for whos saftey

Turbo-Beal

400+ bhp If that is true that is fooking impressive But so is yours christian Does that figure include the progresive nitrous kit? if so is it considered a true 400+ bhp car?

100 shot of nos would give 120-150 ish maybe without nos its not happening IMO.

sas

Only if the Nos makes it to the engine.

matt p

Hahaha

That was so funny went that went off!.

matt p

Also probably because he is not afraid of spending a little on a manifold?

Christian and Beccy

iTrader: (14)

£600? a little??

Billy_RS

iTrader: (5)

What manifold you running mate?

Fiecos Dan

i dont see why you keep digging @ Christian.

Its up to him what he spends his money on.


And lets be honest, The 1st hate post you done against him, was on his Management thread, and you was wrong then, so please drop it.

Dan

Not this again, cunts!

Would be nice to see a reply from Stuart, can't see it making 400+ without NOS! Would be some acheivement if it does!

adamS2RST

Agreed! Fuckin bollox all this kicking off all the time! STFU!

rapidcossie

way i see it is that Christians car is consistantly proven the quickest ove the years.

a fantastic power claim is fook all if you cant back it up.

matt p

Was hardly a hate post at all

If i remember rightly not once did i call him anything, just point
out that possibly another reason his engine blew was because of det,

Then all the useal brown nosers popped up and started gettin lairy

matt p

The amount of time and effort that jamie and stuart have put in it
will do the numbers.

Christian and Beccy

iTrader: (14)

Matt, not taking anything anyway from Stuart and Jamie, but it takes ALOT more than time and effort to hit 400bhp from a 1600CVH.

I know that better than most. Remember that's a clear 50bhp more than mine and believe me we tried.

Fiecos Dan

Sorry, I'm not a mate of Christian's, and never meet him,
So i'm not butting in because of who he is, Just that you were wrong.

There are NO signs of Det on his engine, and if you knew what you was talking about, you would of too.

And it seems from how i read it, all you was trying to do is cause trouble.
If i'm wronge, sorry, but thats how it seemed.

Christian and Beccy

iTrader: (14)

In addition to what I just said above, I know that Stuart and Jamie have put time, effort and alot more into his car. I didn't want that to be taken as though time and effort is ALL they have put into it!!

crazycage

have i missed something here ??det? and your enging blowing up?????

matt p

No worries.

Its the next step though, it was not long ago that people would laugh
at you for saying you were trying to squeeze 300bhp out of a 1600cvh

Yes, my engine failed at the PF Thrash. It was head-gasket failure or something like that.

Have you been watching Fast & Furious..should have continued with this...

I always thought say a 100 shot of nos gave you slightly less than 100?

ie 50 shot = approx 40ish hp, 100 shot = 80ish hp, and so on...

Can anyone confim the actual gains you get when using nos? Does it give the power it says on the tin? Or more? Less?

Cheers

on n/a cars you will get slightly less but on turbo cars on a 50 shot you'll be looking at 60hp more and 80fbt.... 100 shot you could be looking at anything from 120 -150hp gain.
this is all achieveable with a wizard of nos kit not with one of the american brands.

There are so many benefits running nitrous on turbo charged cars especially for people who are into drag racing.
You might want to Consider nitrous not just because of the extra power nitrous can Generate nitrous is so Beneficial for turbo charged cars. Turbo cars are far safer on nos due to the cooling effect which prevent detonation
Nitrous its unbelieveable stuff, you could possibly drop a second on your ¼ mile times. On gas i have no lag what’s so ever. Apart from more power, how would you like FULL BOOST at any RPM? Maximum power from the second you push the pedal? Because it totally removes all turbo lag - completely! Full power/boost from idle RPMs upwards! Stand on the gas and GO!
The nitrous initially provides the go, but this makes a lot of exhaust gas that spins the turbo up fast! Sudden boost too! Because if used as a "turbo lag remover" the nitrous is turned off as soon as boost is achieved via a manifold pressure switch, so the bottle lasts AGES! that’s if you wanted the nos for this Purpose (i didn’t) PEAK power can be drastically improved - if used normally (on all the time @ full throttle) rather than just to eliminate the turbo lag. charge cooling effect gives a measure of safety and prevents detonation, meaning higher turbo boost pressures can be used. and it also means a much bigger turbo can be used! with large turbos so much time is lost through lag after a gear change the turbo might take a second to spin up, this wont happen with nos. personally I think trying to run 2.4 bar and nitrous will cause him problems especially on a 8v head the engine will produce so much exhaust gases will be head be able to get rid of the cylinder gases before the next charge comes in maybe Stuart should do the testing before adding anything to his sig? would be good if he can achieve this because the car does look the part. just needs the times to back up his claims

turboboss , is your motor a zetec or a zvh mate ?

think i spoke to you before about importing some rods and pistons from the usa and u were giving me advice bout it bud

just wondering what block ur using , ist it a black top or a silver top ??

any suggestions on witch to go for ,

thanks bud

Badman38

iTrader: (2)

hi m8

its a zvh form a silver top zetec if you are starting from scratch then go full zetec. it will work out cheaper then a properly built zvh only.
reason i went dowm the zvh route was because i spend so much moey on my cvh head. either black or silver top will do does'nt really matter which one, purchase your rods and pistons from the states steel rods and a set of pistons can be brought for under £500. even cosworth steel rods retail for £288

thanks

sean

iTrader: (6)

yeah sean mate , got a girlfriend in the usa so hoping to either bring them home with me after a visit , or save some import duty buy having them sent home as a gift ,

rods a easy to get , but did u have ur pistons specced in the usa ? or did u buy them and have them machined to the correct c/r ??

just asking cos just looking at a piston rod combo on the us ebay and the c/r is for a n/a engine

any thoughs

thanks

p.s sorry for hiijacking the thread peeps

Badman38

iTrader: (2)

nah m8 i just brought the pistons off the shelf maybe not the cleverest thing to do with my cvh head at first i had a c/r 8:4:1 so i had no choice but to use a 1.2mm de-comp plate giving me 7:8:1. the americans dont like low comp engines.
machining the chambers would cost you £180 i dont know off hand how much cc you would gain or just buy pistons with the correct c/r 9:0:1 alot of the ameicans call that low comp lol

stuarts not going to answer because he wants us to think that he has 400 without nos
