yeah turbovan how did you get 210.6rwkw from 11PSI?
and also i wonder if i could change my current headgasket to a MHG without going to a machine shop. Seeing as my current head and block are perfectly straight, just need to polish the metal surfaces i think. Hmm i better read up on that idea.

thats a good price.
I am just not sure if i should splash out now and do the MHG/ARP bolts, or wait for my composite one to blow if it ever does, been over a year and it still hasn't blown.

OK fellas here are my secrets hehe not really any secrets, its all the little things that make power:
1. Freshly blueprinted engine - everything measured, honed, bored, machined until everything is as per Toyota specs
2. Still using Crown fuel pump which is maxxed out, this is giving me a leaner (still safe) mixture than the stock mega-rich mixtures. Helps power
3. Full 3 inch system with non-restrictive dump pipe and 3 inch cat
4. Heat wrapping on intercooler pipes and exhaust
It made 185kw on the same boost before i rebuilt and blueprinted the engine
Also have a HKS fuel cut defender, not sure if it is needed though at this boost level

For all those who wish to know.
A mob called Serco in Qld (www.serco.com.au) are now stocking the Cometic MHG that suit the 7M engines.
They currently have in stock the 0.040" (1.0mm) 84mm bore units (7 of them to be exact) at a retail price of $230 + GST, and a trade price of $177 + GST
Anyone interested in a group buy ?
Cheers

They don't have the 1.2mm in stock, but they reckon they can get them in.

Does it really matter though ?
