Single Turbo Rover V8 3.5 Triumph TR7 Build

The full throttle issues was caused by having a restrictive carb hat on it. Changed that out and it runs great. Will get it back to the dyno shortly.

Had to cut a hole in the hood to get the new carb hat to fit, this is a short term solution and I will come up with something a bit more astheically pleasing shortly.

Here is a quick 3rd 4th gear pull. Car runs strong and am expecting 275-325whp when I get it back to the dyno.

Car is currently running 11psi through all gears. Plan to move it up to 15psi once meth injection is installed.

Should have dyno numbers in a few weeks.

Thanks

No numbers yet. I am going to square a few small things away before I bring it back to the Dyno. Should have numbers in a few weeks. I expect 275-325 on 11-15lbs of boost.

Thanks
