Before you put engine in do Clives oil breather catch can drain to sump mod bud. For a track rew car its been my biggest pita. Emptying catch can.
Quite simply high up on bulkhead catch can plumb in normal way but on bottom a drain pipe that goes to front cover of engine.
This does 2 things allows engine oil caught in catch tank to drain back to sump and allows any blowby to escape this route up through catchtank rather than up the filler neck carrying oil with it.
I get zero oil in my catchtank on road but hit the track 250ml every  session. If i fill oil above 3/4 on dipstick ive got a right mess on my hands.

It means drilling a hole for a fitting in the front cover so best when engine out so you can remove sump to clear the swarf..or remove front cover but that has a risk to front torrington bearings.

The IWG EFRs are known for not to be able to hold low boost levels without creeping. My 8374 wouldn't stay less than 0.9 bar. You'll be above 400bhp even at that level on an 8474.

Ahhh i thought they were 340 -400 tops

It literally says 475-750hp on the advert

Thats based on piston engines so the max normally turns down to 80 percent I think when they work it out for us rotards.

So that's 395-600hp.

If it does creep a little bit then I'm sure when the car is mapped they will make sure it's fine for that making it richer in those areas of the map
