When I was there and Charlies reaction made me laugh when he walked back into that room from the Dyno booth and said quietly "makes some HP that one dont it?"

I drove the car onto the trailer and am at the bnb ready for action on the rollers with Dale at Bailey performance in the morning. Anxious excited worried hopeful etc.

[phazed]

The very best of luck Derek.

Just keep an eye on it when it is on the rollers, keep an extinguisher ready,you never know!

Got my car on the trailer behind my motorhome at Castle Combe.

Partaking in a wet Porsche day tomorrow.

with the tiv of course!

Good luck mate.
Don't forget 357 horses is your target.

[67Fox]

Just got to see the video.
That ones got some beans, OMG !!

Well done on the build, and it should rip up the strip when you run it next time.

[Sardonicus]

Already getting incoming from Derek

[carsy]

Has he broke 350.

[DangerousDerek]

Running sweet and sounding awesome but the numbers are a little low. 308 with 340.

[DangerousDerek]

It seems to plateau at 5900 to 6300 rpm

[phazed]

You had more bhp with your 4.6.

What was the torque figure on your 4.6?

Something doesn't seem right. Either something basic right timing all the rolling road is reading a bit low.

[macdeb]

Seems where I thought it would be, and we know Dales rollers are on the conservative side compared to others
Torques good.

[phazed]

I'm fairly sure Derek had 320 brake on Dales rollers with the 4.6

[DangerousDerek]

Best I've had before on Dales is 312. I think I have a fair bit more torque.

[carsy]

Any advances on 308 Derek or was that the final figure.

I want it to be more, for your sake and the effort you have put in.....


But 322, and 355 torques.

Mac and I were the lowest, and even we were too high at 322..
I was gutted when my similar spec Rob 5 litre with a stealth cam made just 300/330, so I feel for you, Derek.
FWIW yours would quite likely be a really nice track day car.
But I am sure you will get it to where you want it.

[macdeb]

I think 300 and above on a n/a 500 is GOOD.
