So I've trawled through Begbies photobucket account and can't find any hint, looked on the Hall of Fame and no-one matches those figures. Looked on the evo forum just incase you'd posted up a link there  I'd guess that you've finished your engine and your doing some 'running in' - so 0.8? Oh and I haven't got a clue how you would work it out either. Chris

Ok last guess. Is it Mavric (from near Chester) or Taz running in a newly rebuilt 2.4 on tiny boost - like 0.6 bar?

Id say a lot lower more like 0.6 or less as there is no real boost spike there and knowing what you have done to the engine maybe even the wastegate is strapped open??

Also the low torque and headline BHP and smooth curve with no BIG blip show hardly any boost.

Got to give it to H2ypr really, it is a chap on the integrale forum, who's aim was to run 300bhp on 1bar of boost, instead he is running 322bhp @ 0.95 bar of boost. The only spec he is giving is : OE bottom end, balanced carefully. higher lift cams (11.x lift)ported head and inlet manifold RT manifold and exhaust (RT manifold costs about 2k)Semi roller bearing turbo chargecooler system Motec 1000cc injectors The bits in bold are additional comments later in the thread he posted or stuff i have remembered from the past. So what is the point of this thread? Just goes to show a well spec'd engine / parts can give you a better increase in power / more reliable engine than just upping the boost

Surely the first thing he will do is turn the boost up as high as it will go ?

Why run 1000cc injectors if you aren't going to turn that up to 2bar, even then it's overkill?!! same question goes with me...everything else is understandable, but 4x1000 cc injectors?

Poor chap, rebuilding an engine and than put in OE pistons... Power is impressive tough.
what is an RT manifold?
He must have a different spring setup too if he's running cams with 11.Xmm lift
Begbie you are absolutely right. A good designed engine will be more efficient and reliable. We rebuild an alfa 33 1.7 16V boxer engine (N/A) to deliver 195hp and 200Nm of torque (on drla40 carburettors). That was impressive too!
What i still don't get is why that the parts remain so expensive for the integrale/delta. There seems to be a lot of interest and mondial sold loads of abarth pistons for the integrale back then. Lampredi engines are around like forever!
For example you could rebuild a chevy/mustang small block for 1/3 of the price. All performance parts are available.

Wow that is impressive. Suba's results from his 0.9 bar show 310bhp aswell.
Only reason i said 0.9 is because i thought he'd be running a 1 bar actuator which doesnt really deliver a full 1 bar as base boost. Well done to him i say.

Dink - the RT manifold is from a company here called Racing Technologies where they make very nice items at a very expensive price, but they get customers with bottomless pockets to do the work. Someone did ask a few questions and are below: "Noticed that the maximum power (you mentioned) is already reached at 0,95 bar. Was there a higher design goal (like higher engine or bearing life or fuel consumption)? "
The goal was 300bhp at 1bar. I will however up the torque significantly by upping the boost to 1.3 bar which should give around 340 ft lb of torque but I will not let it run at that level all the way up the rev range as the OE pistons can not take it at higher rpm.
"What i wondered about was: which cams (higher lift doesn't mean much), which turbo specs (T3 with roller bearings, which A/R or a more modern GT-RS?)"
The cams and turbo are my trade secrets but the lift is over 11.5 mm and duration is long. I manufacture and sell them through Keith at AI if you want to buy them. Just ask him for the 'lunatic version' which does require deeper piston pockets. I do a more mild version that uses OE piston pockets.
"And why a MoTec ECU if "only" 300 BHP is the goal? Or are you going to develop it further?"
Motec gives mapping flexibility and that is what I want. I am forever improving onthe map onthe road and like the flexibility of the ecu.
"Why 1000 cc injectors when 500's could do? Future mods planned?"
Believe it or not running any sort of boost at high rpm necessitates huge injectors. While most people tail off the boost after 5500rpm I can run at full boost up to 7500rpm if I like.
"Guess you changed the exhaust too? Of course it isn't an engine spec but it says some about the power that can be developed. Is it std,2 1/2", 3"?"
3" bespoke system with 3 boxes for quietness but low restrictions.

em ... there are lots of 20VT people on here getting 300 BHP or close to it at 1bar or less: .... Suba , Me and I presume Kenno? The torque figure is impressive thou!
