quick vid taken last sat at the dyno day i organised, thought some of you might be interested as it seemed cause a bit of a stir on a couple of other threads

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apEfc_f8ozQ

it runs a highly modded clio 172 engine with a 6 speed audi gearbox etc

JonnyBravo

Awesome, surging as it comes on boost but thats making some big numbers.

I showed this to my mate the other day and we both agreed once thats laying the power down in the first 1/8th I'd imagine its will start giving Specky a hard time.

bluntys1rsturbo

the aim is to get it into the 9s from what i could gather from speaking to chris on the day, he will get the 1/8ths down soon thats for sure as he is going to limit the boost in the 1st couple of gears iirc.

more power to come soon as well figure of 750 was mentioned bloody insane i tell ya haha

JonnyBravo

I'd be worrying about putting the power down than trying to make more, he is just down on speed compared to Specky but then he does have over 50hp less.

Seriously impressive car, atleast he isn't trying to get that out of a 5 turbo engine

bluntys1rsturbo

that would be glenn or hi5 tuning who is pushing the c1j further than anyone else has done, ran an 11.01 on last outing, hes converted it to efi he will certainly dip into the 10s this year

lol i know mate am sure he will get it sorted will be great to see an r5 into the 9s

JonnyBravo

So the one running 10.01 isn't this car ?

bluntys1rsturbo

the one running 11.01 is glenns or hi5, thats a white un. the one in this vid runs 10.2 1/4s

JonnyBravo

Sorry mate, I see what you mean now.

Amazing figures for both engines.

bluntys1rsturbo

very good figures mate, even more so for the old 1.4 8v pushrod c1j, we will find out the power figure of glenns in october at my next dyno day

do you still own the nova in your sig? my 1st car was a 1.3 sr on twin 40s still miss that car

JonnyBravo

I don't own it anymore, sold it in 2006 although it did come back to me a few months back for a turbo engine conversion, no where near as nice as it was sadly.
Strangely my first car was also a Nova on 40's, sounded awesome with its dtm exhaust ! I did love that car though.

Very impressive that

What exactly causes SURGE folks??

Can it be mapped out so to speak??

danneth

awesome

AustenW

Impressive result

bluntys1rsturbo

thanks to the mod for moving this i did realise after id posted it up that i should of put it in here

AustenW

Got any pics of the engine bay?

bluntys1rsturbo

Am sure i have some if not i can get some for you no probs

v man

do you know my good mate dean holingworth

he has a white 5 built by glyn

runs efi/nos etc
still 1.4 and pushing around 350/380 hourses

There's probably more to it than this but its when the engine can't consume the amount of air the turbo can supply, my old engine suffered with it, msd mapped it out though.

JonnyBravo

Glynn as in Glynn ODell ? wouldn't of thought he would go near one ! lol

Arr, that makes sense Karl.........

Joshy

correct mate, the turbo starts rapidly accelerating and decelerating reversing the load on the bearing many times a second. thats why the new GT series turbos are arguably more prone to damage with their roller bearing core's than the solid bearings of the old T series turbo's

Rab

Is that FWD??????

Can you get a pic of the engine bay? Would love to see how cramped it now is.

bluntys1rsturbo

name doesnt ring a bell mate is he a member over on rtoc? did you mean glen or glyn ?

bluntys1rsturbo

indeed it is

bluntys1rsturbo

this is the only one i can find atm taken in 2010

orion turbo

that looks serious

how well does it put the power down tho?

bluntys1rsturbo

well a 10.2 1/4 mile says it doesnt put it down too bad lol, he was telling me it spins wheels up in 4th at 100mph in the dry which can be expected with that much power from fwd

Webby``

WOW thats mental

CaftDunt

Awesome Car!

what Turbo is it running

bluntys1rsturbo

very brief spec here


DOHC 2.0L 16v Turbo
Clio 172 block & cylinder head
Garrett GT40/30r
2" turbosmart wastegate, seperate discharge
Custom cams, hydro lifters
Forged pistons
Steel rods, ARP 2000
Twin bosch 044 fuel pumps & seperate lift pump
Water injection
Adaptronic race engine management

2011:
The core engine is retained but running through an audi 6 speed 02M instead of the old unreliable 5 speed. It uses RS4 shafts with Renault outers, solid mounts and a 670lb rated drag clutch from SPEC in the USA. Hydraulic pedal instead of cable. There's a pair of new manifolds and some other changes too.
