where can i find cost info for your products??? carbon fiber aero, roll cage...thanks

Quote: Ok, I'll go first:



Carbon Fibre Aero - (CAD designed and Wind Tunnel Optimised) - Autoclaved - the front and rear spoilers are optimised to balance (front aero works a treat!)

Rear Carbon Diffuser (flat floor) - requires rear Cup S conversion.

Carbon roof (now available and fitted (not in this image)).

4Way Suspension System - (tranforms the car) - much more complient than OE system and the front end is now what it shoud be. We found 2.5s at Estoril (Spain) with cup car with this system.

Sequential - (ask Luis who posts on here)

Alloy Race Rads (+ cup grills)

380mm Oakley Design by Brembo brakes (on this car) Also have 400mm carbon ceramics using an 8pot light weight CNC caliper and multipad (Front) and 380mm carbon ceramic with 6pot caliper and multipad (Rear) - currently fitted to Oakley 997 GT2 (awesome is not the word).

Titanium 'Supercup' Exhaust system (removes 25+ kgs) with RSR pipes finish (Cup S rear style conversion available).

Carbon Wheel (you guys know all about these)

Carbon Rear Roll Bar (cage on the way...)

Carbon Seats (2.5 kgs each!)

and more...

Quote: Guys we are going nuts over a lousy 10 bhp. I do believe that a 15% loss of 460 = 391 but no need to sweat it.
I will post the dyno graphs later to day. Currently in the office and can not do it.

Cheers,
Ranger
Yes, a 15% loss from 460 is 391, but a 15% gain from 391 is 449. To calculate crank hp from whp utilizing a 15% loss you need to divide by 0.85, not multiply by 1.15.

So I think Ranger is right on this one, but please correct me if I'm wrong.

Steven was a former State Math Champ back in his hometown. Don't let him fool ya.

It is a common mistake actually.

Hahaha, I did make it to State, but I was never the champ. I do have my Bachelor's in Applied Mathematics, though.

Guys as I said before, lets not sweat 10 bhp but rather pursue interests in making more hp from our GT3/RS cars.

Cheers,

Ranger

Suncoast Steve and GT3 Ranger-

This is like beating a dead GT3, but you're wrong. Again, in reality, the loss is from the crank. So, what you are measuring at the wheels is a percentage of the engine output (=100% for the purposes of this discussion).

But who cares?
