    Re: 21T powered GTA

    Ive just got to stick a chargecooler on it, can't decide whether to be clever, and sit it in the old intercooler space, which will involve cutting holes and routing pipework, or simply rotate the comp housing vertical and have it sitting directly over the engine.. Not limited on size of core that way..

    Noo, I dont think Id get one that big in. The 'space' is big enough, but the whole at the top by the spoiler isnt..

    I do a new inbetween core size now which is 5" diameter, and Ive just though as the engine is lower, I could still get a 5x10 across the top of the engine and run a cover too.

    No .
    The V6 is not an easy engine to get power from .Unless you've got HUGE pots of money . All the big power PRVs are twin turbo + you can get very little tuning off the shelf ,it's all one off apart from turbo .......
    An engine transplant is the way to go if you're after some real power ,but that aint my thang ,Id rather get a proper kit car

    And if you had huge pots of money you could fit this (with exhausts and bellhousing) for about £3k..
