Awesome result,
Iam also thinking of fitting the gearset to replace the lower timing chain.
Has anyone had or heard any horror storys about these kits failing .
Turbotoy, was that power figure on an engine dyno? or was it on a chassis dyno?
YelloRolla's KE20 1/4mi = 11.32 @ 119mph @ 22psi on slicks
12.44 @ 113 mph on 165 wide street tyres
210rwkw - not bad for a smelly 3TGTE running pump fuel.
Chassis dyno.

Turbotoy, Well Done!
Thanks for sharing the specs turbotoy! Very nicely played sir!
I had been going to ask as I knew there was a smattering throughout the 3TGTE thread but hard to put it all together.
It is on E85 right?
Aaannnnnd if you don't mind me asking what boost level???
Cheers,

479RWHP on 50psi and 70psi hasn't broken her at the track!
E85 yes and 24psi.

Specs on his web site just 3tc rods. Not sure why he took them out one of the best available!

From memory, my mate was talking about the cross-sectional strength of the x-beam rods being a lot less than that of I-beam ones. He gave me a link ages ago that explained the math behind why I-beams are heaps stronger than the same sized H-beams and when inputting the dimensions of the x-beams, the I-beams still won out. Definitely no having a go at your rod choice, I was just interested in finding out your opinion on them.
As got the specs, any idea what they weigh? The website doesn't list the weight (and I'm assuming they weigh less than my I-beams due to their design).
Cheers.
