Looks awesome what's the spec??????

 

Looks impressive are those T25/8's?

 

Looks fucking awesome, as above, lets have spec details please

 

I think 28's, 2.9 24v low comp pistons, custom made TB wolf managment.

 

Oh, its not your car then?

 

looks like the top boss thing

 

no I wish

I am having same spec next year though

 

you are having the same spec but you dont know what it is?

lol

 

I am having t 25 though Chip

 

so I took no notice of the turbo spec

 

this is the car

 

Oh, same spec engine internals you mean, fair enough.

I think people will be quite surprised with how good some of these granny cossie motors end up now that turboing them is getting more popular!

 

They are good for 400bhp, but above that the blocks become a bit dodgy

some ppl are doing girdles now

 

On vauxhall v6 turbo conversion (just mentioning them cause i know a bit more about them) its cooling the cylinders at the back thats an issue.

What failure do you get on these ford blocks over 400bhp then mate?

 

When cosworth first made the 24v it had a standard 2.9 12v block, but with in year they had modded the block because were the main bearing caps met the block it would crack. The new block have webbing in them that helps a lote. To move up into the 600 to 800 bhp you need to rev the engine more and even causes to new blocks to crack.

6500 to 7000 max

 

Girdle would certainly help in those circumstance if well done then.

failing that even a mains strap might be better than nothing

 

I was thinking a mains strap would be a simpler way and cheaper I have a spare 2.9 block may do some experimenting

 

Works wonders on some engines, and has little effects on others, so worht giving it a try mate!

 

Now that looks sweet

 

that looks really nice - from the top. don't wanna see what it must be like underneath all that. must be pipes and hoses all over the shop.

i thought from the title that you had just done mapping now, but you mean that the install is done and now just needs mapping to finish off?

post up the results if it gets on a chassis dyon please

 

didnt the top boss car get written off

also heard some horror stories about em but that does look sweet

 

how should we know, there's never been one over 400bhp

fitz's car was NOT 850bhp (and yes he told me PERSONALLY it was, not chineese whispers)

 

yes ForeigneRS, It running but its running a base map of a straight 6 turbo Aus XR6.

it was run up on 7psi for the hell of it and judging by the flames the map does not suit lol

 

the orginal engine was run in dyo at 320 bhp at 7 psi, then it was cam'ed and 14psi of boost was added, so no it may have not made 400bhp as it was never dynoed ofterwards but I think it did, but I think it lunched it self at that spec though.

 

There are lots of 24v in the world Jim and not just in your tiny closed world you live in. 400bhp have been achived many times on a 24v

 

I have seen one make well over 600 bhp on an engine dyno

 

As I said the only proved bhp of the orginal engine was 320 bhp and I am sure the engine at the end was in 450 bhp mark before it met its maker.


SEC's was that the Tubo technics engine mate

 

Making the power on a dyno for a couple of minutes isnt hard, not falling apart within the first few K miles is.

Still a good achievement to make 600bhp+ though

 

JohnnyB, No it wasnt. This was for a hill climb kit car.

 

johnny, it was ust joking reference to blue steel thats all
