possibly the biggest turbo

[TEREX]

went to a meet today with a local club and this has to be the biggest turbo i ever seen on a cosworth, its no wonder the car owes him over 100k

and in the first picture that is an I-phone on the inlet pipe to give you an idea of size

[Kelv]

youve got to say what size turbo it is, and the claimed power figure!!

actually, is that a white Saph

[TEREX]

your spot on its a white saff it is rob tarys from my home town, first time i seen it out as its usually being re-built lol, its 800bhp and the worlds fastest at 206mph, it sees 100mph in a shade over 6 seconds

[escosgaz]

my favorite saff of all time few vids on youtube mark shead driving it, of it but i dont know how to upload links.

100k if thats over the years maybe but not as it sits surely to god !

Either way its shocking Jim

[SCS j1mbo]

aye it is but to be honest the car as it sits right there isnt 100k worth surely to god

be good if rod comes on and shuts me up but suuuurely it cant be

[Kelv]

Probably 100k over time, and I can believe it is easy to do with that level of project.

Mine has cost me over 50k in the past 5 years it's been off the road

[SCS j1mbo]

ah yes overtime totally, the amount of engines from i guess 4-800hp !

Jesus that is a big turbo you would have time to eat your dinner before that would spool up

That will be what Rod has spent this includes buying the car a 400hp engine a 500hp engine a 600hp engine a 800hp engine, all the mods beam/diff/gearbox/clutchs/fuel system/nos/all the intercooler upgrades/breather system/brakes/about 4 sets of wheels/suspension/gauges/cage/ecu/inlets/exhausts/turbos and there will be many more parts in that so 100k aint a bad price.

Full boost is around 4600rpm so not bad I have seen T4's with more lag.

If I and Rod was paid to remake one inc the labour I am sure we would spend more than that.

you got to appreciate the time and effort that has gone into building such a machine, the thing that surprises me the most is just how it dont blow the head off on boost, gees there must be some pressure to keep in there on full chat
