I do like that oil cooler and the position of it that gives me good idea where to fit one and what kind to get.
Awesome guys

[@WaysidePerformanceLtd]

Thanks! We will actually be releasing this oil cooler as a kit with all brackets, fixing etc. early in the new year!

How much would this engine build cost?

[@darylstafford8366]

Is the block mod worth doing ? Why do these engines crack liners ?

[@WaysidePerformanceLtd]

It doesn't stop it from happening completely but it definitely seems to reduce the chance of it cracking.
It is just a weak point in the engine blocks without much reinforcement there, causing it to micro flex and eventually crack.
I have seen them crack with block mod before, but in my experience, the vast majority of cars that we saw with cracked liners did not have block mod done

[@RichardDommett]

how much are we looking at for this build and turn around time ?

[@WaysidePerformanceLtd]

Hi, thanks for the interest but it's not a service that we offer anymore unfortunately. Thank you, Chris

C est bien ce que je penser c est un 6 cylindre bien bien ❤ 😂

[@RickBray]

did you run the engine in or straight on dyno n send it ?

[@jaap1603]

Good job, how much time did it take from start to finish? (i have a stage 2 focus mk2 st)

[@WaysidePerformanceLtd]

Thanks! Due to some major delays with bearings this build took around 7 months total but we would normally hope to turn something like this around in 10-12 weeks :)

[@ga002078]

Is this turbo should able to make nearly 500hp?

[@WaysidePerformanceLtd]

We have had nearly 500hp from the 'Stage 3' RS hybrid turbos before but this one is a 'Stage 2' and seemed at it's optimum where it's currently at
