280-290 is max out k04 imo. Badger5 TIP squeezed more airflow to the tubby.

300 mine made yes, but very cold day, high octane fuel recently serviced etc etc... In real road terms mine is probably around the 285-290 mark. I need to log some g/s soon for sure, but it feels very rapid these days :)

duel sbc

my bad sorry!!! duel solinoid boost controller!! just say for arguments sake your running a standard lcr 225!! fit a blitz sbc can take it 250 no probs without any other mods!! because you can alter the gain and ratio of how turbo spools up etc all ts talk that a k04 will not do 300bhp is b*ll*cks what about normally aspirated engines that pump out 300+ without a turbo the turbo just adds bhp!!
mines running at 320 with hybrid k03s same as k04 i cant get any more bhp because im more a less at limit with this turbo at 320...
when i get round to fitting the garret i hope to be 450min 500 what im aiming for
there good for 500bhp if your cars engine is mapped your turbo will still be running stock without it!!!

Is there a 300bhp NA 1800cc car that hasn't had serious internal work done? Isn't an SBC just another form or boost controller that's similar in operation to an MBC? If that's the case we could all crank up the boost like the old Renault 5's, RST's etc and blow the rods through the block :shrug:.

technical term

BOLLOX your k03 hybrid is making that power

you comparison is ludicrous.. as is your total understanding of how things work

Add an external boost controller onto a Std 225 and you will get 5psi, not more, as it will drop into limp mode as soon as it see's +/- 250mb of requested boost

Talking of JBS[:@] mines in garage at moment having turbo-mani gasket fitted!! JBS supplied my mani and hybrid k03!! cross threaded the bolts on turbo :censored: hence reason why gasket has blown after 2 months[:@] have had to send it to engineers to get it all re-threaded:censored: 2nd turbo from them as 1st blew up after a week:censored: ive not sent it back to JBS as want this turbo to remain good....
i have got alot of other mods but with this turbo i am seeing 320bhp blitz sbc does help tunning alot.
