JamieP Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 GSC's are an old design now, I'd go with a set of SRD stage 1's, well proven to work really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little num Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 never mind street beast get yourself a trackday booked and really unleash the power. Or nurburgring with me and si on the dragonball, with good driving you should easily do a 8 min lap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrashcanman Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Less duration, more low-end, more suited to what he wants. GSC make very good cams. Why has your delightful picture vanished JG? It confused me a tad as we'll. Or is it just me Edit: back now, strange :/ lol Edited April 25, 2014 by thetrashcanman (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littler Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 No you have not missed it- will try and get something uploaded later as I know you like to keep your records up to date! will keep my eye out for it 640ftlbs by 3700rpm is king, the area under the torque curve will be very impressive, your on a tubular manifold too not cast?

Yes it's a Boostlogic T4manifold and your not wrong but impressive doesn't seem to express how I feel when I hit the loud pedal now;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 What boost are you running now John? And how much boost was it on the 600bhp map? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbt Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 What boost are you running now John? And how much boost was it on the 600bhp map? Original 607 bhp map was 1.6 bar and full boost map is now 1.8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Going on your old 1/4mile terminal, and the fact SRR will be under reading on your car a tad due to it being auto, I'm betting on high boost you are now ITRO a real 670bhp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Ryan was tweaking whilst we were driving he felt that without doubt it was in region of 650hp. To be fair Jamie I am not chasing a top HP figure I just wanted that high torque kick in the pants which it certainly gives now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Great figures, you must be very pleased. Surrey RR is a bigger for grip. Hub dyno is the way forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Next decision will be the hard one do I change the cams from stock to 264's? Ermmmmm...Yes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Thanks Mark Yes we are pleased-always wanted the car to perform best in lower rev range rather than just outright top speed. Next decision will be the hard one do I change the cams from stock to 264's? Depends on your rev limit really You would really need to get on a hub dyno to see if there would be a benefit. My guess is probably yes, but there's no point dropping wads of cash into the cams, fitting and re-mapping if it's not really going to gain much.

Ryan said himself that the stock cams are holding the car back at the top end, which I knew would be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Ryan said himself that the stock cams are holding the car back at the top end, which I knew would be a problem. Makes sense as the next stage then to fit after market cams. Question is which one to go for? Still a fantastic result!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it would be 264/264, its a happy medium and we can keep the low down torque but then still make more mid to topend power. Theres a few tbings Ryan suggested to help maximise our current setup.

Justin Bieber Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Nice result John! Must be an absolute weapon on the street Do you really need the cams though? You may free up a bit of top end power but is 650hp not enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may free up a bit of top end power but is 650hp not enough? Feels like a 650bhp car low down with the torque, but on the graph it drops torque at the top end because of the ridiculous wheel spin. Still feels much faster on the road though even when we have lost bhp, but the extra torque makes up for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
