I see it has TEAM clutch, I dont see any info that says this is YAM build 2s engine, did you?
Would this be the CAT 2s engine possibly? Grrrrr

Why is this news? I see nothing new.Did anyone catch the info on new turbos.....
High Tech Turbo
The Nickel alloy turbine body is extremely strong and precise, able to withstand highly elevated temperatures. Supported by premium, ceramic ball bearings, the Inconel turbine blade assembly is very light and strong. This yields a low moment of inertia for lightning quick response to exhaust gas input. Triple throttle bodies are used exclusively to further enhance the quick delivery of compressed air from the impeller to intake valves.
