To make all this possible, the team applied its in-house turbocharger upgrade and increased the intercooler capacity. They even added a bespoke exhaust system featuring free-flow motorsport grade catalytic converters.

These converters connect directly to the revised turbochargers and it this way they have helped lower the backpressure. The next step is the ECU mapping for the engine and gearbox. It has been carefully calibrated on both the chassis dynamometer.
