For those interested in finding out from the source you can call them on 01747 823 270... Facts are much more useful when sorting truth from bullshit true, but whatever anyone could say to me still would not convince me it was a genuine figure, i'm sure the fella's down there are genuine enough folk but as an eternal sceptic, i beleive nothing i'm told without hard evidence, because there's some competition history withing this company still does not cut ice . i'm sure they are modest enough not to have acctually shouted there claims from the rooftops, but if you make a claim it needs hard backup, i hold the record for the fastest accelerating A seies mini, and i have hard backup proof, ,lol. i own the quickest turbo mini in the world and i can prove it, lol it madce 220 hp on Emeralds rollers, and i can prove it , it has recently acheived a 120mph plus terminal on the drag strip, and i can prove it, something no other front wheel mini has ever acheived no matter what engine type is used, it is also painted Almond Green , and i can prove it, it would be good if you could get them to show us dyno results along with results of other cars to reference to, carl Edited by fastcarl on 12th Sep, 2008. |

Facts are much more useful when sorting truth from bullshit some strong words there, lets be fair 205 brake is a huge amount of power for a N/A A series even KAD with all there experience iirc did not get these figures, on top of that all RR are different and results depend on to many different factors it does sound like a interesting project however Edited by wolfie on 12th Sep, 2008.

TD is right in respect of rod length/stroke ratios - stock A series running at 9000rpm have piston speeds in excess of curent F1 engines - truth not bullshit! The only way round it is big bore tiny stroke - like modern motorbikes. The Hayabusa will turn 180 bhp from its 1300cc at 11000+ rpm when tweaked its the only way to make the power
If Carling made Mini engines

Turbocox - don't take any offense by what people are saying - people get passionate about numbers! I think it' s an interesting thread and very impressed if they have generated the ponies at that level!

yeah, TC - we weren't having a go at you - if you take a look around you'll like the place I'm sure. The thing is (as you have realised) there are folks here who've done enough, and engineers to question the maths, to simply suggest that the figures are optimistically / unachievable... This is worth more than some other forums where folks will simply bend over and kiss whoever makes a claim of outlandish HP.

I see the limiting factor of the K heads being the valves. These heads are comparable with the small valve KAD heads, but the all out race engines KAD build use the bigger valves and get the big numbers on the dyno.
