my old 1 was pushing 400,
but i dont realy think it was set up safe
so depends how long you want it to last i suppose

iTrader: (1)

i've pissed over 400 twice now..............but how true are r/r'ds.............???

westus1

iTrader: (6)

well mine actualy said 420 on the rollers but i was taking a bit off to account for the shady rollers
as it also done just over 300 at the wheels on ava rollers on the same set up not long after

Engine dyno verified 385bhp / 403lb ft.

Tarmac verified 172mph / 12.64 @ 115mph standing quarter.

Also the most power/speed achieved on four 803 injectors that I am aware of .

No reliability issues what-so-ever.

sounds about right to me, mine was on greys and surging like fuck to
didn't know any better back then
sayin that what makes me think i know any more now? lol

thanks for your repleys the chap at torque of the devil say hes seen 450bhp on standard cams is that a bit far fetched? what cams do you lot recommened for 450bhp on a tt38? bd14 inlet? standard exhaust?

cheers

westus1

iTrader: (6)

sounds about right but you'll need pockets in the pistons for a bd14
i'd have thought 450bhp on standard cams was pushing it a little
not sayin it cant be done but surely at that kinda power the cost of a cam or 2 would be nothing for the better power band you'd get

dom123

when fiting a bd14 inlet cam do you need both verniors?

tabetha

Surging is not caused by greys it is caused by a shit map/set up.
I am running greys even on my low setting position of 220bhp, it is clean as a whistle, even down to 850 rpm top gear, idle is under 1.5% CO.

My T4 saff runs 850cc injectors, mild headwork ,38Psi and std cams.... Claimed at 450ish BHP, but never had it on the rollers so who knows.

col cos1

iTrader: (5)

cams are fairly cheap why not upgrade?

+you dont need pocketed pistons for bd14s

RWD_cossie_wil

iTrader: (9)

Not ideal to run 14's without pockets, run very very close even on a std head/ pistons, worth getting pockets IMHO so you can time them in properly. I havn't really done anything with the car since having it so will have a play when I get a chance

Trotter

Just think if you over rev a yb with std cams you get contact,imagine over reving a yb with a BD14 with no valve pockets

Kitchen devil on here is 450 on the nose with standard cams

lol, at not having surge at 850rpm in 5th

id love to see any turbo flow more air than the engine can consume at 850rpm

col cos1

iTrader: (5)

i run twin bd14s ,without pocketed pistons with no issues,even my last head was down to the wood and no contact and my car revs to 7800rpm

westus1

iTrader: (6)

fair enough but you surely cant have any adv on the inlet cam without pockets surely
i'd run pockets to be safe

westus1

iTrader: (6)

i know it was down to the map
my point was that i didn't know cock all back then and didn't set it up correctly or with the correct stuff(software etc)

yrkesman

This is the best I have got so far from my Escort Cosworth and it is with standard cams and 1.5kPa. It might have given few extra horses at top, but the ignition was left what it was. The catalytic converter was also restricting top end power.

col cos1

iTrader: (5)

i do have advance on cam,mine ticks over real lumpy since cams dialled in

but i do run low comp

cossie604

iTrader: (2)

Well low comp would clear better than standard pistons anyhows?

Col, you got me a deposit btw chap? Gotta send the money in Thursday mate

col cos1

iTrader: (5)

yeah sorry how do i pay mate?can you pm me details
