yes, it's the stock flywheel still. I didn't want to go so aggressive with the clutch as I will most likely keep it as is if I don't just take everything out and keep it on just bolt-ons.

Also wanted to ask you about your power band on the V2 Cams. As I am on stock cams and the power just kinda drops off after about 6,400rpm. Actually need to dyno again as I found a bunch of issues with leaks and plus the slipping clutch might make it so my car reaches the 330whp.

V2 Cams have more lift and duration and that keeps power in the usable to upper range. Without the upgraded springs all bets are off. The engine hasn’t complained once going over 7k rpm many times. They help the engine inhale and exhale easier which I think is so necessary with a big turbo. I’m going to have to put in the extrude honed mani as well. You were smart not to wind out your engine on stock springs. They can get overwhelmed and bind up. I would recommend doing it

yeah, actually left the limiter as per stock which is right around 6,600RPM which it never sees as I tend to shift at or about 6,400rpms.

Well you could just go mental, blow it up and have a good reason to put the short block and cams in. [burnout]

Well right now I'm thinking just upgrade the rmm,get an ap with a it's tune, maybe upgrade the intercooler, basically little stuff right now maybe go hybrid turbo next year or the year after. I'm trying to make sure I keep most of the reliability and with that being said I'm deff going to look at a radiator. The big stuff will happen when it's time to rebuild the motor.
