turbo
Hey you guys with turbo's or blowers ,how do I go about working out how much comp to run?what size turbo to use?what sort of carb set up?
I want use 98 octane fuel Anybody? |
Static compression in the 8s is pretty much standard for forced induction. There are SO MANY variables regarding camshaft Lobe Centre and duration, type of blower/turbo, boost pressure, cylinder head material, ignition timing etc. I'm using 98 octane for my car. 8.5:1, alloy heads, lots of duration and a 114 lobe centre, 16psi boost, 18 degrees total timing under boost.
As far as carbs and turbos..... out of my league sorry. |
Hi guys,
Just surfing around the www.clubcobra site. :3DSMILE: At McDonald Bros. Racing today and Rob Hamilton called over to give me a bit of a hand. He dropped off my roof bows. :3DSMILE: Sorry Andy but he did neglect your car for a day to do the hood bows. :eek: Unfortunately I will not have the roof done for Wakefield Park as the trimmer has now gone off with his kids on holidays for two weeks. **) Still (slightly) confident I will have the car at Wakefield Park :eek: Just after Rob left Michael Vjaric turned up in his Trans Am. **) **) He showed me the dyno sheets from the shootout at the Holden Ford event in Sydney. Just on 986HP at the rear wheels. Two or three near vertical climb lines. :eek: He was excited as two or three magazine are running stories on his car. :3DSMILE: To have the time and the desire %/ Then again he does drive it on the road. **) Cheers :3DSMILE: Bernie Bernie Knight Mt. Gambier South Australia |
