Re: Near death experience
a good few have run 2 bar (or higher). Mostly the very high boost pressures will only be used for drag racing. I've ran 2.0 before on mine.

Do you know what sort of ratio they differ by?

hub numbers are generally quite close to flywheel numbers...atw numbers to flywheel have more losses than hub to flywheel numbers, with the addtion of a wheel and tyre contact it would make sense...so 513 atw would be more power than 513ath...people say around 5-10% area difference between the two...
but your running enough power to not even worry about it, lol...
just my 2p..
Re: Near death experience
is that only 200hp at 6500rpm?

Your car lived with Xxxx for a while ... my car sometimes lives there too LOL.
Pretty sure Locky will be trying to get a good time in to get on the TOTB team. From what i've read, it's been wet when he's had a go so far, and that doesn't make for good 1/4's. Think his pal salamanzer will be trying to get some runs in before TOTB too.
When in the YSR car, i saw a little of what that motor of yours could do on the strip. If you've got it all running sweet, i expect you'll put in some really good times. Think it'd be an interesting and probably close "race". your T88 (drag king!) vs. GT35 (erm, drag queen - LOL - sorry locky couldn't resist that one).
Re: Near death experience
i will be fun.
i wont have any slicks on this time, but i need practise.
this time the tyres will be lit up before runs, unlike last time

Re: Near death experience
Just for reference, your power fc will record the max boost pressures that you have run since you started the engine or reset the logging part of the system. You can see all tha values on the hand commander, it saves you staring at boost gauages when your accelerating rather quickly
Nice car BTW, i thought having a 1000kg Mk1 with 300BHP singled me out as nuts, that thing must be off the scale!!
When you crash it, can i have the engine
