Very impressive, which exhaust valves are you using ?.

I use stock valves. With my setup (turbo, compression, boost level, power level etc) I can run reasonable EGT which in turn saves the valves.

Can you post the chart with SAE correction please. What turbo are you running on this? This is very low boost to make that kind of power unless your running a GT40R or something even larger then that. ha ha.
I don't understand this?
450 Ft/lbs (609 NM) with a GT35 through a .82 T3 hits almost EXACTLY where I would expect at 17 psi given his head and a few other things he has disclosed?
Obviously, we look at the torque curve here, judging boost, only the inexperienced will even give the HP a second look regaurding boost/turbo/rpm - but this follows with a nice balance too.
A GT40 ball bearing is a 750 HP compressor, this engine will see close to 500 RWTQ with that compressor, all other things equal, in my experience.
Congrats Duke. You have definitely set the bar on what can be accomplished with a proper 16 valve setup. I think you realize, this makes you a target for a few 16 valve guys . 16 valves with higher compression is the way to go. There are plenty of manufacturers that are already doing this. It's one thing to run 8:1 on a 2 valve head, it doesn't make much sense to run so low on a 16 valve head.
Beautifully done, congrats again and good luck.
Regards.
