I've been hearing a lot lately that solid renault tappets are the way foward for these redblock engines, any experience of knowledge of them?

my plans have had to change because of finances so im going to do all the hard ware but the software is going to have to wait till next year.so the turbo and rods will be fitted but the standalone will have to wait .so i will not be running the power i wanted to but dont worry the car will be quick but running on standard ecus boohoo lol.but the boost should hit around 24 psi when i put the maff sencer in a 4in pipe .
