The Raven Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I saw this in the metal the other day. The pictures don't do the engine bay justice. It's a work of art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaan W Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 Car is back at SRD for a few tweaks before the dyno run on the 20th. We have decided to cap the power to a safe 800rwhp as that's all the box will take. There are plans to change the transmission during winter to a whole new level but I'll keep that under wraps for the time being Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 800 rwhp. You will only need 1.5 bar then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 It has taken a long time to realise that the engine is stronger than the transmission? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will only need 1.5 bar then About that It has taken a long time to realise that the engine is stronger than the transmission? I've always known the transmission was the weak link and was gunno push it as far as it would go but I don't wanna be without a car during summer. Good idea. 801 rwhp would just be ridiculous It would mate lol. Going 6 speed next then Not quite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Nicholas Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 800? I thought you uprated the box Kaan? shame you cant make at least 1000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 800? I thought you uprated the box Kaan? shame you cant make at least 1000. It's still a titan trans Nicholas rated to 800 so best to be safe until the new trans goes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would mate lol. Not quite I think a nice quaife sequential box would be nice in it[emoji4], How early is it making positive boost mate with the stroker kit, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 I think a nice quaife sequential box would be nice in it[emoji4], How early is it making positive boost mate with the stroker kit, About 4000rpm mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Budz86 Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 800 will be more than enough for the moment mate......at least for the first few weeks anyway! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellonman Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 It's still a titan trans Nicholas rated to 800 so best to be safe until the new trans goes in. What transmission ATF are you using ? Have a look at this stuff another thread brought it to my mind as I have been using it and for a while now and my stock transmission is still in one peace after 3 years of 510ftlb and hard weekend toy driving. http://www.amsoil.com/shop/by-product/transmission-fluid/automatic/super-shift-racing-transmission-fluid-sae-10w/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 About 4000rpm mate Are you sure mate. It should spool much earlier than that .... or am I wrong because of the autobox? My 6766 on a 3.0 makes positive boost just before 3000 rpm in 4th gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 6766 on a 3.0 makes positive boost just before 3000 rpm in 4th gear. The high stall makes it very hard to know for sure plus there is less load as its slipping most of the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 As Lee said the high stall is loose until about 3.5k rpm so there's no load to build boost. I wanna keep it though as I'm doing a few rwyb days thus year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
