I suspect people that talk abou their cars wheelspinning tend to try to drive the accelerator pedal through the firewall and wonder why they cant get the power down.
How many people jump on a Yamaha R1 and wrench the throttle then complain the bike doenst handle?
I can safely rev my 3lt out to 6500-7 and stay off boost yet control the wheelspin. If i do its my fault due to the suspension setup and the crapola tyres im running.
Everyone forgets u NEED a turbo to suit this motor. A stupid highflow is fun, but a gt30 or bigger is needed minimal. It aint fun wheelspinning @ 1500rpm off the lights. This costs like 2k before u even got the motor in.
Add extras like gaskets, oil, coolant, etc and it adds like 2k onto the end budget. Typical with this shit is that stuff comes up. Expect that u WILL blow the gearbox as it simply wont handle the torque (cubes mashed 1 with 176rwkw). Subframe mounts, suspension etc all take a beating with extra power, so dont expect to try to pull a a budget 280rwkw anyday. It aint happening.
Buy a 2535 for the 2Lt and be happy....unless u want to spend 10k +. The motor and head are the cheap bits to buy for the 3lt conversion...
