Hi Peter,

I think that is the "path" I am going to go down for now....

- Stick with the 3T-GTE, go out & circuit sprint it for a while (& remember how to race something on 4 wheels again!)...
Hey, its got 135kw atw now, so it should be a little bit of fun
- Meanwhile, save up a few more $$ for a decent bb turbo (prob a GT40) & parts for a "solid" engine
- Try running the new turbo & my current LPG setup for a while (keeping the tuning side of things rather conservative - 190kw)
- Then, build up the 3T-GTE with the new setup (probably be very similar to Rod's (except trying to keep the costs down a bit) (thetoyman75) http://forums.toymods.org.au/index.php?t=msg&t h=15506

- Then I will start looking into a LPG injection setup if mr shin has any sucess with his setup.

- If then, I still don't have enough power, I will then start saving for the next engine ... but I should be able to re-use a lot of the parts I have newly purchased, eg (turbo, ecu, injectors, etc...)

If you could PM me dick's details, I would be interested to have a chat with him.

I am looking to build the engine with a bit more torque in mind.... nice flat / useable power curve as possible. Ideally, something that starts working at 2000rpm & is really pulling by 3000rpm & keeps going up to 7000rpm.

Do you have any suggestions on what I could do to achieve that. Eg what compressor / turbine wheels & trim to give this sort of powerband... cam timings? valve size modifications?
I already have a few ideas, but I am interested to know what other people's thoughts are, especially from those who have "been there & done that"
