The following is 14psi vs 17psi. looks like 14psi is max'ed out on his 2560 as +3psi only got him 11hp but more torque obviously. I cool setup would be 17psi tapering to 14 at redline, if he wanted to push the reliability too.

Also, I made 268rwhp @12psi with the 2560 on the same dyno and a theoretically less flowing manifold, stock '94 1.8. ABSURDflow parts help a lot in getting your goals. My 2560 spooled almost as good as Jes' 2554'ed 1.8 with BEGI parts.

Can you dudes point me to the thread on Ed's car? And I will hunt out Paul's, as well.
Thanks, Arty, Brain, and Tim, for the info. I have something to work with and work toward. I just got a call from my engine builder, he has yet to crack the case yet. I'm very anxious to see what I end up with. I am thinking of this build as a test bed to see what the upper limits of that 2560 is, and sooner or later will be in for all new plumbing on the intake side to see if that helps us out. For now, it's all '97 bottom and top end, and I will probably use the summer to build up a nice 99 head. Once the 1.8 is built I will have no problem running it at 17psi+, so we'll see what that will put out.

and I really don't get how people take pictures on their builds, my hands get so greasy when I work on my car I could never take pictures.

My build threads got deleted by Philip. I had one for the twins and for Paul's car, at least for the turbo/downpipe/exhaust side of it.
Let me find saint_foo's is still here, let me find it...

I did find Paul's:

And a pic of Paul's first turbo setup (MSM based, ohh nice downpipe I didn't remember making that) and the twins on his car which lasted about 15 miles.

You guys are the best.
Tim, I'll probably be calling on you when I can scrape a few schekel together after my winter build. Maybe when I'm building up my as yet un-acquired 99 head. I think I really want to keep the 2560 for spool in autox, and seeing I can probably make 300+/- with a new IM and some other goodies makes me hopeful.
