    free Callaway Bump,

    I also see you have left out CIS . can you tell me more about the setup ? PSI and more

    To CallawayTurbo:

    The motor was originally CIS but the car was digifant II. I used the computer from a G60 Corrado with a Bahn Brenner chip because it has a built in MAP sensor to read the boost. I put the newer style injector sleeves in the head to install the Bahn Brenner injectors for the digifant fuel injection.

    thanks, do you have any more details ?
    like partnumbers on bahnbrenners articles

    this is information that other Callaway owners could advice how to "upgrade" cis to digifant of standalone.

    also very excited to know about numbers, was it dynoed ?
    how much boost are you running and what estimate HP and Nm

    please email me all photo's you have available for documentation , garage invoices etc etc.
    and please consider taking a ride with someone and a videocamera or smartphone (top down and radio off)

    To Callaway:

    Car made 202Hp at the wheels with 15psi of boost. I have it turned down to 13psi just to be safe. It made 187Hp at that boost. I was looking for a kit they used to make for the Corrados that made the computer run in warm up mode under boost so I could get more fuel and turn it up to 18psi to see what it does!!! The car is actually very quiet even under boost and the wastegate dumps back into the down pipe to keep it quiet. I hade a blowoff valve on it for a while but then it sounded too much like a rice rocket so I took it back off...

    If you want you want more information, email me at avance26@aol.com and I will answer any questions I can to help you with your project...
