Have for now done this to my new C70 :

Tomorrow I will install this :

Then take a break and think that next step could a T16 or T19 turbo with 3" downpipe.
Is there anything I should be aware of ?
Can the engine and gearbox handle the extra power ?

Is this a manual or automatic transmission? Manual you should be ok, but auto 300bhp is close to maximum in my opinion. Recall a guy in Scotland running a TWR modified 850 R manual trans with close to 500bhp. Don't know it the trans was modified in any way though. Probably a racing spec clutch plate (remember they used to race these in the 90's).

Good luck!

Neil.

It`s an automatic.

My goal is around 300 bhp.

Don`t know if it will get there with an other turbo or needs more than that.

Will in the near future get it on a dyno an see.
