Default 12:1 E85 turbo build

Hey,

The car and new engine are here, Ill post what we are doing as we go and everybody can give me feedback, advice, call me a retard, all the usual stuff.

The engine is a 12:1 built N/A B6 engine and will go into the white NA from the shitfight thread. I will get the engine apart and go through it and see for sure whats inside and as usual post plenty of photos and results. This time Ill be prepared and will ask everyone what they want to see on the dyno sheet before I take it.

I like turbos. You should use a turbo.

Nuge has got it.

I think a supercharger and 700hp dyno sheet will do it.

Its a road racing car with 245 slicks.

It has a 6 speed gearbox, so maximum reliable area under the curve and response.

Keep that torque flat at 280ft-lbs from 3.5k to redline. EBC for some boost creep by design if it's needed up top.

He's joking about the 20s part, but i'm pretty sure it's on 18s.

17s. 245 slicks.

Not my car, not my choice. Moving on..

It looks like it will just end up with a spud, I'll let people know.

Yep, a GT2860rs and an external gate.

I'd be inclined to go screamer with a muffler but I'm not sure if he will be keen.

I'll keep everyone updated.

I'm pretty happy with my potato. Spool isn't ideal but you don't notice it unless you happen to be below 3k.

He wants lots of power, then says he'll use a spud.
He wants lots of response, then uses a 1.6.
He says he's on a budget, then fabs up tons of expensive parts.

I don't get it.
