#63: Re: Mattie® R3 Turbo Author: Mattie-RS, Location: A Track near you ;)Posted: Sun Feb 28, 2010 5:39 pm ---- most of mine are okay just 10 of them are solid, if he has 10 that are usable then yea Jamie let us know.
Not too sure about that mattie yet, think i will be just re-newing it all with the lowered compression will be okay if i dont run too much PSI

id definately go for the bottom end bolts from arp mate as its easier to do them with the engine in bits imo.Think they need to be countersunk though!
Loving the reading of this though mate, it will be a monster when its done!

to be honest theyre needed for higher revving cars but with a turbo conversion id go the safe route and give the bottom end as much strength as possible so you dont throw a piston after a broken big end shell/bolt.
