We have increase the water cooling as well as the air flow into the engine bay. We will have plenty of parameters being logged to ensure the engine is running correctly. Josh

Thanks Chip, didn't know my Motorsport Engineering Degree was "mickey mouse". Cooksport is made up of myself (Josh), Mike Ritchie (ex Ktec) and one other share holder. Between the team we have a massive amount of experience when building standard, high power and race engines. Chip, you are...

This is our road car. Ultimately the engine will end up dead, its the whole point in pushing it to see what breaks first. My bet is the crank or block (probably block), but lets see if we can hit 700bhp before that happens ;)

Mikes been mapping for years. :)

Just dont loose sleep over it. We want to push the standard block to see what its capable of, as with the gearbox, crank etc. So thats what we are doing.

This has been accounted for. Dont worry Chip, we know what we are doing. Thank you for your concern though :)

Well if you subscribe to the thread, you will be able to see how long we can make it last :)

It is indeed linked :)

Hopefully it will be epic once it's done :) Not one that we have done mate, but maybe lol!

Right hand drive mate.

Anything is possible. Can't tell yet, but this will not be until the distant future if it does happen anyway. :)

Haha yeah! If it's too bad we will make it 4wd ;)

Paul at Rs has 511. It's fast.

It's pretty tight in the engine bay with everything in there! :)

We will be mate.

Coming to this Renaultsport track day at brands?

Yes...yes you are..lol! The vee on the road yet?

Not at the minute... Want some for the vee? ;)

That's if you dont mind anyway... :) Josh

Turbo inlet is 100mm (4 inches).

Nice, will try and make it to that one then. Its not too far either :)

Watched it, Epic start. May have to come and watch at the next round. Where is it?

Re: Cooksport Megane, Big power Build... Just a tease ;) Thats where its going.....

600bhp is our safe estimate. Hopefully more. Yes, it will hopefully be at Rockingham for our next Clio Cup meeting and the coming Renaultsport track day at Brands Hatch. Josh

Re: Cooksport Megane, Big power Build... Well, there was a graph that read similar to that but it wasnt. It was nearer 380-390bhp. But the power delivery was epic. :)

Re: Cooksport Megane, Big power Build... This is being used on the road, circuit and strip.... gearbox on wing nuts..:clown:. Should be finished in a few weeks.

Re: Cooksport Megane, Big power Build... On a non-return basis? lol! This should hopefully be the most powerful Megane in the world. Turbo is good for about 750 wheel horse power. :)

Re: Cooksport Megane, Big power Build... We can arrange something... ;)

Re: Cooksport Megane, Big power Build... It was a dream, very quick car. Will be interesting with more power though :evil:

Re: Cooksport Megane, Big power Build... It was at their rolling road day in 2011, so yes you did :)
