Default 300ZX engined Escort from Cyprus New Setup

A few days ago the monstrous 300ZX engined Escort Cosworth visited the dyno of C.C. Racing in Cyprus to test their new setup.

The results were stunning!!! At 3 bar boost pressure the car managed 1180 at the wheels without the use of nitrous. After they checked that everything is ok they turned on their 250 shot and tried again. The result was 1344 at the wheels and 138 kg torgue at 9500rpm with the boost pressure picking at 3 bar....

The engine and car is 100% prepared by Antonis and Stavros, and the chassis is highly modified in order to cope with the enormous horsepower and torgue of the engine...

The car uses Elecromotive Tec 3 electrics, Two huge Turbonetics turbos, two Spearco charge coolers and the tuning was made by Maik Haralampous of JMC

I should remind you that its best time was 8.8@256km with much lower power last year in Athens...

Don't worry YB fans (including me). There is another one monstrous Escort Cossie in Cyprus with a YB engine with over 1050 bhp... info soon....




Also this weekend there is a drag race event in Greece and for the first time since its build, another Escort Cosworth will compete and we ll be able to have photos and video of it... The specs of this particular Escos are T88 hybrid Turbonetics (can operate up to 4 bar boost and 118lbs flow), Haltech management, sequential gearbox etc...

The last known dyno was at 2.8ct boost pressure and it produced 780 at the wheels and 79 kg of torgue. The car is tuned to operate up to 3.5 bar of boost!!!!!!!

Also our famous white Shap faced 3dr 4wd Sierra Cossie with a new engine now (709 at the wheels at 1.9 bar boost on a Mustang dyno (it shows much lower than a dynojet) and it can operate up to 3.5 bar) destroyed its Quafie transmission in testing so we ll have to wait for the next race...

More info soon...

I may be wrong but I think that's the header tank, no worries about that one exploding.

Anyone want to stick their hand out the window to feel the breeze?
