Well I do care about what the last six months work on this engine and too many dollars will produce as far as horsepower goes. Not a unreasonable goal considering every other person on the forum seeks exactly the same thing. Im sure it will have more performance in all area's but thats pretty much a given, so will wait and see if I can actually put an engine together which holds together and holds good power.
 
 

If you havent opened the drum it should be OK.
 
Also look forward to catching up again sometime. More than likely at Superlap
 
Cheers

It could hit 300rwkw stretched in Banzai Time Attack form if the block holds up. Prolly with a bit over 20psi. 15-17psi on conservative timing & running richer would be more like the norm with 230-250rwkw.

Glad you went with the GTX. Midway between the 3071 & 3076 you were torn between.

Sounds good steve. there are 7 of us Mexicans coming up this year for superlap.

Cool, will see you soon. Looks like I will be back at Winton later in the year for the Winton 300. Not sure if I will enter the 300 but will be there for the sprint rounds. Need a crew if your interested

If im free i will help out.

Thanks. Will talk about it more at Superlap.
The new wastegate was delivered yesterday. Looks a treat but will have to wait and see how it performs once fitted. The welder is showing up at the end of next week so I have a little bit of time to sort out the odds and ends before its fitted. Decided to make an airbox after chatting with 2many2s. It wont be a work of art, but will work perfectly well.
Do you run a exhaust temp guage in the Pearl?
Have you tried a layer of dried ice on the intercooler? I can do this on my car but would be good to hear some feedback on this trick.
Cheers

The fuel is VT 102 octane with less than 5% alcohol content. 

VT 102?
VP Motorsport 100 (RON) or VP Motorsport 109 (RON)? 

Its VT 102. Its the fuel supplied at Wakefield Park. Not sure on Winton. Will find out.
 
Cheers

I found this footage of my car before I bought it. It was using the tein 8kg/4kg springs which shows just how much the front dives under cornering. I guess the front 16" wheel probably dont help either..Times look like 1.14.
