Now that I think about it, I have doubled + the stock NA hp!

Post by douglas vincent »

Thats how freaking tough our NA block are! Obviously I needed some high octane to keep from detonation, but the stock NA block is now making 260 plus chp!

This was one of my goals along time ago, just forgot about it. Maybe I should write them down....

I am finally at a really really really hard goal now, the 12's. Maybe, just maybe, I will get it by the end of the dragstrip season. I suspect I will have installed the stock turbo by then, directed into the SC, with meth injection. At this stage we will see how strong NA pistons are....

I know subies arent about dragging, but the dragstrip is obviously a great way to test my engine enhancements.

Under the virtually unlimited rules rallying in the early 1980s went wild.

The 1984 Lancia Delta S4 had a 1759 cc inline four with a Volumex lobe-type supercharger in series with an exhaust-driven KKK turbocharger.

Engine management was complicated, but 440 bhp at 8000 rpm was claimed.

The car with AWD weighed in at 2185 pounds.

The cars were dangerous and after some spectacular and tragic crashes what was known as Group B was cancelled.
