I predict over 600lb/ft at 3500 rpm. The gearbox won't like that. That is something I need to upgrade the next time i hit the gas

Derek was sent to take motor engineering to the outer most limits of the stratosphere,,,,

If he ain't broke it he can go quicker,,,,

It's WOT that I haven't worked out yet.....must be me being thick.
Trouble is, every time I see it I see it as my client's shorthand for Walton-on-Thames, which blocks the thinking somewhat.

Not a lot done. Spent most of the weekend at the pod.

You're not by any chance converting it to be a plug-in hybrid, are you? Doing your bit for the environment?

342BHP is my guess

[SILICONEKID345HP]

355 is my guess ,its got a proper cam .

[DangerousDerek]

New set of leads.
Ran the engine at 2500-4000 for a while, temp was showing over 100 degrees and discovered only one fan running due to a dodgy connector. Will fit the new injectors next, alter the required fuel load then only run the engine again to get it on and off the trailer.

What size injectors have you fitted ?

Fitting them in the morning. I wanted to finish bedding the cam on the old injectors as the tune was ok. The new ones are 412cc

So that's just under 40lb .Do the injectors need to be large enough with or without the Nitrus ?

40lb injectors seem large for a 350hp engine .I thought larger the injector shorter the pulse width .

The nitrous systems have their independent supply of fuel but it could be an option to run a dry set up and have the megasquirt add the required fuel for at least 100 bhp on 1 stage.

Yes the 'required fuel' will have to be altered for these injectors. I will make a change with Dales advice just so the car will run safe enough to get on the trailer. Then Dale will work his magic next Friday.

To be honest after all this stress and hard work i just want it to not go pop, run healthy and any bhps above 320 will just be a bonus.
