Brett,

Hoping for something new and exciting, (and productive.) Almost have an engine ready to put together, just waiting to use your (great) ideas!

Ive been wondering for about a month now if you can beat 220whp without some really expensive mods. That engine thats in there already is a beast! Want to sell it?

I will be amazed if you could make even 10 more whp.
A stock twin turbo FD back in the day made like what 240-260? I know it was a whole different time and place but dang.

More power to you and good luck and hopefully some breakthroughs happen!

On that note ...... I got sucked in buying that cheap knockoff .
l did get most of my money refunded after outlining how I would get the guy banned though. Decided I'd try and use it seeing as it's just experimental at this stage.

Guess I’m not sure why you think that’s going to result in some kind of substantial power gain on an NA engine?

edit: not intended as a criticism, but without more info I’m not understanding how that is going to result in a power improvement. So there likely must be more to it, which why post that and not just lay it all out?
