Its a hopped up "claimed" ex works EVO1 gettin its *** handed to it.
Merc is on the regular radials tho,so i get beat like a damn outdated stamp outta the hole-but no matter as i hit second.
Also notice how relatively silent it is.
Has changed that since with a damn flowmaster-that im gonna toss the ---- off the car at first poss to be replaced by a apple racing one.

Nother one.
Against one of the turbo bricks.
Sorry to say..the run was plagued by misfires out the *** due to the main wire of the MSD coming lose.
None the less.
Gives an idea how the car hooks,even on regular unprepped asphalt.

Re: I´m SOOOOO not from around here..Noob or not
Whats more.
Around here we use fairly large huffers for our dailys.
Reasons are that they "trickle" out the back door of Scania and Volvo.
The one i use for instance is really for a 415hp 6 liter diesel-and the old average rule applies that a diesel consumes approx 80% more air than its gas equivalent.Ergo sum-sorta.
Further,we´ve learned that by building the engines up as were they fairly stoutly tuned NA engine-apart from compression,we also get away with LARGE turbine ARs and cams that are "NA" as well.
After ------ around with primary pipe layout for ages..we sorta got the bigger style huffers to work.
Positives are for instance..that we can keep levels of boost down.Some of the engine setups will swallow air in a manner that the huffer gasps for it anyways.
Even the old iron sled Volvo B20 engine run in the low/mid 10s in street trim in Volvo 140 series cars-and this indeed in fairly tight budgets.
Hte merc for instance..the schwitzer..200 new.A chinese Tial rippoff from the local e-bay another 100..an old intercooler element and some TIG welding..
In fact,the whole project per se including overhaul of the rear axle,slicks,tow diff turbos,two setups of injectors and our "homebrewn" VEMS box(www.vems.se) ECU has set me back approx 2000 bux all in all.
Aint to bad seing the performance and true every day driver status.
Buuut..as usual it all goes to hell in a handbasket,and seing the potential of the engine im gonna put together another bottom end for it at the shop and elevate boost to see what happends.
This..entails our home made con rods in the bridgeport and some Mahles for a Volvo and a 3 disc sintered Sachs to cope with the power.
Aiming..for 600.
Well see.
One thing´s for sure.
Back in the late late 80 a swedish dragracer by the name of Kjell Karlsson used th POS motor in his railed chassied Vega and ran a 7,8@330km/h(205mph)
That..tells that the power is there to be had at least.
