Yep - Will def. have to go out in Shaun's mowtah! - Real shame I don't have that external wastegate - May have to ask Simon if he can fit another... :D

I've rang Thor up, but Pete and Lyndon are out road-testing - Will ring in an hour or so... :)

As for Rockingham, the woman rang me back asking for engine size - Halfway through the conversation it clicked that she was gonna stick me on a track session with 1600-1800cc cars - I thought it wise to mention the BHP...

After double-checking that she'd heard right, she said that she'd check with the organiser about re-classifying me... :D (Didn't want 15 minutes of trying to overtake what were probably going to be MUCH slower cars
(XR3i's, RS Turbo's etc... ) :D :p

Cheers Rob! - Yep 442 at the fly equates to more at the wheels - most places factor in an 18% transmission loss on older r/wheel cars like the S12...

Haven't got a calculator, but 442.5 *1.18 should give the answer?...

(Just checked - 521.56) - close enough.... :D


Yep - My f*ckup on the way round - That should have been 442.5 at the wheels equates to 521.56 at the fly - Still yet to confirm that Thor's heading was wrong!

but it would have been funny slaughtering them underpowerd moters:D , surely you can have an external wastegate fitted, mines only a t 3/4oe, but got an external wastegate, i wun't be without one now, the noise exites me :D ,den, that silvia when you took me out was a beast;)

Heh heh - I loved the noise too - Way glad you still remember the trip mate! :D - we'll do it again matey - I didn't order those bloody calipers though - Will do so tomorrow if I can - D'oh! (Got my replacement studs from Nissan though! :) )

Good news! - I checked with Thor, and Lyndon said that the heading IS incorrect for my graphs, and that the figure for the flywheel should be calculated by using a multiplier, which they don't use for most setups.

Thor therefore normally leave it set to 1.0 (i.e. the same amount - What it *should* be for my Silvia is 1.18 (i.e. 18% transmission loss (it's the figure that reads 1.0 on the graph, and is called TCF - It's to do with the transmission loss calculation, to put the extra horses BACK into the equation, as Thor measure power from the wheels.)

Hopefully that clears it up! - So, as I say, I deffo had at LEAST 520BHP when the graph was printed... :D

( Incidentally, Lyndon mentioned that he's ordered himself a Hyper-bearing turbo for his Supra, which he says starts making boost from as little as 1,000rpm! :eek: gimmee sum o' dat! :D )

andy at AMT engines did a head for paul whiffins supra that produces over 800lbs/ft and near on 1000bhp and thats with a little tubby.:D

Heh heh.... Little tubby, whacking great engine! (CC-wise... :D ) - I think we can be proud of what our little 1800's are running in comparison... :p (If we had an extra 1200cc (or possibly even more - i.e. 1500-1600cc extra, depending on that Supra's possibly increased capacity?) - Then I daresay it'd give us the ability to push a similar amount of horses - i.e. Just saying that per CC, I think that I'm running near as much BHP... :D

Soon as my car is mapped fully and everythings settled il be doing a power run so il put my graph up asap:)

wacomuk 16-12-2006 10:57

179.0 bhp 1st run. with some fannying about 2nd run 199.8bhp
http://images.cardomain.com/member_i...5_193_full.jpg
175.8 lb 1st run 205.1 2nd run
http://images.cardomain.com/member_i...5_194_full.jpg

this was my old silvia (RIP)

CAR MODS:
standard t2 running 1bar
1 bar actuator
Volvo 740 IC and water rad front mounted
k&n air filter
custom made SS exhaust (1box)
walbro fuel pump
timing set to 15DBTC (on dyno)
plug gaps made smaller, got an extra 5bhp
i had a timing kick back system @12 psi it took the timing to 10DBTC the guy at the dyno told me to get rid of it, so I did the next day
after the run i set my timing to 17DBTC it gave more low down power, i never got any detonation

where you had that, folded up in ya back pocket,lol.

i ran mine on saturday, i got 185.9bhp at the flywheel and 185 ft/lb torque, but is running lean at the top, so i am thinking that i need to get some bigger injectors and/or a better fuel pump - ill get the graphs up later, but for now heres an action shot -
