Breaking SHOCKING news...
The worldy <b>morboost</b> has recently had a remake at the hands of alex at racecraft, running now a large intercooler, with a 700hp turbo.
As most of you know, this car used to run a 10.83 quarter.
It now runs a 12.2
You do the maths.

Yes racecraft's ta22 ran an internally standard engine.
But why such a shocking time think about it 4 a bit. I would seen that the person responsible for the good quater mile time does not happen to be employed at racecraft anymore so there u have it.

I have the zoom article somewhere, they are stock internals, big turbo, ems managment and more injectors, also, they built valves or some shit in the head which releases steam pockets to keep it cool. They killed like 5 blocks when they were developing it though.

They played a little with the way the coolant flowed through the head, as they said that it was creating air pockets where 1 or 2 of the cylinders wern't keeping cool well enough to run that much boost. They were running temp sensors on every cylinder to make sure. It was 3 blocks they killed to figure this out.

Expensive yes, unless you got the blocks for $80 like they did (or something ridiculous around there somewhere ... )
