Had my engine mapped by Harvey this week on his dyno, cant wait to get it in now!!
384bhp
394flbt

Spec:

200 block
6 long studs
Wrc headgasget
Standard head
Bd10 inlet
55lb simens
T34.48
Pectel running air injectors
Big wing sump

 

Nice one mate, sounds a future proof spec too

 

cracking power for the t34.48

 

on a .48!

 

Yeah it is should be good in the car

 

Yes mate .48

 

something tells me that turbo will need a rebuild within a year

didnt think you could get that much power from 0.48 housing - i went thru t34 turbo's every 12-18 months and that was on a 0.63 housing.

 

Well you learn something new everyday!!!my brothers got same spec,his has been fine last 3 years and he don't hang about only peaking 2 bar,but as your aware Harvey is one of the best mappers about do can't see there being a problem!

 

ummm

anyone else would say no way to that power claim on a .48

i always thought a t34.63 was flat out at 400

and he says standard head to

surely it wont flow that power

 

Yeah I'm lieing or I'm waiting for it Harvey's dyno must be wrong

Got it in black and white mate ask jimbo he helped map it

 

Our 3dr is running a t34.48 387 bhp engine built by harvey & it's still going strong after 8 years

 

I could be wrong.... but I think I can see the general direction this thread is heading in already.


Cheers,
Grant

 

They can flow well enough for 400 standard! That will be awesome on the road

 

Quite possible on the dyno, take off approx 10% for fitting it to the car ( intercooler restrictions/ exhaust / ancillary drives etc) and it is about there..

Can't beat a T34 engine on the road, so nice to drive!

 

my engine was a harvey gibbs 400 spec and i ended up treating the turbo as an annual service item mine was running 32psi peak and 28psi held to the limiter. Was a very quick car but the turbo's certainly didnt last.

 

sorry mate
never ment it to come across as your chatting shite mate

was more asking the question of hasnt the t34 power limit been discussed before thing

not knocking it at all mate

sorry if you thought that

 

harveys dyno is TUV approved, unlike others

*goes and seeks shelter*

 

Awsome for spec and turbo ! High rep these guys have and I'd intrust there word

 

im not disputing the power figure - a dyno figure will always be higher than an engine fitted to the car as stated earlier in the thread.

I dont think the turbo will last long at all - that is all im saying as im speaking from experience.

 

That will be a nice engine for a road car - should last a good few years

 

yes the engine will last but the turbo wont

edit to add - it is a good spec for a road car

 

nice figures.

 

The 0.48 housings don't seem to let go, I had one on my Sapphire that made 385bhp and 403lb ft (did 172mph) and was thrashed to fuck EVERYWHERE for a good couple of years. As soon as I went to a 0.63 a/r, that was when I had to have a new turbo every 3-4 months .

I suspect that if it is running that kind of power, that the compression ratio starts with an eight .

That will be an absolutely amazing road engine and you will have loads of fun - if it is 2wd - BE CAREFUL !

 

top result should be well punchy down low!

 

Hi mike

Yeah it's 2wd got one of Harvey's rear beams and some 3dr front Hubs,but gonna be careful

 

Perfect spec !

Tell me you have APs ?

 

mainly on 1 roundabout i seem to recall ??

 

dont you mean over 1 roundabout?

 

Is that the one near Harvey's to back lines that stayed there for 18 months

 

i am swiss, im allowed to misspell and all that

and yes, its wot i meant

 

note to self : make sign on dash "NO ABS" whenever mike is near

 

Cunts !

 

Focus Rs brembos for now lol

 

Not ever going to die is it?

I loved my 2wd t34 car, perfect balance of drivability & power...

 

mine made 437 on t34.48

on the rolling road at the pod, was lighting the wheels up on the dyno but he assured me it was 437, i got highest powered car of the day

 

437

 

That's bang on the money for a .48 boys, if you really take the piss with back pressure and a properly specced engine it will show high 390s, and with a .63 415-415 bhp! As said, with the .63 and holding big boost at high revs to show over 400s they are forever shitting themselves!

Dan you will love it mate get it in there and come take me for that krushem

See ya tomorrow!

 

Just gotta get rick motivated now to get it in, think it was 2x krushems we decided in the end ,see you tomorrow

 

I'm not gonna refuse that mate lol! Know where I am if you need a hand only round corner

 

Ok mate thanks
