all that power to the front wheels, torque steer too much.
you wont have any traction with that large amount of power.

Congrats tony.. Seems like all that waiting and hard work is starting to pay off?? When are you running it at WSID?

nice work there, must be a damm big turbo as you only got about 2psi at 3500rpm OMG.

from looking at the graph and knowing somewhat about the car i wouldnt think that traction would be too hard a thing in it with some decent tyres semi's on the front it should be fairly easy to keep traction in it (unless you dont want too then let the fun begin hehehe)

Now lets see some numbers next season of Sport Compact yeah?

this car has alot of work done to the suspension setup and also LSD

when i drove it when it had a tad less power it didnt have any issues with getting the power down

congrats again tony... post up that time slip you got

As I've said before many times times - Awesome stuff - well done.....

As mentioned above, put up any time slips you have, you know we're all keen to see how well it does on the 400m run :)

Is this power at the wheels or engine?? Regardless, 343kW is huge from a 1.8l, congratulations on the result!!!

it's a barina, if people saw it on the street they would probably think it's the 1.4, and then it becomes even funnier :D

nice effort there..

If they see it, yes, possibly
If they heard it, no,
if you were sitting next to it at a set of lights and heard the engine even at idle, you'd not dare to run it.

Does it sound that menacing idling ??? is it running a straight out exhaust ???

I've been next to numerous over 500kw turbo cars of all types, all sounded fairly tame at idle, even a couple of TT Monaros, only if you give the gas pedal a thump can you hear the turbos :D very stealthy :)

One guy I know of with a 600kw Xr6 T car sounds almost totally stock when idling, you wouldn't even have a clue as to it's power output if you were next to it at a set of lights ;)

Jeepers creepers!! :eek: That’s impressive.. How many KW does that equate to at the engine?? I’d like to tell all my mates that’s all.

I would feel safe enough to bet on that one :)

Unless Courteneys, Regals, or some other tuner has one with more to promote their products....

There's a German tuner which does the old Cali C20LET's and even the Z20LET's to over 450kw :)

a stock 1.8 might put out (on a good day) around 70 to 72 kws, so over 400hp is shit hot!
