"Yes but excuse my ignorance, but what is a disco potato? Rueby I would have thought that that setup would very easily pass the 150 hp. Are you doing any stiffening work for the oodles of torque you will have? I'm not that mechanical to understand most of..."

"I like your T25 idea Reubes, 220kw at the treads on a 300 with 14psi safe tune and reliable, so halve that, bingo,they are well priced to buy from the Z boys...they upgrade to hks2530's if they are smart, or fuk about with disco potato's for an upgrade......"

"emissions is quite a challenge with the CA18DET theres quite alot of plumbing and sensors everywhere   In the UK the 8v sohc head with boost make more torque than the det powerwise the det has a 5-10% advantage over 6000rpm   not much in it but something..."

"with a t25bb that manifold will be magic! heaps of torque from low rpm I initially looked at this one when thinking of turbo   When the lot is polished removing the pesky Mazda writing will be a gem!"
