Today i try for the first time, my 4x4 coupè.
new engine, 1.1 -1.4 boost, limitator at 7000rpm, IAW (no lanch, no bang), stock tyres (bridgestone s02), 98 octane fuel.

400m 11.431 @ 201.12 kmh
200m 7.443 @ 157 kmh
60 feet in 1.749

I try to arrive at 11" sec .....without nos..
very happy

very impressive time Alot of hard work to build the car no doubt

I have had a look it the hall of fame but the specs seem a bit old, Can you give us a full list of specs

thanks

For a time like that you must have at least close to 500bhp and maybe more. Must have been a pretty savage launch too.

Specs and footage would be great!

Excellent

Very impressive results, time comes from 4x4, but the end speed shows that you have power .

Can you give some specs of the "new engine" , I guess it is no even close to that you have explained in other thread.

Anyway conratulations of new Coupe record!!

- Jari -

Thanks.
In this moment at 1.4 boost and 1.1 i think to have about 400bhp. at 0.8 i did 12.065 at 185 kmh.
When preassure will arrive at 1.5 full i hope to do about 10.8-10.9 WITHOUT nos. I think to have about 500hp at 1.6-1.7.
In italy best time of coupè 4x4 is of my friend castigator (648.5 bhp + nos)
1/8 7,001s 189.9 km/h
1/4 10.124s 248.6 km/h
specs of my coupe at soon as possible....from my friend Mark20vTURBO

a coupe in the 10s with 650bhp, any details on this car? Congrats on your time also, very impressive!

Very nice to see times and power like that.

Sorry for quality.
my car is yellow in left part of display.
The red car is a 12.4sec Lancia delta

Great to see video's any way to increase the quality?

Is that a GRP bonnet i spy

P.S very impressive, cant imagine it was easy to get it to do that kinda 1/4

very impressive i must say

Marco very impressive results. Got a few questions.
First, what 4*4 parts did you use? and
2nd, How much for the conversion?

1. Alfa 155 Q4

2. Depends on what you fit / upgrade at the same time, but he is in Italy if you want a drive over there

What was he racing?

another record
400m: 11.363 sec @ 202.25 kmh

video in high quality of first tests when i did my first record of 11.4sec @ 201 kmh in the last test (12.2 and 12sec the others)

Nice video marco! When are you going to paint the bonnet?

Fantastic time and good to see the power of the 4x4 From the video it looks like you have totally stripped out the interior with a lightweight seat... even the door cards look like they have gone! Any ideas on how much weight you have managed to lose?

Awesome sounding engine when you hit the starter button

^^As above, nice one!

She sounds pretty

It might sound pretty but it sure as hell don't look pretty. What have you done to your headlights man ?

Nutters

to freddan72:

next 12-13 may i will be in France at Lanas to race.

can i change title of post with new record (11.363 instead of 11.431)????
i don't know what i have to do to change it...

Marco, go to your first post and click edit, then you can edit the title from there

btw, you showed that Integrale well and good

Joe

i have edited already

thanks, and I'll link to the first post to keep him happy

joe

Marco,

What alloys have you got on there ? Does anybody else have them ? Very rarely do I see a non-standard wheel that I like.

wheels are BOOS CIANURO 7X16 4X98 ET35
i like it but i'll change them when i'll use TOYO R888 225/45R16...i need 7.5x16 and i will use other wheels i buy some week ago ( i'll print them in white):
http://i17.tinypic.com/43fdwn9.jpg

Thanks Marco. I assume that picture was of the new wheels. Could you post a nice close-up picture of the BOOS wheels please.

1 bar...no boost.
race of last week in France (Lanas-aubenas)
time done: 11.6 @ 191 kmh.

yesterday i did another race in Rivanazzano airport (pavia italy) and i win my category (12.044 in final)
Asphalt was perfect. Best time in 18ft was 1.678 with athors 1.6 and a lot of low 1.7.
at 0.8 bar best time was 12.2 @ 186 kmh.
At 1 bar best time was 11.590 @ 193.55 kmh
I try to start at 0.8 bar in first speed and 1.5 in 2-3-4 speed. No a beautiful start (1.790sec in 60ft, 7.466 in 200m and 11.379 @ 206 kmh at 1/4mile).
In this momenti i have limitator at 7000 rpm but we can change it to 8000 rpm.
10's is near :-)

this weekend i will race at Santamonica circuit (misanoa driatico 1/8 mile)..i hope to try coupè at 1.5 bar to do about 7 second if there will be time....

