Probably not far over, if at all or ever but it made sense to me to future proof it while it was being done.

I wanted something reliable so my concept was build it for like 500+ or something and I could maybe expect it to last a bit at 80 or so % of its capabilities as I wanna be able to rack up some laps.

Made sense in my head :)

Wiring is in progress and will be finished by Tuesday next week, going to need some heavy duty straps to hold this thing back from jumping off the dyno seriously.

No PRP brace on this build, we have followed the laws of physics not marketing hype. 

Don't fancy redrilling/replaneing that thing to suit anyway. No CDM parts on my car, only JDM & USADM

I think it will be hard for the car NOT to make 300kw , gate springs are 14psi and I expect this is the figure I'll be getting. 

I mean, obviously, the head is akin to a Mario Rossi daytona 305ci head & this is what happens.....make big power easily. 

Moreover, I think the thing I'm most excited about is the sound....a big valve head with a big bore no nonsense exhaust. One rear muffler only, can't disturb the exhaust gas when I'm on the limit...but I can disturb the neighbours within a 3 block radius honestly. It's going to sound like a peripheral port 3 rotor, I've done the maths.

Cheers,

Benny "The Don".

  Nice, I imagine a reasonable middle of the road strap on (for general home use  would have a strong enough strap to hold it to the dyno, but good to hear you are also over thinking that.

 

Mario rosi daytona head is also NASA spec? Just trying to keep up.

Can you share the maths for calculating what the exhaust will sound like?

Basically yes....and I've done it all without sponsors.

As for the sound...its all about the wastegates merge, 2 into 1 then into the main pipe, will make it sound like a 3 rotor. 

Will be serious velocity, I told the tuner to make sure I'm spitting 6 foot flames like the Brill Steel S15.

I think it will be hard for the car to make 300kw because my gearbox can not hold stock turbo power , gate springs are 14psi and I expect this is the final boost pressure needed to turn my gearbox into marbles.

Haha well to be fair, I'm not sure PRP were trying to market towards the 240kw SR's with those braces... 

Is this your car?

I guess I was wrong with the Samsonas and the power, but 506kW was close enough.

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
