I just came by to say hi! I hope some of what I'm doing can help you guys. Your welcome to copy/paste any information you feel would benefit the Vehicross community.
I'm aiming to twin turbo the 6VD1@10psi on the stock 9.8:1 pistons and rods. I've tuned custom FI setups with both the EMS (standalone) and the FIC (piggy) and the FIC is very capable of FI tuning on this engine while maintaining OBD2 emissions. My hopes my be high but if I pull it off, more power to Isuzu. I think it's a great engine despite some of it's *manageable* flaws. Yes, the pistons are getting drilled but my engine is on the bench for a bit until I find a crank. Mine wound up having a badly worn thrust bearing.
I'll try and find the info about the 800+ HP build. It's some company out of Australia and I spoke with the owner about it. The only thing to note was it used a stock crank. I personally find that hard to believe but I'll know soon enough if it'll hold the ~380hp I'll put though it.
Here it is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5tE55DAFKo It's owned by Luke Amanatidis. If you find any more info on it keep me posted.
Looks like he has some traction issues but it's scootin'. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYQqY2V0MuI
