I don't know how he got 400hp from one, tends not to let out his "methods". Have a few ideas though.

As for the Sunny thing, I'll drop it at the end of the 1/4 mile when I'm sitting there waiting for him to finish.

Then put the engine in a fezzy like u said u were...and when he still said he would race u.

I think the general idea was to make it a fair race...i.e FWD. Then maybe sunny will change his mind or give a u a response.

You can only tune an engine so far, it doesn't matter how much boost you put through it....an engine has it's limits no matter how much boost.
I still dont believe 400bhp from a 1.9 CVH.

Proof needed.......

Ah ha, fezzy is really sunny, well the assumptionsare running out of his mouth the same!

READ THE TEXT NEXT TO MY NAME.

Then when you realise that I never mentioned any engine sizes or specs you can retract all your comments. All i do know is it does run NOS as he competes with it an NOS ain't allowed.

erm......myself and Sunny live on opposite ends of the country :rolleyes: and he has a funny accent :wink: :grin:

You did say he "might use an American long block".....so i questioned that.. :rolleyes:

your last comment does not make any sense......."all i do know is it does run NOS as he competes with it an NOS aint allowed"
So does he run NOS or not :???:

OK I put my hands up, miss type, I did mean to write doesn't use NOS. I made a guess that he uses an american long block as the comp is lower. It is an 8 valver though and not a zetec bottom end. Look I am admitting that I don't know how or what is done apart from what I've said, although a mate mentioned to me he had methanol injection, probably cools the charge even more. Dunno though.

Methanol is used more like a fuel, as per the top drag cars use. I would doubt it would be used to cool the charge air as it is very, very flammable and if it hit anything it shouldn't.....BOOM!!!

That would have to be some engine to hold that and it wouldn't have much of a life span.
