Holy sh*t dude, that thing is really really nice. Must be costing you a pretty penny!

Any more pics?

very cool, how much power are you expecting with headers, injectors and intake/exhaust mods?

Will that swaybar mount on the subframe be reinforced? also no camber plates on the front? or have i missed something?

200+ rwhp - unsure yet how much really- will soon know.

Look in the pic where the cage goes to the strut - you can see the blue camber plate - the strut bearing is also an e30 m3 one with approx. -0.5 extra camber.

swaybar mount will be fine - its very reinforced where it attaches to the unibody

Still pretty good value for a 200rwhp track/club car.

Please don't turbo/supercharge it. NA is so much better.

dumb - only got 185 hp at the wheels. Bob reckons there is more in it - just not on the gas I was running on (likely 95). Headers apparently did nothing when i first thought about it - as we did get 185 hp before the mods. Except torque is decent now - 250 Nm

So would be fair to assume drivetrain loss is somewhere in the region of 20% and that I have around 220 flywheel hp - thats a 50 hp increase from stock.

At least injectors are only 70% duty cycle now hah. Could always use avgas and up the timing even more.

Worse thing is it's pissing with rain and my car leaks like a bitch and i'll have formula Rs on. I really don't want to pick it up!

edit: wrong torque! that was 5th gear hah

Post up the before & after dyno plots, would be interesting to look at!!

stuggling to find old ones - i'll email Bob - he'll have them in his puter hopefully. Dynapack dynos are pretty badass!

SAE hp btw.

I don't care how much power I have - I have flames out the exhaust and thats the coolest thing EVER.

Speaking of power - looks like the cam is too mild to get real power.
