Rev to about 3,000rpm and pull off as normal. it drives through town at 30mph in second gear, 40mph in 3rd gear and will even pull full throttle from 3,200. This is with a 3.9 diff
I seriously doubt it! |

Didnt mean to sound an arrogant twat by that but, I built my Sprint originally with a 296sp, it weighed 650kg and showed 134 bananas on Swiftys dyno bench. My wife drove it on the London to Brighton run from Crystal Palace, through London traffic while she was 7 months pregnant - shows how easy a 296 is to drive. Ive since fitted a 310sp and a Salisbury diff set at 120lb, the 296 showed 140 Baldwin bananas, the 310 shows 155 Baldwins, she has driven it to work and to Tesco for shopping no trouble. Between Gavin and I we have run nearly every cam out there and we kept putting off fitting a 310 because everyone said theyre undriveable - Bullshit! I say, if there was a cam that would give me more power and more undriveability I would fit it and still gladly drive it on the road. This thread is about a cam choice for a trackday car, if you fit a little cam - 286 or less you will regret it as soon as anything else powers past you, then spend loads of money changing it for a proper cam. Paul I was purely making a pun on pussy. Years ago I was takled out of putting a 276 in a 998, plumped for the 266, waste of time and money. It was rubbish and I swaped it for a 276 within 6 months. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

yep, a 256 is probably a very good cam for a turboed 998. On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:

Paul, Ill never say those banana figures are gospel, hence calling them Swifty bananas and Baldwin bananas - people can make of them what they want

Is it because you car is so light compared to a std mini.. so pulling off is easier... I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Yea erm.. I just took my short stroker out after having it off the road for 6 months, with webers and bp300. Seriously, once you've got on the power and the rev counters spinning round the guage, past 8000rpm like it doesn't exist, you'll realise exactly why you put up with the minor inconvenience in traffic. Truly awsome |
