I have suspicions it is more than that Adam. That turbo must be flowing a hell of a lot of air at 15psi!
 
guys on replys guys , all cars and turbos have differnert flow rates and sizes as well ,
this one spools 2500rpm in decent boost at 3000rpm and will pull clean to limiter set to 7400 at mo , but will be set to 8400rpm on the track , going on a data log i did at 8psi its 250bhp riseing to 15psi 320/340bhp once its at 20psi be 400/420bhp 27psi will take it over 450 approx..... starts getting a bit hairy thow :lol:as anything above 10psi in a fwd caddy runing 2wd is a waste of time ,as it will either pull left then to right and chuffing tyres light up ,(fitted bf goodrige too ) ive tryed to get 4 wheels spining and a dam hard with old engine at 25psi
 
engines runing very well at 15psi at mo , oil temps, oil pressure, afr, timing, fueling map best its been so far ,, so thought id treat the caddy to another homemade header tank , made from alloy , as ebay prices are a dam rip off

standard ones fit sound as stock on the front heres a quick pic and no rim cutting needed
evern made a jig to re line the rims ,, unsure what to do , asi like how they fit on the fronts, as the tyes wount catch the archers when i slam it

thew a couple of tyres on to see how they look , still in 2minds wheather i should keep alloys or run these had to fit 205 50 16 couple of pics

as it gives me a idea now ,that i need to pull the offset of the rear rims in a bit more to miss the inner archers
 
personally I think the steelies look far better! How have you got them to clear the front brakes?
 
i d feel ashamed to fetch this anywere lol its rough:lol had to remove the willwoods and fit stock 4motion calipairs make some adaptors but they clear the front discs by 3mm lol , ill thew some tyres on 2moz get the offset in place and buzz them up , she how it looks then , and slam it a bit more then when i found the sumps dragging ill make a custom one lol
 
Ashamed?! Look how many fantastic comments you have! Most people at shows cannot say they built their car just bought bits and fitted them or got a garage to fit them. Dunno how many threads on different forums but the amount of support you have so many people would love to see this caddy.
