Didn't think it would take you long to respond. hehe I'm only going off the top of the dyno chart that says
"Fly Wheel Power"...

Yup, the TCF is a correction factor you can apply if you want to estimate the engine power... TCF above 1.0 would alter the plot. Since mine is 1.0, no correction to estimate engine power.

Sweet ride bro. Ive seen this thread since it was started, just always wondered what the heck this has to do with 951's, or even porsches? Not to knock your project. I guess its kinda odd a supra fan would be posting on a porsche forum, about supras. No offense.

So we decided to put it on the dyno at the car show and put another couple of pounds of boost into it, now 16psi... made 489WHP

So I sold the car to my flatemate (his business) to concentrate on the AE86 track car and another wee project I am planning. It made it into a mag...

hmm I still havn't dropped the idea of putting a similar engine in my 951 a decent low k 1uz cost's less than a gasket set for one of these Porsche motors ..

Hmmm I would be inclined to put it in a lighter car, like an RX7 series 1 or AE86 something like that.
