hey guys for some time ive had my vl running an rb26 and now it is time to build the motor ! im getting it built by bresciani racing with forged pistons and rods and i am replacing the stock cams with hks 272 with 10.2 lift and hks heavy duty valve springs! i already run a autronic with cdi so i will stick with that ! as for turbo i have been running a gt35r but i am thinking bigger now but not sure how big maybe gt42r or a hks t51r spl ! any thoughts?

Should have gone RacePace Best in the business when it comes to big 26's, even 3ltrs being his own car is rattling off 550rwkw with some custom turbo You might aswell go 3ltr IMO. Doesnt cost much more, and if your spending the coin for the bottom end you might aswell fork out a grand or two more and have the extra 500cc. T04z on the side of it, romp in 450rwkw with insane response, all the while on the PULP Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
