    Question about a Group A ct26

    Who cares it's 20 year old tech and unless you have a genuine Turbo A or a Group A race car in mint condition there's no sense in paying a premium for old junk.... :nono:

    torque converter

    Ummm the car would be less of a slug on launches, think of it as slipping a clutch on a manual car to get the RPM's up where the engine is making good power as opposed to a granny start.

    Is the r154 worth the swap

    Comes down to Tq, hp means nothing to the trans, 58's are used behind 600+rwhp Rotaries here all the time. My rebuilt W58 showed signs of stress under 300 due to the GT3040R with a .63 AR Turbine housing as it would make boost just off idle and made massive Tq before choking at 5000ish.

    mk3 4 a first car

    A 1st car should be something cheap and reliable that you can rack up many many many hours of practice in, NOT something that will spend 95% of it's time up on stands waiting to be rebuilt/repaired.....

    Mine was aftermarket, the Mk3 is a brilliant tow car, I bought one of my milling machines home with mine about 1500Kg's all up.
