I fail to see fails? No weak excuses for cars here?





Next up is this...*Stole most of this form a Boost cruisng post...

Apparently they got Ford cosworth 4cylinder up to 1280hp on 47psi


They want 2000hp with this


Quote:
Cast Garrett compressor wheels (right) tend to come apart above 50 psi. CNC billet aluminum wheels (middle) are stronger, but why not be different and use your own CNC billet titanium (left) compressor?


You'll need a turbo big enough for the job, which in this case is a 108mm twinscroll T4 turbo, with custom quad ball bearing CHRA and 100psi capability.




To get enough airflow at 12,000rpm(!) to get the job done, you'll need a skillfully ported head, complete with titanium valves and copper-beryllium valve seats:


And you're going to need a set of camshafts to handle the rpm and withstand tremendous ramp pressures, so why not a set of hollow titanium billets with DLC at only 234 grams each?



And since there is no aftermarket rod up to the task, just ask for a set of billet mmcs-titanium connecting rods at 286g each. Rod/Stroke ratio is 2.07:


For pistons, a set of custom beryllium pistons with DLC fits the bill, and since methanol is the fuel, 13:1 SCR is fine:


A strong piston pin is needed as well:

Toss in a custom titanium billet crank:

A set of 9000cc/min injectors:


And since a factory 4G63 block probably wouldn't hold up, just CNC machine your own from billet aluminum:


No head gasket is used:


And to put all that power to the gearbox, one needs a suitable multiplate clutch:

Yes, it is smaller than a cam gear:

An example of very efficient turbo manifold design from one of their recent projects:

No unfortunately, a V-twin should put out around 200hp yeah? Probably more torque then what ever the fiesta had


I'd love to see people's faces when they hear it...

"pretty much post anything awesome (4x4'ing to ricers that actually manage to look good)"

A 514 HP quad rotor (of 2.6) is impressive...not to mention the impressive enginering and expertise in getting 2000 out of a small lancer engine...

As far as I'm concerned the whole thread is subjective and a waste of band width. If arguments and crappy cars ensue it will give me a reason to lock it.
