Thread: My new toy

Test fitted the new intake today.

Looks horn

very big fan of Harrop research and development, im sure this thing will sing audio porn with all the sting youd expect
custom IM runners or off shelf???

off the shelf mate only just released to suit the LS7.
They are "suppose" to outflow the heads at around 420cfm heads flow around the 390cfm range.

thats good flow bench stats,
have to post a vid, keep the mic next to the ITBs, the sound would be orgasmic
Nothing beats the deep throat sound that we hear from an unrestricted cylinder under full load

im thinking of getting my SC manifold extruded just to make it equal across all 8 cylinders.
early days in my project, the excel spreadsheet is full and dates and cost loaded, big year ahead, but know when you post your stuff I get butterflies....
love the process of building an engine from scratch.

My stage 1 HAS to be completed this year for I'm taking a year off AAS to make it happen....... FUUUCCCCC!!!!!!!!KKKK lol

mmm that intake droools haha
ZAC

vegetarian intake!

Good stuff dude

but i swear i will wreck that thing when I get on a litre bike, swear to allah mate.

if i pull the seats out a few other bits run an auto it will go in the 9's.
car weighs 1850kg with me in it.

But we are talking about traction here and 1/4mile put you and me side by side on a free way 130mk/h to 200km/h id like to see what happens.
But we are comparing apples with oranges here a car and bike are too different things.
It like comparing a boat and a train.

To think that thing sounded awesome when i went it in... That would sound outta this world now... Looks sex also.

Hahah true mate just stiring, but seriously..Lol

A friend of mine is building a new FG F6 into a weapon hey, amongst the list of crap hes going to get done i remember he mentioned a Nismo stage something for the car, looking at 380+ kw at the wheels, and well over a thousand NM. Should be fun, will let you know when he takes it to WSID... What sorta torque numbers is yours putting down?

Adz did your 1098 have std exhaust? Or you go full termi system? Those things sounds insane WOT with the full termignoni system!

the only true way to measure torque is on an engine dyno, on a chassis dyno its only a measurement of tractive effort and mine was like 9000nm or some shit like that.
It terms of engine dyno the stock engine puts out the following:

620HP / 462.5KW @6200rpm
590ft-lb / 800NM @4800rpm

Now mine is making on the old manifold at the wheels:
618.3RWHP / 461.3RWKW @6600rpm held to 7200rpm

So at a guess the engine HP would be around about 720HP so the torque would also be up maybe to around 930NM. But the new figures when the new manifold is sorted are going to be close to 670rwhp which will be about 780HP at the engine.

Put the torque level this way, the tuner that i use has tuned thousands of cars and he tunes them all on the dyno then on the street. There is a very steep hill he gets you to drive up and the speed limit goes from 90km/h to 70km/h going up the hill, he said most cars need to drop back to 4th or even 3rd to pull up the hill, i do the whole hill in 6th.

crazy torque 6th at 70 on a hill oh yeah (be around 1100rpm 6th at 70km/h?) :P

yeah its something like that from memory, its a decent hill too it does get pretty steep.

If he's getting a Nizpro system it's understandable that he's been quoted torque figures. Nizpro test all their kits on an engine dyno the have in their small head office. The production kits that is so it's some reference

Yep full Termighoni system... Thing was an animal with that, combined with the open clutch cover at the lights it sounded like a jack hammer...
