Yeah, the old sticking a river through a straw, making high EGTs and lots o back pressure. IE, detonation city if pushed above 310-315whp on pump gas, 340-350 on race. Bigger compressor, biggerturbine, same results + Lag.
Good news is that 600whp is going to feel that much more impressive now. Woot woot

I will inspect my manifold to see it has any inherited cracks in it from the EGT's... No more childish straw sucking for me though and 600whp is a but lofty... I'll be content with an effortless 500whp...

Of course I'm looking for someone on the east coast that stocks a poly snub that can ship it out today...

OBI- If you want a free new reinforced Rubber snubber I ordered one for my 200 and when I went to put it in I realized I had a new one in already.
Free for you my friend - it's sitting in the 200's door pocket.

The bottom bracket is installed wrong in the photos. It should point upwards to support the mount

Really? I actually had 2 people specifically point this out as the proper placement. I was under the same impression as I thought it should go in the notch... How'd you figure it the other way?

It's obvious. The plate provides no support to the mount if it is upside down.
Google photos of the mount if you don't trust me
