Yes i'm pretty happy with it. Would have been better to have done that in the first place instead of have the head off twice and waste $4,000.
Oh well i guess thats half the fun... Thats it for now.... i would love to do the clutch and exhaust and top 500rwkw or even 1000hp at the motor but i have to start sacrificing drivability for the sake of power by getting really big turbo's etc... so not worth it for my daily driver.

That's a nice flat torque 'curve'.
Is it streetable at that power/torque level, or do you turn it down for 'round town. I'd be imagining traction problems with 1300NM. I get enough wheel spin with ~440NM and 235's.

Low boost is 10psi and 306rwkw which is more drivable, comes on very smoothly without stepping the back of the car out left or right... Mainly because the torque doesn't get too high, not sure on exact figure but more managable..

I spoke with the clutch guy this morning. He says mine is in good condition and they are rated for 330rwkw everyday use.
I am looking to upgrade mine if i can sell my current one. Not sure if there will be any interest but it is in good condition and as you all know i do not drag or do quarter's in it so it has not been slipped. Approx 45,000km use, welcome to test drive, This clutch is rated for 330rwkw everyday use. Looking for $600, cost $1,300 landed in Vic I will be getting a single plate 11" clutch rated at 400rwkw or maybe a little more depending on how much extra money i can scrape together.

dude if u are stoked with the car now, why not wait till u can get an awesome clutch and zorst and do them at the same time.... maybe 2 months later or something?
u dont have to try and mod the thing insanley all at once. if u do it now u wont see as much benefit as if u do it 2-3 months down the track once u get used to your setup now...

I am keen to get some more power, another 100rwkw wouldn't hurt 2. More importantly i want to keep the current clutch in good condition so i can sell it and get one that i can use on a daily basis at max power if needed (never know when you will be called upton to blow off a supercharged Holden 8) At the moment driving around on low boost to keep the power around 300rwkw until i can sell this clutch off. Might have to use the tax return on it.

If you break it you bought it, and believe me if it was a write off it would cost a heap to get one built to the same spec...
