What power do you reckon?

Evening All,

I'm currently getting some parts together for my single set up that ill be getting done soon. I just wondered if anyone would be able to hazard a guess as to what kind of power i'd be looking at? At the moment it's a bpu auto and ill be keeping the auto box with a transmission cooler on it. I know the autobox will max out but do you reckon it would get past 550hp with the below? Just a rough estimate if anyone would know......

60mm non billet turbo kit from whiffin

264 Cams

Syvecs

850cc Injectors

Walbero 450LPH pump

FMIC.

3 inch to 4 inch exhaust

Thanks.

isnt the stock box good for around 600hp as long as the torque stays lowish 550-

I think the syvecs can keep the torque at bay slightly but just wondered if it would be close to 600 or i'd be looking at 550 or below.

You'll have to wind the boost up, but it's possible to hit 550 bhp with that list.

I like boost

im sure ive seen around 600 on stock box because thats what im aiming for with a similar setup untill i change to a built box or go manual

i have a different turbo but that kit is rated from 500 - 900? so you should max the box out you just need to know whats safe for the box.

Eventually I'd go built box I'm gettin lazy in my old age.

lol i know the feeling

Didn't Ryan G map the torque to be killed for longer during gear changes on John Baileys 600bhp auto to help save the box? Might be worth doing to help lengthen the gearboxes life after you go single.

I'm not sure mate. I know it's all down to the mapping on the day really so it's hard to say.

Where you getting the power checked mate? Could wildly vary depending on where you go.

I'd say 500-550 would be a fairly safe bet. I don't think you would push up to 600 without the billet, could be wrong though. If it did get you there..... I reckon you'd be pushing the EGTs a bit high.

I dont know yet mate where it will be going to get mapped. If it was 550 or slightly higher i'd be well happy with that.

If you go just about anywhere in Scotland you can play it safe with around 600-650hp

I only know of 1 place that gives a conservative power. Saw a BPU Supra run 530bhp a couple of years back, walked away from it on the motorway on the way home

I have 500bhp from my stock engine and going through my stock auto box. All mapped by Ryan on an HKS F con pro. Has been running as a daily driver and I don't hang around. To be honest that power level is enough for me!

It wont be mapped in Scotland mate that's a certainty lol

What turbo do you have Steve?

A tad off topic but id rather have a built autobox than a V160/1. Nothing to do with being lazy I just think its a great auto in stock form so built one would be mega. So Good call.

Auto's are for Diesels. Couldn't live with one in a fast petrol car

In your shoes I'd just drive it to destruction mate, auto boxes are ten a penny so if it breaks then just stick another in

I would say def. sub 600 bhp.

Running a 60mm turbo at 1.4 bar you should hopefully be ok. Its difficult to quote numbers as they vary so much dependant on dyno/date - 5yrs ago a reading of 500bhp for bpu was unheard of now its ten a penny.

Tony, aslong as its 1rwhp more than Alex, I assume you will be chuffed

Haha I'm not chasing numbers or comparing mate. If it's a nice set up with around 550 or a little more I'll be chuffed.

Cheers for input bud.

Can if he wants, doesn't bother me tbh

Good luck with the build tony, bout time another single appeared up this side of the border that's finished lol

I'm not comparing or in the mind set to have a more powerful car than people. That's not the issue here at all. Cheers Alex.

This is correct Ryan killed the torque to protect the autobox, and car was running 607bhp and is was hilariously quick, even more so now John's got the built box on.

But even with Ryan reducing the torque from what Chris told me it was still killing the autobox, and would have spat it's guts out eventually so I'd say 500-550 is safe although evidently 600 can be done for a reasonable period of time.

At least finish yours before scott

At least finish yours before scott

People will be walking on Mars before Scott finishes.
