Agreed on wall thickness though, not a fan of significantly increasing the bores on these motors since most of them get a lackluster tune after stroking anyway. That makes the additional .1 or .2L worthless.

I agree a stroker rotating assembly can easily be lighter than stock, but for sure a stock bore/stroke forged internal build would be even lighter than that. A little stroke would help spool the turbos faster but properly sized turbos on a 4L V8 should have little to no lag anyways.
This interesting gentleman is not even in the efficiency range of those turbos yet. Once he pushes past 20PSI is when this thing will really start making serious power.
OP: What turbos are you running again? |
