I had to open the engine, one of the rotors was not showing good compresion and had some cooland in the housing

on another note Im going with a big single turbo, this way i will be able to make the power I want easier, and Im going to port the engine

Will do, Thanks!

right now I am undicided what to do, a new race track has just being built in my town, I have the oportunity to get an FD rolling chassis really cheap but if I beging to put a race car together I have to put the 20b FD on hold for a while

I used to have an FC race car and sold it about 3 moth ago a couple of weeks before they made the building of the track public
