just a little teaser haha

 

 

f@$k me thats a big turbo.

 

 

slighty larger then a GT35R in size.

 

 

hinting at a built engine?

 

What RPM do you think you will have full spool by?

 

What are you setting this car up for;

¼ mile strip car

Dyno Queen

Or an all rounder

 

All the best

full spool should be seen around 4700- 5000 , rev limiter is going to be set at 8800rpm. I'm really not to sure to be honest , i want the car to be handy enough to go around a race track and be quick enough to do a 10 second quarter mile time.

 

HIGH ROLLER - shut up u ! lol :cool:

Its an impressive build,

 

but how much power will get to the ground to scare you?

 

350hp atw with semis will get you into mid to high 10's

 

Even a 3071r would do the job and have boost throughout the rev range

You're right, a conrod through the bonnet at 8800 would scare most people.

 

There is a reason people run the gt28rs, boost from pratically idle, with 300rwhp in a 800kg car, power-on burnouts at 80kph. :hmm: Would be real close to getting you that 10sec 1/4 as well.

 

Anyways, not trying to be rude, i do love this car, just sayin'.

I hope that size turbo works out for you, because you would hate it if it turns out to be a cranky unfriendly street driven vehicle. I’ve driven some cars with a huge turbo on the street and some come off boost (revs drop too low) while changing gears and lag before they come on boost again.

 

As you would know a turbo being too large for an engine will have a very narrow power band in the top end of the rev range (it would be a real lag monster).

 

Not being a hater as I can and do appreciate any build of this quality, which yours is and I hope the engine/turbo combo works out.

 

All the best

yes , a engine is being built on the side , the engine in the car atm is a dummy so i could make the intercooler pipes and the like.

 

The turbo was chosen to suit the engine modifications. It will be a little lazy but thats what I'm after, After all it still has a baby tyre on the rear and the last thing i would have wanted was full boost my 3000rpm to smoke the tyres stright away, this way the car will leave the line and progressivly come on strong , rather then blowing the tyres stright away.

^that is complete bs, but you will find that out anyways.

 

 

Good stuff, with a built engine it all makes sense, it will be an animal. Keep the updates coming!

oh what a feeling - In all honestly who really know what the car is going to do ? , ill come to that brigde when i get to it. Being a light car with a decent amount of horsepower , it was a wiser decision to go down this part, if it doesnt work, ill reorganise the setup.

 

NISROLA - id rather keep the car on 98 for now ,i want to get use to it first. Ill proberly end up putting c16 or something of that nature in it , i want to keep away from E85.
