Just the stock head gasket and head studs to worry about then

Im interested to see how far it will go, but im going to leave it at that power for now just untill i build a fully forged one with arp hardware, then we'll be having some serious fun, but like i have said before that way way down the line

ah according to the info i have 450hp is about the limits thus why im only running 5psi on a stock bottom end still cheap motors so go hard dude :)

sounds strong on the dyno

We talking 450hp at the wheels or the flywheel?

i deal with alot of the people up finland way that play with these things yes they make 800hp on stock but not for long and its at the motor so they have shown me, and when it goes wrong :)

so anyone got a calculation for drive train power loss?

Ok after doing alot of reading im going to say it 20% drive train loss. any objections??

So with 308rwkw which is 20% of 385fkw which is 516hp at the engine and 413bhp

Does that sound correct?

No idea! But 413bhp sounds pretty f**king good to me!! :D How many torques?

20% is a fairly good rule of thumb from what I've seen about the place. I've heard pleanty of hearsay about different transmissions generating different %s of loss but nothing demonstrable.

Does it really matter? you can only use the power at the wheels anyway.

15-20% is fairly common place but keep in mind the drag doesnt really increase hugely with power, so if you are running double factory power the gearbox doesnt have twice as much friction.

Still should be close enough to 500hp at the flywheel which for 10psi is pretty good

Ok we run the car up on 98 octane fuel with 12psi which will be the limit of what I wana push it to, its now making 343kw at the wheels. :blink: also really looking forward to getting it back so I can get stuck into sanding and painting it, hopefully over the next few weeks :D

Nice work man, that's a monster output! How many ft/lb is it producing? :)

Dont quote me on this but i think it is around 1000ft/lb in 5th gear but ill have the dyno sheet up soon when i get it back

there numbers that tell how accurate the result is what you have

if they were on the money you have about 530hp motor

torque is divided by diff ratio

if you had 1000ft you would know it

dont get me wrong im not bagging the result i just question the numbers people get i do this 24/7 i can also work back to the compressor map based on the power your getting/psi to confirm if the dyno guy has done right by you

Yeah im still learning, cheers this is all good stuff to know, not sure what the diff ratio was its been a while since i welded it up, and dont quote me but im thinking its 3.46 or 3.64
