Just got home from David Copperfield and damm, He has some skills. Making 8 ppl disappear off stage. Making a car in mid air on stage appear. So much crazy shit.

Was worth the money seeing him.

He's a pole smoker so he will reply.

He races a shitty little tin top standard class car and he loves telling people what the rules are in Dirt Circuit when he has only been racing for 2 years. People like my brother and me have around racing all our lives; dad raced before we were born, and we have been racing ourselves since we were 10. Yet he loves informing us of the rules. He's a pole smoker!

Well i'm pulling the engine out tomorrow to clean some stuff up for Extreme HP Show, so if i have the engine back in i'll make an appearance. I'll be fitting the 264x9.0 cams while the engine is out so it'll be making some more power when it runs next. Hopefully 230-240rwkw @ ~17psi, but at that point the AFM will be at it's limit.

= WIN!

I might also throw some SAU:SA stickers onto it

:D

^^Nice looking bike Ruby ;)

Unfortunately, my mate who bought it off me (and I'm subsequently buying it back off) resprayed it a yellow, red, green theme :D and I'm going to respray it back to its original colours (as in the pic). I gotta source the decals from the UK again ... but thats okay, because the Tyga race system is coming from the UK also. I've got until Feb next year to set this bike up ready for next season. Might sound like enough time, but I'll be working interstate 3 weekends over 3 months and due to missing some local practice days at Mallala, that only leaves me 1 (maybe 2) track sessions for myself to test and tune it.

Yes, thats a runway which goes right thru a major city highway. They shut the highway down everytime a plane needs the runway :thumbsup:

purrs like a kitten still

just think a car like daves old one would be good, there cheap as hell now, less then 9k for a cool one

    • I have an Elite 2500, honestly most of this has been a lot of smaller tasks chasing little details and a whole lot of life getting in the way of bigger projects. I don't mind too much looking at a spectrograph vs having audio knock ears. 
    • Nah nah nah nah. Don't do it. It's not all about the full throttle power delivery. The main "street fun" and drivability gains from smaller rear (in this case) is how you will have boost available from a low rpm when yo just roll onto the throttle. Think jinking in and out of traffic, coming out of roundabouts, etc etc, where you just want to roll onto the throttle a little and have the spooly noise from ~2000rpm and a swell of torque. More of what you've already achieved by going to 2.5. And then, towards the tail end of 2025 you can pull the turbo 4 out and put in a V8 like we originally suggested. :P
    • Cheers for the info mate, I'm old too, 60 years old next May, so a more linear delivery of the 0.86 would be better as baking tyres and snapping heads isn't on the cards for me or the car I assume a more linear power delivery would be better for engine and drivetrain reliability as well, IRT the torque load at lower RPM???, as well as lower EGT's???, if my understanding of that is correct, have I got that right??? I've only got a really basic understanding of turbo sizing and all there characteristics  Cheers for the useful information 
    • What kind of power delivery are you after? If it's nice and linear, the 0.86 would be better. If you're after bake tyres and head snaps on boost the 0.64 would be fun. I'm boring and old, so linear power is preferred. Lately I've been watching videos on Z06 Corvettes and super charged Mustangs.... 
    • I’d go the smaller rear just because you’re staying on 98, if e85 I’d go the bigger one