Damn, the car just flies away
Did your friend hurt his neck when you accelerated?

all ok for my friend he was very happy to stay in car

two new records for me this weekend
60ft in 1.608
1/8m in 7.285 sec @ 160.71 kmh
All at 1 bar. I didn't try at 1.5.....
In race I had to declare a time of 7.49 (for my category it is the smaller time possible) but the coupè went too much fast (all time down 7.49....7.3 about)
In semifinal i lose because i was too fast....I do 7.306 with brake at end of strip and speed was 132 kmh.
If i didn't brake i think time was 7.1 @ 160-170kmh
Next race i will have mectronik, rollbar, new exaust and maybe NOS to do all possible record.

Marco - what ecu do you have as I thought the factory ecu cuts the motor at 1.5bar or more?

in this moment i have stock ecu IAW and i didn't try to go over 1.5 from second speed....i did 7.285 at 1.2 bar.
next weeks we will change ecu with a Mectronik.
i have gray aps05

new exaust:
http://i10.tinypic.com/4uwzwut.jpg
http://i16.tinypic.com/6629h09.jpg

Nice exhaust! Do you have more pics of the 4x4 system??
What did you have to modify to install the 4x4 system?
Is the Alfa gearbox a straight swap?

haha that exhaust is evil!!! i wanna see that car go down the strip!

The acceleration looks amazing!

Coupe_intergrale is currently building a 4wd drive. Had the pleasure of seeing it the south wales meet

Do you mean auto integrale?

No, look for the user coupe_integrale, he is running a dedra setup (inc the 8v turbo engine)

that was well trick, i had to rub my eyes to belive it

Do you fancy coming to the UK for TOTB next year? Any chance we could sneak your coupe into the FWD class?

I run sometimes with 1.5+ bar with no problems, is this for a 16vt or 20vt? Has anyone else heard of this cutoff? (Perhaps is removed by custome mapping??)

This is 16Vt only as it has the MAP senor not AFM like the 20VT, the MAP sensor is a 2.5bar absolute max pressure, so 1.5bar real world

a new video of last race
http://video.google.it/videoplay?docid=-...earch&plindex=3

i did red light (0.485 instead of 0.500...so i started 0.015 sec before green light). Time 7.513 at 159.27 kmh....60ft 1.77 (best time of weekend in 60 ft 1.608, 7.285 @ 160.71)

a video with new exaust
http://video.google.it/videoplay?docid=-7423348419134673109&hl=it

this evening i'll take two videos

sounds good, what is the spec of the exhaust?

Also can tell me what turbo you are running again and do you have the aftermarket ECU now?

Hi Saint.
i think downpipe is 70mm but second part to the end is smaller (65 or 60 or 55)
my turbo is T3/60-1 yet by full-race. It's Garrett.
I have Iaw Ecu yet. My tuner buy DYNO and he have to built it. We'll test coupè first with IAW and then with Mektronik ...i think at end of August,first September.

very interesting!

looking into getting an exhaust fabricated for my coupe, been trying to work out how much clearance i can get around the rear dif as its currently quite prone to scraping (home made lancia/fiat hybrid bodge)

did your previous exhaust exit out the rear of the car? if so, do you have any pictures?

cheers
james

first exhaust in coupè 4x4 didn't exist. i had a small exhaust after downpipe that it finished near front right wheel.

ah, thats cheating!

will hopefully get something put together next week, fingers crossed.

8 videos of last two race.

dyno results of this morning:
with iaw
0.7 bar >>> 298cv

1.3-1.4 bar >>>> 400
http://video.google.it/videoplay?docid=-6015774410132678361&hl=i

news as soon as possibile

with mectronik i think to know results before Saturday

wow, awsome one, interior is just brutal! hood is ok IMO, except that metal things for opening. btw one russian tuning company have made a 600hp+ Lancia Integrale (same engine as you know) for drag racing, I could translate their article if someone is interested in

last weekend i had a lot of problem with new wheels and tyres but i did a new record.

at 1.3 bar
11.233 @ 197.9 kmh
at 1.5 bar
11.167 @ 204 kmh.

At 1.5 bar start is too difficult and i did 60ft and 1/8 mile in the same time of at 1.3 bar...about 7.2 sec
I did all with IAW (no mectronik) and without NOS.
Maybe i'll try with them (mectronik+nos) next race on 14 october.
Please change name of post....thanks....
Bye

new record in 1/8
7.116 @ 164kmh
Clutch finished at the end of the day.
