Thanks Thezorn,
What can be expected as far as power output and will this put a lot more pressure on the lower end?
I'm staying with stock con rods. With a Giles pump and stock turbo will the lower end be okey?
I just sent an e-mail to Giles.
Thanks
what im getting at, is you dont NEED big valves unless you are striving for those insane power levels.. stock valves are good for 250hp or so..
250hp on stock valve size? Maybe, but with insanely high boost pressure 
The 6k rpm limit is a limit given by the VE pump, an inline pump happily revs higher, just look at what the MB IDI builds are capable of.
yeah i am wondering where that number has come from

AAZ, and i should have said that you SHOULD be able to make over 200hp with the stock valves..
hell, josh has stock valves, and he claims 288 whp.. with only 35psi or something like that..

I wonder what it would take to use a MB inline pump on a vw. Do they even turn the same direction?
the MB pumps are HUGE.. you ever laid hands on one?
andy2 has a 4BTA pump (bosch inline A pump) on his 400+hp compound turbo'd TDi.. but thats the only one ive ever seen..
