Bergenholtz put in a new motor in the pits. To break in the rings, he just set it on the two step and let it pop away while he sat on top of the car. Broke every OEM rule about breaking in an engine.

Check that tiny turbo. T3?

 

wowzers

 

holy crap is the exhaust side big.

 

That turbo is tiny. Looks like at least a T78...?

 

oh... and is that setup A/C compatible?

 

 

His gates dump is the size of our downpipes...

Ok, I'm really whoring this thread. I'll shutup now.

 

That's awesome

 

wow....

 

Thanks for the picture, its going in my archive gallery for sure
Ive heard a lot of the top name guys break their motors in this way, they are the exception to the OEM rules when it comes to breaking in an engine. He definetely could use a bigger turbo, dont you think?

 

The size of his side pipe is bigger than the 18 wheelers.....

 

he is crapping in the engine to bring it up to temp! racer secret, oh btw that turbo looks like a T-25 at best... i dig the oil strainer filter

 

what A/R is that turbine?!?!? like a 5.82 A/R?

yea, small turbo, he needs to upgrade

 

that setup just looks SICK!

 

what were the 2 steps he used ???

 

haha are you serious?

 

i think he might be serious... thats really really funny tho

i like that as much as the guy who built a motor without those "thin metal things on the rods"

that was great. still hoping that was a joke...

 

No, he was using the 2-step rev limiter.

 

hahahah

 

haha, he does what i do, FILIPINO SQUAT workin on the car.

HE can actually say he really works on his car. LOL

 

looks pretty wicked

 

Sweet setup.

EDIT: What size slicks are those? They look like they're taller than hoodline.
