Hi Jak,
Count me in. 70 bug with 2387cc. Thanks, Keith.
Jak pretty sure i will be there and possible bring Boris DRAG car along if i can get trailer n driver
yeah i'll be there
63' 1600 SP
Jon
I should be there
Audi A3 1.8 Turbo
how much is it?:bounce
U should have told me u were going to be up this way Barry, I'm only 15 minutes away from where u were staying.
Keith, the 2387 sounds like a ball tearer!! can't wait to see it run!
Dave, it would be awesome to see Boris's car on the Dyno, Richard has told me some pretty awesome stories regarding that car.
Will be good to have u there Jon.
XXX1.8t, (sorry don't know your name) it's $50 & if we have over 20 cars it's $45, it would be really interesting to see the what the Audi could put out.
regards
Jak
Cool I would love to take part in a Dyno day, no one does them over here tho, maybe something to look into!
Jak what type or car and what are the specs of Joes 2800cc it sounds monsterous!!
Rob.
It would be interesting to put the Dog-O-War on one and see what I lose from a 1300tp with big 31 inch tires rolling behind. :o
Bronze.
Rathmines, Lake Macquarie, NSW.
The 2800cc is a type 4 motor built by Richard Holzl at V-Force. It sounds like a V8 just idleing!!!

Is this a street driven car???
Sounds very interesting are there any pics anywhere?
Rob.
Jak,
Only running some small 40 x 36 valve small port heads, with a mild cam. trying to make a torquey street engine. 86 x 94, short rods etc. well see on the dyno day. cheers, keith.
Sounds good.
Oettinger claim 143kw with the chip,
10kw with turbo back exhaust, and maybe couple more kw's with the cold air intake hopefully i get 155kw - 158kw as they claim
that 2800 sounds like a monster is it a VW engine?
BTW im Costa :thumb😎🙂😀

Keith, u don't want to lend me that motor to scare some Porsches this year do u? they wouldn't know what hit them if I turned up with that in the back of my beetle. Makes my 1880cc look pretty whimpy! LOL! Did have to take any meat out of the cam to get the 86mm crank in? I've heard that someties it's necessary.
Costa, it will be interesting to compare your modern machinery against our little lawnmower engines, & yes the type4 2.8l is in a street car, u will see it on the day, nice car, 4 wheel disks, aero guards, 16 inch wheels etc etc.
Apparently nothing on the street has come near it yet!
Jak
Count me in Jak, What car should I take? Ive got a 97 VR6 or the ball tearin' 1500sp 69 Kombi.
Hutcho.
I love to be there but dring down from Darwin is a little far. would be interested to see how the ej20t would go.
Reub
Have a great dyno day guys.
Che, take it easy with that 1600 SP. Use half throttle and give the others a chance mate.😀😀
Bring the VR6 Hutcho, I think that Seb mentioned that he may bring his as well so u could have a comparison.
regards
Jak
lol grey 57, i'll only go half throttle because i cant afford to buy them a new dyno 😀
yeah joe's 2.8L type 4 is originally an engine richard built for his tube frame & beetle bodied circuit racer. Estimated 200+ HP at the flywheel. It breaks traction going uphill up to 3rd gear. It'll break traction when u floor it at about 2000RPM on the highway.
joe had to make some induction plumbing because the induction noise from his dells made it sound like a harley!
to put it short
.. its a beast.
Jon
Damn this wet miserable country, I wanna go to a sunny Dyno day 🙁
Someone pay for me to visit :thumb
Rob.
That 2800 sound like an animal!
hopefully i get around 110kw-120kw at the flywheel.
As for my modern machinery I like the old engines as they are much less complicated. With my engine there is too much electronics involved where if a sensor is dirty or not plugged in properly the car wont run at full boost etc, etc.
Should be a good day hopefully someone takes some pics of all these hot dubs and my Audi😎
Yeh I'll bring my digital camera & post everyones results & pics here on the forum.
Jak
cool:thumb

Jak
That will be good
🙂 So i can pretend i am there lol
should be a fun day! nice to see everyone in person too!
I quite like modern h20 german cars like audis and golfs, so much nicer than hondas with 19" chrome wheels and spoilers 😀
Jon
I dont think the wasser will be in in time for it 🙁 probably a bit rude to take my statesman to a VW day 😉
If it aint broke,
Make it go faster!!
Yeh Jon. the little pic of Costas Audi that I can see looks very cool!
Jak
Congratulations to Ben Durie for breaking the hillclimb record at Ringwood in his stroker beetle!
Thanx guys im touched :kiss
if u want i got more pics😎
I cant get enough of pics of aircooled dubs:bounce
