Found it! there is a bit of info in alot of his post just not all in one spot...
Candellan is the man to speak to he did 2 versions of the motor one with stock thin spaghetti ca20e rods and the other with the mitsubishi 4g63 150mm rods or close to that length. He was revving to 6500rpm with the stock prepped italian noodle rods but surely could go more but he wanted a reliable beast and did quite well compared to his upgraded sr20det.

Is the exhaust manifold on the FWD turbo different a little more forward or all the same? pretty much want a lighter inlet manifold custom made as I have some ideas Id like to implement for lpg using a clean lightweight mitsubishi diesel equal length manifold.
