maybe would be bloody good on a cossie if the engine was specced with low enough comp to run silly boost.

Holset make damn good turbos, looked into them a lot about a year or so ago, trouble is their tech details and help is sketchy at best, they almost totally focussed on the Diesel market it seems...

Holsets are used a lot in Scandinavia on Cossies etc, and they make some REALLY big turbos, shame they cant tell you feck all about em
