Re: Jag IRS info?

I need an axle that will take 400bhp, I have a scimtar axle & as going to use the LSD out of the jag diff for that. But looking at whats required thought I might as well use the jag IRS complete....y...

Re: Single turbo for a 3.9 RV8?

I have a t3 hybrid rated at about 420bhp, Im going to try that, I have a GT30 if I find that too restrictive, although I would like a bit of low end punch that the smaller jobbie will give..
