Unfortunately i cant keep it like it as apparently doin a top speed run with it will alter the air turbulance under the car making it unstable....dont want to harm poor old Mike now do we Aiming for 650bhp plus on race fuel and around 600bhp pump fuel.
Every other specification is secret and will remain that....as like all other big bhp boys we dont want everyone doin it,thats if i acheive it and it dont blow on the dyno

I think phil will build a quick car, but i dont think phil knows how to, this is a M.A.D. job i think, phils just putting the bits together.
I cant see it being a record breaker, but i can imagine around 600bhp is on the cards and it being mentally fast like any 600bhp car is.
Mechanics build cars, tuners spec engines.
Did anyone ever see the other engines, the alleged 450bhp/500bhp ones?
I take it this one is for real as we talking brunters a lot.

Matt....people gang up on me cause they wanna be me......its great ..Jealousy has always been rife to someone who carrys on regardless of the shit but still acheives the impossible dreams...they have to pay tuners so anyone who can do it themselves gets hated cause they cant do it 
Chimp/matt etc why not just admit you cant do it and be done with it?...Its not a bad thing you know
Reading books dont make you an expert......except in trying to intimidate someone who actually does what they read

Uh....I've done it
Built championship winning motorcycle engines as well as normal street car engines and ones for rally. In fact, I just dropped the block and pistons off at the machine shop after work yesterday for my 34mm restrictor engine for the 2005 season. I do the mapping myself too....on the dyno.
So as the resident DIY 'expert' who's blown up more than a few $$$ worth of Cossie lumps, you are going to advise me on how to build engines....thanks, but I'll pass.

Its not been driven yet, being worked on over the last few days. It is silenced though.... The new sysytem has been done to make the car quieter, not make it more powerful.

What engines have blown then?
T4 fooked up...got it under warranty...and you all know how hard a claim on a turbo is no?
Copy coopers ring gasket blew...
Took it off and found the RS500 block cracked around middle 6 bolt holes due to using std head bolts on 2.3 bar cause i was told to

...i got proof Steve...unlike you "Unlike you"
So phone Alex@AH Fabrications and ask about the intercooler he made (Or just look at the pics ive posted)
Phone Ian@Racetek and ask about the other bits ive got from him.
Phone Joe@Forced Performance and ask about the 1000bhp+ turbo ive bought (Or look at the pic)
Phone Lee@Greenline and ask about the JUN oilpumps (yes, 2) i bought and crank collars.
Phone Robbie@RIPS in NZ and ask about the big capacity steel bottomend, custom crank girdle, custom inlet and exhaust manfiolds, custom sump and full oil system, managment, wastegate, etc etc, ive bought (or look at my pics for half of it
)Phone ATI and ask about the drag crank damper ive bought.
And so on and so forth....

Computational Fluid Dynamics
Its the lines of flow around the car in the diagram above. Its how F1 (and other) teams augment their wind tunnel testing.
Basically it shows flow around an object for a given set of conditions and Reynolds numbers.

Mike after speaking with the machine shop about the cutouts it will reduce the compression by .1 and i know what it will be before the cut outs go in I am not discussing spec any further as there are too many book experts here for me who want to try dazzle me with there knowledge instead of getting up and practising what they preach
