    New here and here is my build

    Why did you decide on a turbo setup like that? :S Stock setup has one bend in the pressure pipes near heat and you have added two more plus more exhaust pipes in the engine bay. Each bend in a pipe results in turbulence = lower speed of air = it's easier for the air to pick up heat. On a...

    Head Gasket thickness selection

    I went with a 3mm MHG. The easiest equation is stock block + stock head + stock gasket - new block - new head = new HG This should give a comp ratio slightly higher than stock and since I'm using 9:1 pistons so I should be around that.
