Batmax Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) People in the states run 8/900hp through the stock block. Crazy people lol 750 is the limit imo ! Edited August 21, 2012 by Batmax (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Maybe it will be a better idea to keep it till further down the line when I build the block then. Lux, I see you are running 767bhp, do you have a built engine? I've read that 700bhp is the number where it is very wise to have a built engine..! My engine will be completely built over winter. It didn't have any issue so far on the stock block, but I don't do a lot of km per year. Plus Ryan mapped it and said this would be the max he would go on the stock block. I just want to go for a bullet proof engine, so I can push a couple more bhp. 800 rhhp is my goal ... I want to see if this can be achieved on my little 66mm tubie.

Luxluc Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I guess its all how you tune it, right..! Hodge's car is a good example of that.... :-) Pay attention : Hodge's engine isn't completely stock (stock rods and pistons, but other engine components have been upgraded).

Rob_Mitchell Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I got a built engine in mine. You will be fine on a stock engine people run 600-700 (your goal) all day long with no problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will be fine on a stock engine people run 600-700 (your goal) all day long with no problems That's great to know because I believe that is a great number for a street/track car and I don't have any interest in drag racing..! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazil Posted November 13, 2012 Author Share Posted November 13, 2012 Ok guys, its been a long time since I have updated this but here we go. Parts list have changed quite a bit from the beggining but; I decided to sell the Fcon Vpro and instead I am going to try the new Infinity -10 mainly. Reason being is because my local tuner is most familiar with AEM products and this new Infinity is suppose to be quite good..! This week I am expected to receive all the parts except the EMS and the goodies that come with it please see the first page for parts list. What I have just now is the complete fuel system, Plenum + TB, Cam Pulleys, AEM Wideband, Spark Plugs. Here is the only photos that I have; but as soon as the parts arrive and the build really kicks off I will be updating it with lots of photos. Ps. how can I enlarge attached photos?

Brazil Posted November 21, 2012 Author Share Posted November 21, 2012 Thanks to Pudsey, Parry and Scoobyslayer the parts arrived in good condition; though as soon as the chrome'rs get their hands on it I hope to see it in even better condition..! :-) HKS TO4Z Turbo Kit. Greddy 4 row FMIC. Jun type Plenum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazil Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 After 3 weeks in the body shop the car is finally back to my mechanic with a fresh new engine bay look. I also changed my front tinted windows to a lighter grade film as I wasn't able to see bugger all at night and had to put the window down every time I needed to turn. I have chrome pulley wheels, billet cam belt tensioner, and new oem idler pulley still to go on... '' once I find them '' long story...!

Brazil Posted February 6, 2013 Author Share Posted February 6, 2013 Needs a set of my pulleys! Would you sell me just an alternator pulley please? I already have the other 2 we have not fitted them because they need a polish and we are waiting to send a bunch of other parts to polish at the same time.
