    It's not that it's a 2bolt, it's the cast crank. It WILL fail eventually, and can even fail on a stock engine.

    If I were to use, it would be with a forged bottom end. I have listed the kit for sale on here and 3si. I'll find something that suits my needs better.

    Are you dead set on upgrading to td05's? You can EASILY achieve the 500awhp mark on the td04 turbos that are now coming onto the market.

    We are in the process of building our yellow 95 VR4 with our new turbo set-up that will be released in the next few weeks.

    If you would like some more info on it, shoot me a message, and I can give you some details.
    Missed this post, somehow. Sorry about that.

    No, I am not set on anything at thispoint. Was leaning toward the IPS EVO III kit, but nothing set in stoine at all at this point.

    The Stealth I am picking up in a few weeks has 19Ts on it, but they are LMIs and are coming off as soon as I can get my grubby little fingers on them.

    I really don't know what directin I want to go, but I do know that I don't want to tune with Meth or Nitrous or anything like that that i wouild need to keep an eye on. E85 would be OK, but there are no pumps around here.

    Yes, understandable. All two bolt cars (91-92) have cast crankshafts. Even a forged crank will fail eventually. The cast crank isn't made out of tooth-picks and clearly it doesnt fail as soon as you go over 400awhp. Thats all I am saying before people misinform this board.

    500awhp could easily be had with tdo4, however, on a tdo4 setup you will be pushing a LOT more hot air. Therefor something like a tdo5-16g setup could have more lonevity. For OP's power goals.

    Sell and buy dr750's. The 750s were cheaper than that kit, will get the power you want and more and not have the lag of the 06 20g's

    92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD Auto = 10.61@127.8 (1.4 60ft)
    94 3000gt SL 8:1TT 5spd getrag = 11.87@123 (1.8 60ft)
    91 3000gt VR4 13gs = 11.61@115 (1.59 60ft)

    Yes, but why take the riskier path?
