That intercooler is bigger than my engine.

Losing 24kgs of unsprung weight is pretty good going.

These boys are taking no prisoners.

I have mixed feelings about this thread. Makes me miss my MK II so much.

[QUOTE=Zzz...Zzz;3976570]Okay , as promised I would post some engine pictures by the end of the week... here they are...

Inlet manifold colour and coil pack placement is not decided upon yet as you can see...

Front drive accesories,belt drive fuel pump and wastegates is not present on theese photos - i know , I haven't forgot about them..!

Have to say we are really pleased with the aura of theese 227kg's of PURE THRUST.....









4 plate carbon/carbon clutch on T6 billet flyweel



Large throttle body, and 1680ccm injectors hooked on to the rails..



one more with more light




What do you think??

Cheers

If you read nothing else but this, its worth it, gives you an insite to the car




[QUOTE=Zzz...Zzz;3977025]That's not my intention - to tease you !

Mhmmm, I really don't want to neither think or talk about the cost of this... examples are just the clutch for instance, wich was £3000(sponsored price) you know, and buildig the exhaust manifolds was about £2400 just in materials... :S

No, not 2k hp.
The engine can produce well over 2000hp,(it wll give about 2300hp at 2.4bar boost) but turbos is its only limitation , they can produce 1750hp at the maximum in teory , so we'll se how well they hang in there.

It even passes 1000hp before 1 bar(14.7psi) of boost.

If we get 1500,1700 or 2000hp really doesent matter, it is only in it's drag-spec configuration it will be ble to put down these hp numbers.

As it is now it produces 170hp at idle, 290hp at 2000rpm... and after that the turbos really kick in... so there is always enough power...!

Totally off bost, it produces somwhere between 550-600hp if everything continues as planned...
