Neil, not so fast about being tried and tested. 650 hp with GT3 heads? Which heads, which valves, which lifters, which cams and which pistons.
To derive 650 hp, it sounds like the Roock RST 650 stayed with the turbo cams and pistons, yet the turbo intake cam won't fit in the GT3 cam housing (exhaust cams are interchangeable). The turbo pistons won't work with the GT3 cam lift and there isn't enough meat to flycut the turbo pistons for the GT3 cam lift. The Gt3 rod length is a tad longer than the turbo's I am aware of all the dimensions along with all the differences between the turbo and all the different GT3 motors. Would you care to discuss further?

Need to get back on topic with the Society Page issues.

Just curious if this amount of power is too much for a 2 wheel drive GT2. Would there be too much wheelspin. I am thinking about purchasing a GT2 and adding a Stage IV or GT700 package from EVOMS.
Would this be worth it or be a waste?

Why JE pistons? I am informed that they are no better than the OEM Mahles (unless you want to change the compression or displacement).

Chad I don’t know all the specifics because the motors are built at the factory in Belgium. I do know that they use different rods,pistons,camshafts etc. This is why they are able to achieve 850hp @1.2 bar.
