I'm no electrician but make sure you buy a heavy enough duty ring terminal. Not sure what amps are drawn through the cable but you don't want a light weight crimp terminal on there. Btw. Our terminal did the same and as a previous post says there are two nuts acting as lock nuts securing the...

Pingpong, you make a valid point. When I was researching our inlet design a number of factors make up the ideal runner length for example. One of these factors was inlet cam duration. There are lots of other things to consider, some hard to measure/ascertain. I'm not saying that inlet X won't...

Chip. Do the exhausts make much difference? If so, in what part of the rev range? We have 2.5" ktR stealth on ours. Twin box plus a sports cat. Sounds too quiet on track and wonder if it might help our top end revs with the centre box removed.

Trying to pick the bones out of this thread. LoL We are running 438s and wosner 12.8cr pistons. The high comp comes from the head. It was previously to us skimmed alot. Fred needed a bigger idler pully to take the slack out of the cambelt! Currently making 195@7k at max torque is 162@6k. Will...

Sorry Mike. Missed your post. We think its running around 13:1. Possibly more. Didn't know how much the head had been skimmed:-S we are toying with E85 conversion so we can get the advance where it should be. Do you think advance will improve output by a great margin?

Yep. Well, home built is doing it a little injustice to be honest;) laser cut plenum, one off runners mated to jenvey mr23 manifold. 45mm internal runner dia with trumpets to suit.

Bigger plenum and longer trumpets you say? In parts this thread has been very interesting but I hate slipping through all the unnecessary clutter. Our torque curve drops off at 7k with our inlet. However, not sure if this is partly due to the lack of ignition advance due to very high...

Correct :) you can change the probe count if you run an extended trace route.

That is a very good result indeed!

Sounds promising if it's making 223@6.5k

Looks like a good start Dan. Will keep an eye on this :)

That Cortina overtake was simply hillarious! Car looks like its trying to kill you. Overteer on brakes (backing it in motorbike style) and on power. Enjoyed watching that.

That's looks really good Russ! Nice driving too; you can tell just by the note of the engine you know exactly when to lift and re-apply the throttle to help pivoting the car. I went to the David Higgins rally school some years back and also managed to "win" the timed final run there:) that was...

That looks flipping amazing! Will need do read all of that build thread later

We had exactly the same issue on our inlet manifold/plenum as we used a jenvey mr23 to the head. Our head ports are pretty big too. We initially just used a std gasket but it had a very small leak. We still have the o-ring groves so we got some rings from Jevey and they seal fine. However, if...
