good buy, this is a awesome stock frame setup for sure. We have sold a ton of these and everyone who uses it seems to be very happy

Can you guys provide more feedback on which cam setup works best with this turbo for a mivec head? Are the new HKS cams worthwhile or better off selling them and getting S2s? Thanks.

We actually have not had a chance to test the new HKS cams with this setup yet. Obviously HKS does a ton of R&D on their parts so im sure their cam setup will provide a good combo with the 7460 turbo. We dont like to use the S2 cams on smaller turbos so i would say that either the HKS or kelford 272 would give the best powerband for the turbo

yes it should be still installed in the car. Last i heard from someone the owner blew engine at a road course event. But we never had any problems with the turbo.

Interesting... I wonder what caused the failure on this "self-built" motor.

Did the motor bite the dust while on pump or E85?

we tuned the car on pump gas. i doubt it was on e85 since its hard to get in this area so i would imagine it was on pump but cant be sure it was a long time ago when we did this test.
As far as the motor I have no idea im pretty sure he did a drop in build on it.

Do you recall a 05 MR Forced Fed Performance modified with GT3076 turbo, is the HKS7460 better in every perspective?
