Rolling Road 15 - The results

Interesting points.

Just to point out, I have a slightly soft map compared to the setup in order to protect the gearbox not the engine.

The goal is for 450/450 one day.

Gearbox first then uprate engine.

351 torques/361 horses on rollers ain't bad at 1.27 bar, for now.

^^^^^ I am sure that Mark at Lateral reckons the 321 turbos are good for > H=400, T=450 & V=500hp. I am sure that this is the way they are listed in the TI mag.

However if a person does not want to push there engine to the max of a turbo and other supporting mods, I suppose thats fair enough?

My standard engine is running 420bhp, a lot of people believe that this is getting to the top end of what the standard internals can take on my model engine? yet Richard Bulmer informed me that his 2002 Spec C standard internals was set up to 500bhp years ago and it is still running today with lots of abuse and yet has not failed.

I have come to believe that it is not the numbers that make an engine fail, it is the set up.

That is my thoughts exactly, a well mapped and maintained car can take a lot of abuse and be fine.
