Yea I have been a tad quiet since blowing up the 24v! haha, the 75 is collecting dust while I try to collect some money!

Patzo_3L who occasionally posts here had his GTV6 setup with std internals single turbo with power steering and it was a fkn quick machine! I think you will find forced induction or massive stroke/bore increase is the only way to get real torque low down. Hell, the 24v makes peak torque at 5500rpm.

What transaxle do you have? 4.11? If not, cheapest upgrade
