pineapple turbo

[pineapple]

hey guys so friday went really good, it turned out to be a long day getting up at 4am and not getting home till midnight but after a few years doing this engine im very pleased to say it did great and its strong as fook....

it did 357bhp and 358flb of torque @24 psi

talking to jon at courtenay it would do even better with a bigger intercooler and tophat maybe knocking on the 400bhp door!!!!!!! but ive done what i wanted and very pleased with the 5 or so year project pineapple..

pics coming soon...

gp1 came with us and his estate did great figures ill get him up update

It was a very long day but as you say well worth it. Yours flys now it proper took off on the way home when that beemer tried to play. Go for the 400bhp it will be worth it
