Well, what were the results?

 

[TRMark]

Yea, what he say.

Show us the dyno and then don't deliver the goods...

WHAT A TEASE

I think Chris said once he was pushing 160HP.

 

[racingenglishcars]

Cool!

 

[MadMarx]

I went in with 158 HP and came out with 172 HP.
But the torque is more impressive.

Have a look:

 

[DNK]

Chris, Can you print that in English :laugh:

 

[MadMarx]

I can translate some words:

PS = HP
Leistung = Power
Drehmoment = Torque
Drehzahl = Revs

Our measurement is based on Newton and Watt

 

[Perrymip]

I could be pleased simply listening.

The engine and suspension work on that car this year did make the car 2nd in the championship with 5 points difference to the winning TR3.
224 to 219 points.

And not to forget....still road legal!

I bet that pulls like a mutha. I'd love to ride with you some day.

 

[PeterK]

You know, that might be my favorite video yet because you're driving on the street like I do. What a gorgeous sound.

Hi Peter,

I have two other daily driver vids:

Whatever happens, don't let Tabcon see this video....

Whatever happens, don't let Tabcon see this video....

Why?

 

[PeterK]

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the videos. Not quite the excitement of the Nurburgring but looks like fun over 3k on the street. Nice morning drive after a rain, makes it a little slippery, eh?

brgds,
Peter

Deep water with semi slick tires.....you are boating than driving.

Oh does that sound AMAZING!! :laugh: LOVE the "song" of those straight cut gears!!!

Looks good, but those numbers have to be flywheel horsepower. To get a 170+ whp, you're looking at a power peak close to, or greater than 7000rpm.

Torque numbers look great.
