    Engine size = BHP

    To put it simply..........Air. BHP is the work done (remember GCSE Physics) by and engine, torque being its actual power. The more fuel you can burn the more work you can do as youll be processing more energy stored in fuel. Controlling fuel is easy, not a problem, the problem is...

    larger cooling fan

    Mark, just get a oil filter sandwhich plate with thermo built in, 2 hoses to connect to a 13 row oil cooler that you mount anywhere you can down below and itll open when your oil reaches over 86 deg or whatever temp you choose. Larger fan wont do much.

    Williams Tyre choices

    195s cheaper and there is no real diff, but some people will try tell you finiky diffs. Eagles are ok, expesnive as hell but not 100% better than tyres that cost less, dont waste your time or your money on them.....there are far cheaper and better options out there.

    oil back to sump

    anywhere really, doesnt matter. It has a windage tray in it so below that to clear the crank and be safe. I have a pic somewhere of the turbo return line i think, but itll take a while o find it.

    Cup - Blue or Silver

    Nope, i dont like it either, it looks cheap and tacky. We had a V8 sprayed blue at owners request, and well, it looks crap.....like a plastic toy. It may be the colour of the moment, it may be unique, it may stand out....but in the 70s, the colour of the period was poo brown, everything was...

    oil back to sump

    The turbo block has a hole tapped in for a return line, you might be able to see the casting mark and do the same. if not, just tap into the sump.

    Low Power 172’s

    There is, volumetric efficiency.....max is 100% SO a 200cc cylinder can only hold 200cc at 100% VE. BUT, itll make twice the power at 10,000rpm than at 5000rpm as long as you can hold the 100% VE which is the hard part and the reason wild cam profiles loose out at low rpm, because they are...

    Low Power 172’s

    Ahhhhhh, now toms thinking! Your just about on the basis of making power, the single thing you concentrate on. Air.........simple. Fuel holds the energy, simple.......but needs air and heat to burn. So supplying fuel is deal simple, as is igniting it. But air.........supplying air, now...

    lol....KDF, the thermodynamics expert in vehicular retardation specifics lol.... Same brakes, same tyres same car, add a different weight shift through a higer CoG and inertial forces will mean you take longer to stop. Tyres will be teh finite limiting factor, but you can improve even with...
