Hi

My engine was Dynoed today at Norris Designs. I will give the figures & a few thoughts on the day, full results etc will be posted later.
Mark had promised 600bhp/500ft/lb with the probable help of race fuel.
That was not required & on Pump Fuel (Optimax) it made 613.8bhp & 507.8ft/lb this was achieved with 32psi of Boost. Higher Boost was not tried because Mark/Simon agreed we had hit the 'sweet spot' so the champagne was broken out or in this case tea.
The use of Optimax was verified by two non madette personel , who i expect will post when they read this.
The car is jetted to run 150shot of Nitrous , which Mark pointed out meant 764bhp in the car on pump fuel at all times .

We then moved on to the race fuel, which made gains in Torque & horsepower & saw 600+ way past 7.5k. The gains were not spectacular however & for totb3 Mark declared 764 enough (pussy) . However a future Topspeed attempt may see us using the ' hard stuff'.
Rod

 

TOP stuff Rod, good to see the cars at the local meets sometime soon

 

 

Outstanding results Rod.. congratulation's on her completion

 

AVE IT !

 

Sounds the bollox

Whats the spec ?

Mark

 

well done rod,

but i remember you sying it would be 600 ibs , did you not have near on 500 ibs before?

lets hope your rear tyres are up to it and its going to fly!

 

Congrats.

Now time to varify those figures on the black dyno

 

some people are just so crazy

 

I thought your car was fast before. Nice one rod.

PS Can i blag another ride in it?

 

well done rod

 

 

Those figures certainly make for some impressive reading.

Great work.

 

TOP ROD!!!

lol
no pun intended!

 

Whats the saying can never have too power

(says Less with the 150Bhp RS2K)

 

excellent result m8, glad all the work u + mark put in2 it has paid off

 

Nice one m8

 

Good results Rod very good

THe NMS shoot out should be interesting as Without NOS the NMS 3 door has more power so be interesting if it beats it

 

How much way past 7.5k were you also ?

My engine does just under 8k and karls does well

 

Would be interesting to see what both cars can do. Was going to suggest a grudge match feature but i think both cars deserve full features and a place on the cover.
We would of course be happy to time both cars when you are ready for a feature.

 

Well done ALL involved, What race fuel do you use Rod, we might be able to supply you something else to try as Hauser's are the UK VP Race Fuels dealers

 

outstanding figures rod

well done

 

very impressive rod ..lets see how well it does on the black stuff

 

awesome figures there rod

well done mark, for yet again another top spec motor

 

totally awesome day out, thanks to simon norris and co for putting up with our constant tea demands and minor fabrications

thx to sunny for helping us out as i left my wallet at home
mark/rod

awesome,100% spot on what was acheived today, even the evo boys were surprises

 

Awesome, well done Rod. looking forward to TOTB... hopefully we can show the Skylines a thing or two

 

Very Good Rod!

Not to steal your thunder, My tuner called me today sounded very happy!!! I just made 561HP At the wheels!! it was at 8300 rpm and 26lbs of boost! without NOS aswell!! that is a very special XR he has

 

 

Nice one and before July as Mark said

 

FOOOKIN HELLLLL!!!!!!

 

Dingy
It made 600 at 6.2k & was still 608 at 7.5k(race fuel)) where the graph stops ,think the limiter will be at 8k, cant give Power above 7.5 as it aint on the graph. Im down from the clouds now so remove 'way past ' .

 

I've got a feeling this is going to be a very long post

 

Danny, wont be using race fuel, as the figures were made on pump fuel.
Mark has the fuel if we require it for a future Topspeed event.
Thanks for the offer.
Whats the latest position with your engine ?.

 

Thanks lee, im just proud to join you over 600brake, was sweating a bit on the final run as your figure was obviously the Target, had to wait for the figure as it was hard to tell in the flurry of numbers, bit close though.
Should now make totb as Mark will not be leaving my house till its finished. .

 

Nice one Rod and Mark. She's gonna rip up the tarmac.

 

Nice one!

Pleased for you Rod.

 

Just require fuel rail,inlet fitting, exhaust fitting and ECU and she'll be a runner again As for spec I've took a step back for a couple of months, internally the engine has it all but it's on a T34 for now so 400hp area I guess, but I also has a big nitrous tune up of which I might post pics later

Will be good to see your car in action soon then

 

well done

 

Well done Rod, pleased that all the hard work/time/money has paid off!

 

Rod,
Fantastic! Any chance of posting all the figures at all the rpm increments, as you know nowadays, I'm just as interested in driveability as out right power ( - comes with age ).
