The noise on the second run (about 1:45 in the vid), when the car sucks up a big gob of air & goes for it was fantastic (that run did 154bhp!) the guy stood next me actually jumped too!

The chap who did the testing pointed out that the fuelling is leaning out at a cruising speeds & an upgraded fuel regulator may improve things. My old Smart had it's regulator replaced with an Audi one I wonder If I could do the same for the Rover Maybe using something from a Rover turbo engine?

Sounds sweet loz. Give me a shout I've got a spare Rover thats being broke if you need any bits to try.

Now they are nice figures. The graphs look "peaky" so improved fuelling may well flatten them out and give steady power througout the rev range.

Good stuff man

Pretty much the same power i had in mine, and i still remember how fun that was

Nice figures for a Rover engine lol. What's the PTW on this badboy now then fella?

 

[Loz]

Cheers guys,
PTW? I'm not sure I want to weigh the car but don't where to go yet.

At a guess if the car is about 800kg's I make it 192.5bhp/tonne, which sounds nice.

TB69 I let you know when I've found out more about the F.R.
