It was on the rolling road last week for mapping and at.8 of a bar of boost it made over 390bhp and 220 lbft at fly wheel with a target boost 1.7 to 2 bar.

Am I the only one disappointed to find that it's only the turbo from an F1 engine?

I was kind of hoping it had a Honda V6 Turbo / BMW 4-pot turbo or similar with anything up to 1200bhp.

I would have liked to have used a complete F1 engine, but would have to have shaked the piggy bank a little bit harder, the reason for using the F1 turbo is because it's extremely light and I have a large selection of different size exhaust and compressor housings to try. Here are a couple of photos from Geoff Page's workshop where he works on a lot of the F1 1500 Heart, V6 Cosworths, Jaguar XK220 and some of the Group B Rally engines.

do the Dax now have inboard shocks form the factory or is that what you have done???

The inboard shocks are a optional extra on the M.C rush but this is the first one.

Geek Alert - Is that a modified intercooler of a 4wd Sapphire Cosworth?

Amazing to see the old Ford bits are still being used on modern day machinery!!

On second thoughts .. maybe not. Looks a bit bigger!

[quote=carl_w]Hey busa turbo, I think I've competed in some of the same sprints as you (I wouldn't say "against you" as I'm in Class A2). Presumably the Dax open days are in Harlow? Any way of finding out when they're coming up in the future?[/quote
