Time to get down there...then go home for a swim....then go back. Living 5 minutes away ftw :cool:

lucky bugger im 1hr away. didnt fair so well, 268rwhp bout 60hp down on where i should be. i dont like hot weather :P

Very interesting day. Hot as hell and some cars really suffered from it. I will let Paul post power results later, or I can do it if he wants.

Big thanks has to go to Paul for organising it. There was a huge turnout, the boys at autoworx were great. Very impressed with the service.

Thanks to Paul for organising and autoworx for the facilities!

200.0rwhp, woot lol. Now need to shed around 400kg to make it competitive...

Oh yeah, that vid when I recorded mine, Paul thinks he's a chicken. Link

Thanks for organising it guys. Unfortunatley I was all show and no go, 188.2 RWHP considering I was running low boost on a hot day I suppose I can't complain. Once I boost it up it should be a little more responsive :P

Yesss, only 50hp more than me :P

Great turn out, cheers to Autoworx and the Committee for organising it

I came close, but i think the GTR's may have just edged me :P

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
