      The R&D has been done on my Mainline roller. Need to put it on one of those Sydney hub dynos and post a graph with hp rather than kw for the promotional material. Because numbers.

      All you really need to know is that the Coyoda system makes more power down low than a twin screw supercharger and walks away from other turbo kits up top, while running cooler on less boost.

      If you have the engine internals, 400 flywheel kw is probably achievable. Good luck with the driveline.

        I've lost count of how many turbos have been on it. We first tried with off the shelf turbos, but have finished up getting them made to our spec. The BR86-Street turbo is very similar to a GTX2863R though. It will make all the power a stock engine can reliably handle.

          to put a round number on it are we talking a comfortable 200rwkw?

            To be honest 200rwkw is over a 50% increase and more than enough for a daily driven street car. I'd imagine for a lot of us considering this it's a choice between a turbo or a trade in for a Focus RS or Golf R, and the 86 should be faster and more sideways.

            Much limitation sticking with 98 octane? There's e-flex but no E85 out my way.

                Comfortably more than 200rwkw

                  That's testing on the BR86-Track, not a final tune. Boost will come on a lot earlier with the Plex controller set up.

                  The turbo and components are good for at least another 100kw. The stock engine internals obviously are not.

                  A stock one makes about 95rwkw on my dyno. Other turbo setups make 180-200 at similar boost levels.

                  We have always known the design was good, but the final product is working even better than expected.

                    So how much are we talking for a set up?

                      It's better to ask forgiveness than seek permission.... Just saying ...

                          Would rather have factory kw and 350Nm

                            So you'd like a diesel 86

                              Maybe they could change it to FWD, add torque vectoring to make it look like you can drive, put in a pretty interior and add a few race stripes to give it proper cafe cred.

                                My B Class is FWD 155kw & 350Nm - the 86 is just crying out for torque
