That's it exactly. Advan and Vishnu partnership has served many of us well.

Will be interesting when the single turbo cars start prowling the streets.

As long as it does not end up in the basement next to Kenny's old girl.

Patience grasshopper!

Thanks Peter for the extra KWs! A nice smooth power curve which I definately notice on the road. Well worth the trip out to WA to collect this one. Can't wait to get it on the track as the suspension has been completely modded as well!

Brakes are pretty good with upgraded slotted rotors though it is probably the weak point. I guess the track will show what it really can do...

Question: I know it depends on how I drive it, though what kind of longevity (if I can use that word) can I expect to get out the engine. It currently has 42k on the clock.

The engine will outlast the turbos.

Yes I heard that they weren't exactly reliable. Any knowledge of good after market pumps which would last longer than the stock one?

No, there has been talk but afaik there is no upgrade

Nice power!

Guys, do you know any after market CV joints which I can use on the 335 which are stronger than stock? Mine broke last week and I want to source some stronger ones as I don't want this to happen again. I think the 355rwkw's doesn't help the cause!

Cheers,

Chris.

There are a few co's in the usa who offer upgraded shafts and joints, but generally you have to send in your originals to have this done.

Perhaps you can source some used in the usa and have them sent to the shop for machining and upgrades?

Out of curiosity are you running an lsd? I have a wavetrac lsd for sale that would definitely help minimise wheel hop which is a contributing factor for what kills the diff and half shafts etc

Have a squiz at these:

those DSS ones + an LSD and the defiv lockdown kit + M3 rear subframe bushings would be everything possible available on the market right now that would minimse hop/snapped axles. the DSS shafts are built for some sorta ridiculous WHP/torque levels.
