You unlucky fella, mate that sort of thing shouldn't be happening to a nicely built motor.

Like the Phoenix, rise again stronger

If you doing anything with the short block and have opportunity then up the compression a bit, that give you an instant power gain and with next level of boost we can get that 240 number happening easy

cheers Tim i'll speak to COME Racing to up the compression a bit

I bought a Suzuki Swift '85 for a work hack so the VT will be rarely used when I get it back

Highly recommend 9.2:1 at least, you will thank me forever for doing it, better low end snap and heaps more outright power/torque.

I cant wait to get it back, 49kw really doesn't really do it for me but its great on fuel :)

Heres me last week at Willowbank drag racing Brendon's supercharged SV6 (it only works for me on firefox)

so wat is the best time u pulled from ur stroked and blown motor i see 200rwkw and a 3.7 quarter but yer i would have thought u would be getting a bit better than that
how much boost u running?
was it tuned?
wat sort of exhaust are you runing?
do u have a cam or roller rockers?
has the gearbox been built properly?
do u have diff gears?

i wanna get a 13.5 out of my raptor charged vs and wondering wat it will take to get it there
cheers

Hey Brad, it was running 10 psi I am still waiting for the intercooler so i can raise up the boost. Its has a maffles tune from Chip Torque, genie headers and a twin 2.5 system, it had COME Racing cam and roller rockers. the transmission had a stage 2 shift kit with a 2500 stallie and 3.45 diff gears.

Heres what it sounded like
