[br3tt]

Thats an awesome result dude.. congrats.

[msnismo]

ah finally a power figure

Congrats..... I thinks that power will satisfy you for all of say a month !!!

btw... any more boost left in the turbo out of curiousity??? or is it at its peak???

But this at least makes me get off my ass and get my final tune done..... 306rwkw just isn't the same as it was last month !!! You were right I need more boost!!! Looks out, my lil 25 is chasing your figure

[sh@un]

Shaun will no doubt post up what he thought in detail...

May as well

Yeah, the wet-road acceleration in 2nd and 3rd gear is best described as 'hilarious', at least thats the effect it had on us. lol

It's a fairly tractable engine- You can feel the torque curve really starting to swell just before 3500rpm, then it gets more serious at 3800, and goes absolutely manic from 4000... and flings the needle from there to 7000 in a blink while all four tires break traction in the wet

It should be an epic thing in the dry; a real workout for the neck muscles. If it ever stops raining for more than 30 minutes at a time, that is =P

It's going to require an ECU change to run the last 5 or so pounds of boost that the turbo can run efficiently, but I reckon that, combined with cams and a better intercooler and some silicone lower hoses should see around 550rwHp (410rwkW) without too much trouble. That would only take the injectors to ~90% duty cylcle too, which leaves plenty of safety margin.

Time for that dry-sump setup now...

Got the obligatory shot of the manifold glowing tomato-red during some constant load tuning-

I was definitely laughin in the car tonight and not from excitement. I said come back when it's dry and then I might stop trying to push my feet through the floor.

[lingeringsoul]

[Haysey]

[NYTSKY]

Good stuff Steve. 2 years is a hell of a long time to wait. Ive waited 6 months so far with my car,thats bad enough!

We need specs,i know they are here somewhere but please jog our memories.

Yeah, finally - It had 240hp when we rocked up, so thats what it had when it was at your last

Yeah its cranking along, almost at daves figure (only 30kw more to go), but he has cams and cam gears etc so ill do the same and try and match his crazy thing

5 psi left in it, but cause its on stock cams and gears i figured its got a fair bit more to do before using the last 5psi, i want 400kw at the treads for this car. Next car will have a bit more but use a to4z with a huge rear housing and stay 2.6L

You DO need more boost, but you also may need more traction Which is something i dont have to worry about

Thats cool, chase mine
