nice!

do u have any idea how much power i should be pushing with the decat downpipe fitted??

its a 276bhp wrx with a k&n pannel filter and a revolution center section and back box

i was told about 310ish?
seams to go allright as it is tho so i dont think its under powering as standerd

 

i would say it is still under 300. The big gain is when you decat the downpipe IMO.

Disco: No it's an MD304 from Lateral Performance.

but it should be over 300 when the decat pipe is fitted?

 

Sorry, the above comment confused me, I'm easy confused you see

 

I would guess it will be close to 300 with the decat.

Disco, sorry for the confusion. I installed the FMIC with the td04, about a month before i installed the turbo, injectors, and link.

Well done Kenny!!
Wheres your hat mate?? i better eat it!!

Rob

 

I'm not a ned and thus don't own a hat or a cap. However, my good friend Sipie is a novaboy at heart and I'm sure he'll have a hat you can eat

 

Alreet gadgey... how's it goin' an that .. by the way





For the record ...... I have never owned aforementioned Nova nor Cap

Nice result Kenny, especially for a TD04. Sorry if I missed it but what was the trap speed?

 

Kenny's Best ET for the day was 13.664 - RT was 0.258

Russell (12.76 RT - 0.087)

103mph John Prior to these results if you'd been asked to guesstimate what would you have expected for a tek2.5 TDO4?

 

103... thats about what my std supra ran..... at 13.7 tho

 

Thats cause you were wasting .3 of a second smoking the line

 

true...... but getting a good start in the boat in a task!!!

you saw/felt 1st hand how slow it is off the line

 

It was quite amusing actually I was going to say, 'er the lights have changed' Its defo a 40-100+ mph car

 

Come on then

Scooby Shoot Out

 

Standard P1 is 13.49 according to Subaru, so you are in that ballpark which is nice considering the P1's bigger turbo and fruitier cams, which balances against no cats and more midrange boost on your car. Any slight torque advantage you have is probably made up for by the P1's gearing - you both have 3 changes but the P1 can rev 1000 RPM higher in each gear.

My original target for my car was for it to out-accelerate a P1 as you know

 

fruiter cams - LOL.

John, you can stop now btw

Also, I was hearing a story of you transforming into a giddy teenager with a big as you watched your scooby thrash a 450bhp Evo

 

John,

What was your terminal speed when you ran agains't the EVO?

 

I don't think John was on a 1/4m track. I was told it was at a airfield day

 

kenny - aye, def a rolling start car If it was a manual with racelogic it could get going....

 

Kenny

Nice one

 

hypoluxa it was an untimed airfield, but we had T-uk and myself driving my car and the owner of the Evo then AndyF driving the Evo.

There was about 4 car lengths to the Scooby's advantage on both occasions, launch was similar.

It was an RC Developments 440 spec Evo I think which has just done 420ish on the same rollers, but I'd only got 358 (car was heatsoaked and had a very long run time, from other data I estimate it was 380 BHP on the day - TD05 FE at 1.7 dropping to 1.5 bar at peak power with full bottle of NF and mapped right to the edge with 5 degrees more timing than I could run on plain Optimax). However, I had a shedload of torque and very little lag. Since then it is now showing +35 WHP on accelerometer type things with the same fuel and boost with 1.6 bar at the top with the 20G (plus a 3" exhaust which made no difference over 2.5" !!) and torque is the same but a few hundred RPM later, obviously it hangs on longer.

My aim is 450/400 on Optimax with no additives for the new engine.

Well done John

How did you so convincingly beat the Evo if you have similar power and weight to him? What advantage did the scooby have to pull 4 car length? Is it the case that the 400-odd bhp of the Evo is pub talk and that its really <400?

 

No, I had less weight and more torque for vast areas of the RPM range, plus subjectively about half as much lag when stamping on the gas.

 

I thought EVO's weighed about the same as scoobs. I stand corrected

 

About 100kg more than a classic.

 

If the EVO was 420 (why is it called 440?) then 380hp seems as if its in the right ball park. Why was the EVO so laggy though?

We got an extra 7 degrees when using a bottle of NF with a bottle of Millers Did you map on the rollers?

BTW that is exactly what I'm aiming for with my engine

 

The Evo had a huge GReddy turbo on it (too big?) but it was running 1.8 bar.

No just mapped it on the road I probably had a degree or two in hand, but the Star rollers would have made it det had I used them. Interesting about NF AND MILLERS - Mycroft would have a field day Let him
