A couple of Q`s

[Meatball]

Just being nosey Where in the rev range does your chimaera make its peak power? and what cams do you have fitted?

[stackmonkey]

No idea what the cams are in my Taraka, but
Peak power at 5500rpm, peak torque at 4500rpm

[Cider Andy]

Factory standard 1999 450. Max. BHP at 5326 RPM, max. torque at 4094 RPM.

Anymore

5Ltr, now with a Kent Cam 224 + ignition mapping.
Max power/BHP at 5775 rpm
Max torque at 4280 rpm

Hi Ben

Running the same cam as you I think it's about 5,600 but I'll check the dyno graph later.

Hi Corin hows it going, could you stick your graph up as a comparison


The reason for the question is after having a new cam fitted (stealth), top end re build and some other modding bits last year the car making good power for a 450 (298bhp)@6000rpm which is also bang on the rev limiter..????

What im wondering is this a characteristic of the stealth cam? and who could i use to get a re chip to raise the rev limiter a little as there should be a bit more in there.

(i know i should leave the bloody thing alone )

If you want to make the power more accessible then ..... get the ignition mapped. Mark Adams did mine and the increase in low down power is huge.

Before the change I was getting about 105 torque at 2000 rpm, now its just short of 300.

Worth thinking about.....
