As Blackadder once said... "Clucking Bell"

[Gixeh]

Holy mackerel!

I really have got to have a look at this car in the near future...thats got to be one of the quickest things about, full stop!

[bzguy]

Very impressive !

Faster than a rocket 8)

OP's garage needs an update

"First impression... not got the straight line speed of the Ultima (well it is down nearly 150bhp) but definitely a better balanced car and nearly as usable as the Boxster it replaces."

TX.

The curve between 3800 RPM and 4800 RPM and looks like it could be entertaining!

Well done Andy , massive power , at least the number plate is now right

[2.5bluenob]

Wow massive amount of power at the taps Andy!

[andygtt]

Cheers guys.

The car drives fantastic now, believe it or not power is progressive and wheelspin does not happen in 3rd upwards... Had some in 2nd gear but it was very easy to control as it has part throttle boost control.

The power was secondary as I wanted all the safeties set up in the ecu so I now have full limp home mode if wideband oil water etc etc goes out of range.

I also have a 10 stage boost selection from 0.6 bar (476bhp) to full 1.3 bar.... I wanted a usable peak power rather than a dyno queen hence it makes 700bhp for so long pretty much till redline.

When we finally have a gearbox that can take the power I may chase 800bhp as the engine really had loads more to give, even today the temptation to say go to 750bhp was high but I decided to stay sensible lol

HUGE thanks to Jetstream for building me such an awsome engine :-)

The Aussie is a clever guy .

Awesome power Andy & well done.

[Gadgeroonie]

Dave Roe ?

Yep :-)

[Pilot Pete]

With great power come's great responsibility.

[Gadgeroonie]

Can we see a plot before Dave did his magic?

The car made 476bhp on 0.6 bar before Dave worked his magic, I didn't get the dyno graph so may ring them and ask if they have it as would be nice.
I hadn't pushed the power above low boost prior to this session as my priority was softies and logging etc.

Great job Andy, and great power, seems the single turbo can make 700 bhp at 1.3 bar boost which is superb, mine only made 700bhp at 1.6bar, So now we have the 700 club
Well done mate.
