Looking for some advice on my performance build.
Current Setup:
Motor: PD130 ASZ with approximately 100 000km’s on it (stock but has a stage 2 colt cam for the last 30 000km’s)
Turbo: GTB2260VK
Exhaust: 3” turbo back (cat less)
Intercooler: FMIC 2.5” piping
Transmission: Stock PD100 5 speed with a stage 2 Southbend clutch (approx 408 000km’s on the transmission and 50 000km’s on the clutch)
Suspension: Hotbits DT1 coilovers
Brakes: GLI 312mm front brakes and 256mm Rears
Engine Tuning: Malone software running @ 30PSI
My last dyno ran 330tq@235whp. Peak torque was somewhere around 425 ft lbs. Peak hp was @ 3800rpm. Setup smokes like a train at full throttle. EGT’s still stay below 1600*F. Unable to measure EMP’s.
My question to the group here is now that I’ve found a set of Firad 80% nozzles to fuel my turbo – what should I be looking to spend on next?
My goal was to break the 300hp mark as a daily driver. RyanP has connecting rods for sale on his website, but in the motor I have do I need them for my goal?
In a previous thread about cams, it was brought to my attention about valve springs and that I should upgrade those too. At what boost pressure do the stock springs become too soft?
Is anyone still running a stock PD100 5 speed transmission pushing 300hp? Can it even hold that much power?
Any and all advice is appreciated
