harryjackson Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 That 608whp looks mental, mental fun!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodyboarder81 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Although that does look like a right laugh ...... What's would be funnier is a standard zed being able to beat him off the line due to his serious traction issues . 605 @ the wheels .... That's like 660 fly . I reckon 550 fly would be the sweet spot . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I run 666 hp at the hubs with the 350 and the car is a pussy cat and very drivable on the open road, however once you unleash it on track it is a completely different animal and great fun. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodyboarder81 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 No doubt it is good fun !!! But in your opinion on the road could you use all 666 bhp in all gears ? I would have thought from a standing start it would be impossible to get traction until 3rd? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't get traction until 5th Seriously, on the road WOT is not required to appreciate the power, and traction is not a problem if driven sensibly.

Bodyboarder81 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 So pointless for a road going car then Although I would still love to have 666 in my zed !!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 So pointless for a road going car then Why ? Plenty big power "super cars" on the road that never see track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodyboarder81 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Because these supercars are designed to handle their given power in all gears ( not to say you can't overwhelm them though) a zed on the other hand isn't designed for 660bhp! But I get there's arguments for and against and as you said I would rather have more power and use less of it , rather than not have enough . There must come a point though that any more bhp in a zed , on the road is pointless? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodyboarder81 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) Off topic ..... On track Alex what's quicker your zed or gtr ? And which is more fun on track and road? Edited August 29, 2015 by Bodyboarder81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT350 Posted August 29, 2015 Author Share Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) Well I plan on getting the longer final drive plus racelogic traction/launch control which is very advanced (used on rally cars for gravel launches as well as tarmac etc) much more advanced than the majority of manufacturer's TC. You can set gravel/wet/dry Tarmac/gravel/snow etc. The amount of slip you want, IE 10% - 90% to off. The 3.3 final drive does a good job of reigning in the traction issues too (based on Google and forum searches) Anyway. If you all don't like it or see the point you won't be wanting a go then will you? Lol. Edited August 29, 2015 by TT350 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Off topic ..... On track Alex what's quicker your zed or gtr ? And which is more fun on track and road? Difficult to answer that one, however the 350 is more fun, but after a hard 2 hour open pit with the 350 you are knackered as the GTR is more refined and trick, and with the paddles and twin clutch, gear changes are extremely rapid and precise which probably just gives it the edge on lap times around Knockhill but only by a few hundreds of a second. However, the 350 is in the shop at the moment with the diff, gearbox, and all four suspension corners dropped so I expect the 350 may edge it next week.

Snjur Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) I got the chance to be driven in 350z Greddy TT with 550 whp and 350z roadster running Boosted performance single turbo kit around 650. TT was on Up rev and Vems boost control while ST was on Haltech. They are worlds apart. TT setup has a load of grunt from bottom end and is really a wild one running street tires. Yesterday i got ride in ST roadster on Toyo R888 and Quaife lsd. Car is delivering power insanely. Impression was like im in NA car on steroids. Car is pulling from 2800 rpm and power deliver is so smooth, no wild turbo punch like on TT application plus upper end is more stronger than on TT. I was really impressed how 650 hp and 800 Nm of torque can be so well usable. Definitely confirmed my way of Twin Scroll single turbine Edited August 29, 2015 by Snjur 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snjur Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) Well to be honest after TT ride i kinda wanted to avoid single turbo ride. I was thinking it will be same as you described and i already had bit scared of TT experience so i was looking it will be brutal ride. Well it was completely opposite. Car is runned by Haltech and it is tuned so fine i couldn't believe that so much torque and power can be delivered to tarmac without traction problems. I really cant wait mine build plus I also went with Jwt cams to use full potential of Precision 6266 turbo and upper end Edited August 29, 2015 by Snjur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the info I could find about the PE1420 says flow rate of up to 350 hp each. They do a larger turbo to go on the kit however. I'm not sure what other brand options would fit the manifold etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who tuned that? Do cams add much to a turbo install with regards to how the car behaves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
