Thanks for clearing that up and glad your doing better now.
What car is the new 1000hp engine going into then?
Cheers Paul
Its not going in any car. A technical exercise to try for 1000bhp but retain the low down Torque of my previous engine.
HP = Torque x RPM ÷ 5252. So to achieve 1000bhp @ 8k rpm you would require 657ft-lb of torque at that point. As a rough estimate it will take 54psi of boost to achieve that. So if you maintain 657ft-lb across the range by increasing boost to the required level you
will have 1000bhp @ 8k.
Theres the small problem of it holding together but trick parts & exotic materials have been developed. It will require 2 Map Sensors to give accurate control as 4 bar is approached.
Nothing clever just a Technical exercise will not be easy & ive not seen another without resulting to massive cams & huge ports that would totally destroy the Torque curve.
