11 SEC stuff (Info, dyno, performance)

Post by Milford Autoelectrical » Fri Feb 14, 2003 7:14 pm

Hey all, just replying to some of the questions asked.

The inlet air temp makes a hell of a difference. We proved it on the dyno. We did a run with reasonably high inlet air temps, then let the car cool for half an hour then re-run it with no other changes, and a 20-30 Hp gain!!

Someone asked what i had done, basicly everything, how much did it cost, dont even go there (my bank loan managers smiling tho!), was it worth it, HELL YEA!

If you want to know what actually went into it, well here we go:

1840cc block, Familia GT-R pistons, rings, rods, crank, injectors, head, cams, valves, all internals ballanced shotpeened etc, 1.8L plenum, custom tuned length manifold, custom T3/T4 turbo, external wastegate, carbon/kevar clutch, 2.5in exhaust, VR4 intercooler with 2 cooling fans and 4 water sprayers, custom intercooler piping, blitz blow off valve, Link plus engine management, custom surge tank, Bosch motorsport fuelpump, twin fuel lines, modified fuel rail, six extra gauges (turbo oil pressure, oil temp, exhaust temp, boost, fuel pressure, inlet air temp), HUD speedo, custom door panels, ABS from Subaru Legacy, Mazdaspeed shortshift and speedo, Momo carbon/ kevlar seats, 5 point 3inch harnesses, rollcage, momo steering wheel, bodykit, 15inch mags, full HKS suspension (Changing to Ohlins on Sat), Mazda RX-7 series 5 LSD, custom PPF diff mount, full rewire, Raybrig HID headlights, rear bulb failure indication, Skyline 4 pot calipers DBA drilled vented discs (coming soon), a!
nd bare metal respray in Tint White (coming soon), and for the people who think they want my car more than me- GPS tracking service.

Performance Car sound good to me!
