Impressive, high boost with a high compression to, proves it's well set up. Is it a K-Series you run ? |

yip 1400 16v k-series :) not much too the spec to be ohnest, though it has been a logn time in development with alot of stuff tried, standard long engine with a chambered head to lower CR and piper steel valve retainers as have had 8 of the standard ones fail to date (luckily never dropped a valve!) early wet liner bottom end with early mahle pistons megasquirt, pulsar T28, applying power through an ATF filled R65 gearbox via a robert-inspired twin spring clutch.:)

I like the way, that you know what sort of figure your car should produce, and when you get a figure that you know is too high, you dont believe it.

The two amazing things about this car are that it runs a standard bottom end (including pistons?) and that at avon last year no-one did more runs than Dennis; just kept going round and round. No pussying around letting it cool down etc. Fastest 998 mini in the world? 13.05 1/4 mile 106mph

cheers again gents :) .. aye still standard pistons, though did crack a ringland in one set of AE's but im absolutely positive that was poor mapping (and red mist) on my part and not a failing of the piston! that was on my first attempt with lots of boost on the 9.5:1 CR turbo 16v k-series 11.9@118.9 :)

Very impressive Denis, should get you some good times at Avon this year! Which rolling road did you use? I've got mine booked in with Performance HQ (Dastek) who I used last year to see if I've improved anything for this year.

this defo is very impressive! how's your boost treeshold, and how's does it drive with the t28, which a/r and comp trim? (I guess t3 60trim) compressor is a 60 trim T3 turbine is 79 Trim, .86 A/R Housing i.e. a Pulsar GTi-R unit. boost starts to build at 4k and builds failry linearly to 5k where i have 1 bar, and 19psi is reached at 5500rpm the slow build of boost is much easier to controll than when i tried smaller t25-based turbochargers and as the engine rev's out high it isnt actually an issue to keep it on the boil. boost is held without falling right to the red line. i love how it drives, until 4k its like a torquey NA motor, with good mpg. above 4k it becomes an animal, however alot of people would hate the lag / threshold. depends on your driving style. with your playing with VNT etc, i imagine you would hate it to be ohnest :$ turbo 16v k-series 11.9@118.9 :)

I've got mine booked in with Performance HQ (Dastek) who I used last year to see if I've improved anything for this year. Keith cheers keith. this was ran at extreme motorsport, who not to long ago installed a dastec RR setup. Only popped along as a mate called and said a RR day was organised and they were short on numbers and i was free so popped along! i like the dastek rollers, the cooling setups are always great, my car gets close to boiling up on others rolling roads around here :( the engies always had the power to get good times keith, its the driver(well mostly the driver), and my insistance on keepig it a full weight road car :) away to crail in a few hours as its a non mag day to put in some practice and play with some new toys :) as should be nice and quiet! hope she makes some good figures for you! turbo 16v k-series 11.9@118.9 :)

Good work Dennis, going by your terminal speeds at the 1/4 it was obvious your car has more than 60 bhp -MINI CLUBMAN 1380 TURBO- |
