Just a thought Peter, when you are finshed testing your forged motor. Give us the right data on the parts used, and maybe the sponsors in here could make an exact "aps tt forged engine kit" this way the members who has bought the kit can copy your setup an use your pcm map file for the new "forged" engine they are longing for.
Hopefully one of the sponsors in here will act on this, an give us members a very nice

price on the "aps tt forged engine kit".

But as I say just a thought

So far yes it is holding fine. No issues with the clutch at this time. Over 700 miles on it with the turbo's so far and still counting. Been on the dyno and to the strip and DD'd the rest of the days.
