What's the setup on the motor (if you don't mind me asking... if you'd rather not let the competition in on the build, I understand)? You say it's a higher compression, and a 35r turbo... is the whole block Cosworth? What's the base compression, 9.5:1?

I'm asking 'cause I have to rebuild my motor this winter and I'm turbo shopping. Since I'm doing similar racing as you guys with the L, I'm curious about your setup. But I'm only looking for 350-375 whp but with a really wide powerband so I'm not sure about the turbo to pick...

I'm leaning towards the Perrin GT30R kit... but I'd like to know waht sort of lag you're seeing with the 35R on a higher compression motor. If my pistons are shot, I'll have the option of going higher compressions as well.
