No, i imagine thats going to be destroyed when the mould is made.
The mould will then be the correct size.
this is only the mould, i will make a female mould from this out of fibreglass.
i also took back the edges 8mm before laying up the FG and filler to eusre the final product fits.
if it makes 400hp then....

I just managed to get my PDA to get MSN on the work network!

Well impressed by all that mate! Thought anything about the tires you'll be running it on - you'll need some seriously soft rubber to keep all the power down. Might be worth some dot-specs or something.
Think you're doing really well though, and I wish I had the balls to do that - and the space!
What's next once you finish this one? A twin engined one, or a four wheel drive one?
I'm really looking forward to seeing how the dash works out.

Oooh! Contravertial! Personally I'm a Dunlop man - SP Sports in my opinion.
Keep up the good work, and providing us some interesting reading during our lunch break
plenham, thats the word I was trying to think of.
Custom plenham aswell then.
Is Ben developing the supercharger conversion then? What ECU are you going to use?

well ben is doing the work, but this kit would not fit a normal 172 without modifing it,
as i have a custom AUX setup and boddies etc
not sure on the ECU...ben worries about stuff liek that... i just write the cheques!
Who is paying for the development costs?
booooooooooooooost
depends how much your willing to push engine components. I personally would be happy with a reliable 300bhp myself
basically I could run about 480hp with the charger, its all on the pulley size etc.
as mark says I will proberly run it on 300-350 daily.
the engine is a very very high spec. all the internals are forged etc.

what car was the 'charger originally designed for?
Its an aftermarket one. You work out how much horsepower you are going to make and size it accordingly.
http://www.rotrex.com/
There not, the Rotrex chargers are designed for aftermarket applications. they have a few models within there range which offer different values but the SP-30 94 is the daddy for 2.0 with a stock power of 240 ish (my modded engine)
it is also a centrefugal charger so the faster they spin the more power they make, they also have a biult in gearbox to ensure smooth delivery with a high effeicense (like a turbo but with no lag to start), a screw charger has its limits and are not as easy to extract power from.
so the higher the revs the more power and you cant out spin a charger like a dirty Turbo with its hot air. so the power would never drop off like a turbo.
the saxo VTS boys with stock 120hp get around 240 at the fly with just a sp30- 84 fitted.
my block is fully reworked. i am also using ITB's with the charger
Nope im not that rich! not sure if it needs it either
i mean like..
steel crank
forged rods
low comp forged pistons
headwork
cams
uprated oil pump
and loads more!
It can be made road legal though.
Why not VAg 1.8 T it then use the 6 speedo box of then?
But your always stuck with them draining power from the engine. You could oversppeed it though or it heat the air up to much.
Is the block being built for N/A or turbo power then as i remember you saying you were going to run it N/A for a bit?
Are you keeping the engine in the same place then or going to try move it back a bit to help with weight.
Since your going to need a beter pump odes that mean your looking at a race car fuel tank possibly? AKA the nana has?
na (well not at the moment anyway)
i think k-tec sell a uprated pump for there turbo kit which fits in the stock tank?
i cant move the engine back without modifing the frame.
the engine will weigh no more than stock,
i have removed the;
aircon pump
lines
aircon rad
air box
pas pump moved to the rear (electric hydrolic GTi pump)
inletmanifold
plenham
cover
battery and fitted a redtop in the boot
stock rad
airbox
ecu and batter tray
im adding a
short inlet manifold
charger
2 in 1 rad
few oil coolers and lines
charger ally pipework
plenham.
it should come under the stock weight

The mitsubishi evo fuel pumps fit in there from memory so there a cheap sourse of fuel just got to check the fuel pressure they run have a work with ben regards injectors he's using see what pressure he's speced them to run as I think evos' run 3.5 bar vs 3 bar for the clio setup. its not difficult to set them lower just a 500hp 3.5 bar pump set at less pressure makes it flow less fuel.

440i + 182
I never thought i would see someone spent so much money on a 172! Crazy ammounts. For all the money and effort wouldnt it be better to put in a MATT BLACK styleee TT engine? Surely your gunna get much more power per pound with that?
Fair play though as it will be a beast and a total one off.

VAG lumps are boring though!
fair enough, this will probably be in bits more than it runs, but it'll be different!
