Rolex, why did you build a 3.0L engine? As much HP as possible?

Anyway, how does it going with the VR ST5 turbo?? Have you installed it yet?

Why? Because I'm a zillionaire and I'm bored!

All my updates are on my web site too. You have a 3.0L, right? How is that going?

I think we should happy for the guy. Every one has different ways of looking for power. It does'nt matter if it is a highly boosted 1.5 L4 or a big bad BOSS 604 ci, is all power. We should not criticise him.

Regards,
AL

I definately am not a board when I'm bored. They are mutually exclusive.

Yes, I have a 3L in my garage at the moment. It needs some work before I can put it in my car thought. Looking forward to trie that one out! I`ve got pretty much the same engine setup as you. LR ST3 head(in upgrade mode at the moment), LR intake, LR ST2 IC, LR fuel-rail, 3L etc etc. (YEAH, one time in my life I was a LR worshiper to

)
Therefor I`m very interested in how things work out for you!

The 3L engine setup is on hold at the moment, because I wanted to turbo charge the 16V head, but the 16V head I got didnt include the "cam bridges"(that secure the cam to the head)!! Equals useless head!

And 16V head isnt so easy to find down here.

Black Arrow: Good luck with building that 3.0L. So, you're another sucker for spending tons of money like me?

Some of our mods are the same, but some are very different. For a complete list of mine, visit my web site. It's always updated. After you read all of it and have any questions, please feel free to PM me if you like, ok?

And thanks God NZ951 isn't here, he would be killing you on being a Lindsey poster boy too, ha!
