Outstanding!!! Was this a hub dyno again?

2 bar is low for other time attack cars. Running it to 2 bar on a dyno is a good thing. Lets you find out where the leakages can occur. That's also great news about the gasket setup. Pyramid rings right?

Don't listen to him. He's English!!

They don't believe anyone unless it done in England and by an Englishman.

They're still pissed about Boston and later in WW11 we had to come to their rescue.

I Don't think you get time attack cars.

Gustafs, Patricks and Rods cars are all Time Attack cars. all run crazy horsepower and crazy boost levels. all have crazy aerodynamics. Built for 1 reason. To do a lap time quicker than everyone else.

If I recall correctly he had been running 1 bar, he said he went to the dyno to try higher boost, ran 1.5 bar and peaked at 2 bar. I asked if it was a dyno queen at 2 bar. If someone wants spit their dummy out and have a personal dig at me for that it says more about them than me.

The car really only needs to do 1 fast lap. so if he can push 2bar on his engine on a dyno. Then he knows where the limit is with the engine. so he can now run 1.7bar if he wished and if he wanted to overboost to 2bar on a straight he can.
He probably wont straight away and slowly ramp it up.

Basically like a local australian drag team. Their VL turbo with the rb30et block (factory fitted) runs on 60psi. they had it on the dyno and decided to shut the gates to see what it can do. topped out just under 75psi. the car already runs a 7.5 seconds down the 1/4
Their other car with a RB30 bottom end and a 26 head couldn't do 70psi. they blew the head off the car.

What kind of fuel do they feed a 60psi engine?
Not diesel
