BenV Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 nah man sounds cool and all but there nothing but lanes and small rods around here. so if you put a massive tubby on it would take ages to get going Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 I know what your saying mate, its all good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BenV Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 same with me i dont know weather to get a hybrid or a td04. whats the difference between them in lag? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 There is a bit more lag but when it comes on full boost the TD's pull much harder due to being a larger turboAs long as you got a decent set up the lag shouldnt affect you too much Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Si@Fiske Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 lag is for winners Quote Link to post Share on other sites
'4AGTE' Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 amen to that full boost at 500rpm for me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BenV Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 cheers man. i'l have to start thinking which route i want to take now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paul w Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 amen to that full boost at 500rpm for me Think you've got an issue there mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ecksjay Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 hm good point about the roads, may be worth going for something more responsive, alot of people dont like and arent used to lag, especially as starlets are renowned for their awesome response, remove that and they feel entirely different, only really suited to motorways etc, basically high speed runs, which is scary on its own in a starlet, with panels peeling off etc give it some thought anyway lewis, thats alot of money to spend on what in essence is a uk n/a. we'll defo help out where we can though, just let me know if there's anything you need.

BenV Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 think im going to go down the hybrid route, been thinking and if a tdo4 is lagy then im not going to get what i want out of it, so a good hybrid is definatly on the cards, what sort of power could you get out of the setup?

RobSR Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 well setup hybrid...depending on boost, and how well its mapped etc...210+ @ the fly is acheiveable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BenV Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 sounds good to me. i want 200atw, is this possible? p.s. sorry for hyjacking the thread Quote Link to post Share on other sites
briggers Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 never heard of that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BenV Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 never heard of that.what? 200 atw. is that ambitious? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
briggers Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 well to have 200 at the wheels your looking at arround 260 at the fly and on a hybrid i have never heard of that. im no expert so the 260 is a rough estimate give or take a 5 or so bhp Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WallaceGlanza Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 260bhp and 200atw would mean a 30% loss through the transmission which is huge! Even 20% is quite high for a fwd and that would mean 240bhp for 200atw. 230bhp should be achievable on a properly setup hybrid and thats nigh on 200atw with normal transmission loss.

BenV Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 cheers guys that is some good news. will the engine be able to cope with that sort of power increase or will i have to forge it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
briggers Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 thats what i meant lol give or take 30 bhp lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
briggers Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 well i have heard this is the limits of the stock engine. so to achieve this you will need the best set up. im aiming for 200bhp first and have a drive arround like that for a while. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
briggers Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 just a bit of info for you if you didnt read up already. abott who is running this :here is my set up at the mo1.5bar boost268bhp218 torque211 whpand he has a proper set up so i was right give or take 5 bhp.

briggers Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 its in technical discussions and its on turbo tech under turbo spec or something like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BenV Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 cheers bud, i'l go and check that out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 200 whp on a hybrid is ambicious...mark is only making 203 whp on a td05 at 1.1 ish bar i think...you dont need to go chasing figures, its what the end result/package is like to drive on the road.

Starbus Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I can map these using FC Dataloggit, just north of the midlands. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
