I stuck my turbo on the little car around a year ago now, today was the first time I have had set up properly as I have been faffing about with JAW
and megasquirt with it must be said limited results as I am up 25% on power than previously enjoyed.
Anyway, result, 201BHP from a completely standard 919 blade engine, the power curve is with 100BHP @ 6000rpm, in CEC world that would be in the
3000rpm mid range zone, happy as larry!
Description
Its got a nice flat curve from around 4000rpm when the boost cuts in, no nasty pinking noises, result.
When I last drove it the wheels lit up in third at any speed on your right foot, this is going to be mad now as it weighs wet around 430kg.... I weigh
around 13 stone which makes it:
465.12 BHP/ton
390.63 BHP/ton with driver
The RR was Torque of the Devil in Uxbridge, Chris spent a lot of time refining the map and gently building up the revs and power, one very happy
customer.

Good result Mark.
Excellent result. When you say standard blade engine is there no mods at all? No decompression plate?
Impressive and cheap to replace if it does go bang but it shouldn't as it's not silly boost at 7psi. What throttle bodies are you using? And as last poster said have any done anything to drop the compression?
15 year old factory engine, no decomp plate, the only mod is a lockup clutch.
954 blade throttle bodies on cobbled up manifold, they do not fit spacing and size is diffrent.
I have got a decent intercooler, when boosting the inlet temp goes down as heat soak gets replenished with lots of fresh air
Megasquirt v1 with extra code.
Nice to see the BHP and Torque curves crossing at the correct revs, that always gives me confidence in the rolling road.
Now a few tins of slimfast and you could be up to 400 BHP per Tonne
Apologies if you've covered this in other threads (I'm just having a quick browse from my phone) but were the stock injectors big enough or did you have to replace them or cheat by upping the fuel pressure? Ho many cc/min are the stock items?
standard 954 blade TB's straight from Ebay for I think it was £75.
Standard pressure regulator so stock, just using a v12 jag pump as it was cheap.
Car was running rich upon arrival across the board so I guess these will flow more if required, no science here, just collected bits and bolted
together.

very impresive.. nice torque too !
