What spacers are you running?
Wider track means you dont run in the natural tramline on the road.
I have role centre and bumpsteer kit on mine and it still pulls on the roads because of the track width. Nature of the beast it's a track car
So from what I have learnt after reading both @Cub. @Ricardos build threads....
Making sure the timing is perfect is paramount!
250bhp 220lbs is a safe working track power region.
The chargers oil reservoir needs to be level or below the charger so it doesnt over pressurise the system.
Meg key...
Ease of figment and reliability is what I'm looking for but with increased power.
When you guys said it felt restricted at low revs do you mean it doesnt draw as much air as it would NA? Like its struggling for air low down?
Also I'm guessing the peak power is at red line?
So with NA the most air your vehicle can possible pull in is 2 litres. That's your lot which in my case gives me 200bhp at the flywheel. Running 8 psi on a charger you are adding another litre of air into your engine under boost. Technically producing a 3.0ltr engines power. We all know more air...
Track is what I use it for.
I'm at a stage now where to make more power I would need cams, high compression piston as a minimum. Then your into modifying the head, fancy valves , vernier pulleys. At the best parts of 4k for an engine that produces 240bhp and needs rebuilding every year.
Or...
What did you have planned?
My thoughts are it's supposed to be a bolt on mod at 240bhp without changing any internals.
NA 240bhp would be a fully forged race engine that would need stripping and rebuilding once per year.
I'm currently at 200bhp and 170lbs with 48mm Jenvey bodies
Meg injectors...
Does any one know of anyone running one?
I'm fancying charging mine and selling the Jenvey throttle bodies.
Cant find any build threads on here with a kit though
The sun naturally fades the pigment in the paint, newer stuff has UV protection in the lacquer. All you can do it polishes the lacquer to bring the shine back the wax it. You wont physically change the colour though.
