Engine specs? What internals, etc.
|
wouldn't the nb head also make more power? iirc the euro 1.6 heads are same design as us 1.6 heads right?
regardless, that power is nuts |
Nothing too special about the engine. +1.5mm pistons, rods, ARP-all-the-bolts, ATI damper, oversizes valves, stiffer valve springs, Toda cams. Revs to 8300.
This 1.6 NB makes 110hp at the crank. |

This is the car who talk about the Reverant |
congrats. your car is nuts
|
Car is nuts indeed. I have no want, but respect.
|
Have you taken it to the drag strip at all? I think that car would be a hell of a fun time on the street but a nightmare for track or autocross use.
|
Guys, this is a drag racing car, and yes, it has been at drag strips multiple times.
|
Care to share the slip? I'd love to see what your MPH trap and 60ft time is. From the drivetrain it looks like you can really let it rip out of the hole.

Impressive technical achievement.

But why? The amount of work that went into this car could have been done on any engine, v8, 1.8, 4g63, FE3 etc. they just picked the 1.6. |

123mph is fast, can't wait to see the trap speed at full boost/power

If you can get that 60ft time down that car will post a very impressive time. Your trap speed is good for low 11s and possibly high 10s. That is a very fast car. Awesome work man, hope to see you pull a 10 second pass.
