Or is that with bigger valves and all your other mods?If that's a simple port and polish. It seems there is great gains to be had on the intake side. I've been curious about doing some home gasket matching and polishing to try and eek out some more efficiency. Also do you have numbers that compare the stock TD IM to your sausage stuffer flow or are those secrets Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2I have no numbers on the sausage stuffer intake or the stock intake. Although my machinist said the stocker will "probably" flow similar to mine at redline, but it will have so much tumble that unless it is at redline it will flow a lot less in all other situations, especially low to mid rpm.On the 2 charts. The top chart is the new oversized intake valve CFM ratings. The bottom chart is my old head that just had stock sized stainless valves and the port and polish vs. stock numbers on that same head with no port and polish. I just wanted to show what the difference was between stock, ported, and big valve 7mm stems ported.

This noise sounds different than when the compressor bailed on me but the same noise as when CRSMP5 and I took that spin. The turbo when boosting over 10 psi makes a loud turbo whine too. It kind of scares me as it is loud and sounds like it is spinning too fast. I have no clue how fast it is going and that is why I wonder what the total PSI should be set at.Have you posted a video of this beast yet?Sent from Outer Space!

...your audio file of the 1-2-3 pull sounds awesome on quicktime! What do you think the high rpm capability of my mostly bone stock 1.6CY engine is with the following changes: - completely balanced bottom end with ARP rod bolts and first oversize KS pistons, - stock head, new stock cam, all new mechanical valvetrain for turbodiesel, - stock intake manifold, - stock injection pump, - VNT-15 turbo with Libbydiesel actuator & frozenboost AWIC, - stock FN transmission with 3.67 R&P?Also how much horsepower do you think you make and what clutch are you using/is it enough to hold it long term? At what psi boost level would you expect stock intake valves to be held open?
