Monza with a T34

[Clint]

Wanted to check that I was making the right sort of curves before I finished off my mapping so Steve at Track'N'Road spun the old girl up on the rollers for me, dont think I need to change much except the boost control max HP was produced with 22 PSI which I think is very good

[THEDMAN]

Well impressed.............

Wish I had that at the back wheels

[kev16v]

very good clint when can u do mine

[ludsonline]

372 Bhp and 157 MPH at 6,700 how does that compare to the gearcalc?

[Kevmk2]

Thats a top result there clint

What injectors/cams you running?

[Willid1]

Have you weighed the finished car and how does the power to weight ratio compare to other "performance" cars.

I would guess very well from your stories but wondered just how good it was.

JJY weighs 860kg (I took it to our local council tip when I'd finished it and asked a rather bemused weighbridge man to tell me what it weighed) but I guess a Cossie Escort is going to be a fair bit more than this.

Luds gearcalk said 181 at 7630 and the rollers showed 178 so very accurate.

Kev16v anytime!

Kev Standard Cams, Standard Escort Cosworth Turbo and X039 injectors.

Cant wait to get rid of the bleed valve and sort the boost control out so it holds the boost rather than dropping off.

[Kevmk2]

What are those XO39 injectors? are they the same as the formula 1 jobbies?

Yes m8 they were all from the Tyrell F1 package.

And there was me thinking my car was slow when we came out of the petrol station on sunday. you shot off like a scolded cat and I struggled to get anywhere near you. Now I know it was 372 BHP i feel a little better.

Well done mate, on standard stuff thats bloody good.

What car were you in Unky_Si

[Kevmk2]

Aha,i thought so ,the bloke who built my engine has a stack of them sitting in his workshop
Arent they low impendance though? or however you spell it lol
Didnt Tyrell close down in 1990?
What ecu are you running?

Yes they are low impedence ideal for all the cossie webber ECU's I am running a L8, the injectors were from Cosworth's Stock not Tyrells as they used to build thier engines.

[Kevmk2]

So they would work with a P8 then


So far ive managed to find 4x Green injectors for £85 2nd hand,just been cleaned and flow tested by bosch with receipt. Thats more in my price range.
Just need another 4

[AndyBRT]

whats the flow rate on them injectors please clint ?

[RETRO_AL]

must be a great feeling when you built the engine yourself to wish i had the skills to do that

[RETRO_AL]

what final drive ratio have you got in there?

[Kevmk2]

3.44 i believe

[cossymax]

Very Nice Bet your really happy mate

So did they do a bit of tweaking to get the increase or just add a bit of boost?

Nice torque curve mate,

Well done Clint

See you next weekend then

[Clint]

They have a similer flow to a grey.

3.44:1

Its about 1psi difference I needed to know the relationship the boost was having on HP so I can work out when we up the boost if it drops out of its efficiency band.

[Clint]

I have been trying to flatten my boost curve today, my brain hurts, I know I shouldnt try and invent the wheel but I may of found a very good way of stopping the spike and keeping it flat, I have done exactly that but run out of time before I could up the boost to an exceptable level so its running a very flat curve with no initial spike at 1.2 Bar at the moment

Cant wait to get it retested with a flat curve now!

[Banishit]

Dont know if you fellas know about these boys in the states but their injectors are well cheap 8 for $200 !!! have not had them posted but a mate got some from them nice job
