Mercury Motorsport Built And Tuned R35 Willall Turbo Upgrade

[handbrake]

Trent, John, Gordon and the lads at Mercury have been working hard the last few days on and off getting the tune on the car right.

I reckon it was the cream buns for smoko and firebreather pizza that I got delivered around lunchtime today though that sparked some true Mercury genius.

I think I'm going to have to buy the boys pizza more often.

great result Mark, nice work to all involved.

p.s. you're going to need that wing!

[handbrake]

and some big rocks!

[Duncan]

excellent result....but have QLD gone metric yet? what is a "hp"?

[handbrake]

lol, we are just simple banana benders.

Although I am sure Duncan doesn't need me to tell him, for everyone else its 475 kW at the wheels

[Martin Donnon]

What you do need is a proper front splitter Mark......I think I know someone that may have something like that for you.....

Congrats on the build though, and really glad to see you are happy

Awesome avatar mark.. have you got hi res pic of that?

That's one of the pics from our MASSIVE dyno day yesterday! Not sure if I can get my hands on the hi-res as I am pretty sure that shot will be used as the main pic for the subsequent article in High Performance Imports.

Where can I buy that flame thrower kit from?

Great results. She must be a weapon.

[handbrake]

No flame thrower kit. Just no cats. It happens when you come off the power due to heat / unburnt fuel. It is not related to a rich tune either which is another misconception.

[Huy]

Haha. I was only kidding.

I love that closeup shot in post #16. Is it going to damage the rear bumper, though?

[handbrake]

some guys in the states have actually sent pms to get the details of the 'flame thrower kit' I am using, so wasn't sure!

As for the rear bumper, it may do, but in reality it will only occur on the track on changing gears at which time there will be more airflow behind the car. the artificial environment of the Dyno room isnt helping!
