Maximum boost thread (93 oct > pump petrol/gasoline only!)

1.5l 4 cylinder, 500hp at 1.7bar and virtually no lag above 4000RPM with redline of 10200RPM. The turbo they use? Garrett journal bearing turbo from the Cosworth V6 F1 engine, circa 1986. Just shows you don't need billet wheels, dual ceramic ball bearings, pixie dust or any other magic... just proper wheel sizing, proper manifold, and proper engine management (that engine runs life racing ECU with DBW).

They are a really good turbo.
This power in a full weight FD (1300kg as run) and stock gearbox (true road car) does
9.9's @ 146mph on ~ 29psi boost. (as per engine dyno test) 770bhp @ 8500rpm and well over 20psi boost at 4500rpm!
