1200 rally car, of course i will keep playing with the thing for experimentation sake. thats how i pulled a V8 beater out of a 3 litre n/a V6 in the first place.
And i did not test the acceleration by a mate with a stopwatch, of course times would not be that consistent if i did that. but i did have a mate making contact with jump leads when i blew it up on the weekend.
btw the device runs straight out of battery not alternator, thats why i had it drawing 80 amp with an old battery down on voltage a bit. But i know it cant really handle 120amp like they claim because i replaced the 50 amp fuses and holders with big dyna-links with 60 amp fuses to do the 24V test.
this was done with another battery outside the car, a jumper lead between, and holding revs at 5000 steady and then making contact with 24V. The idea is the revs should have rise a bit under any boost, but that didnt happen.

and its only meant to run for 15 secs, so battery can recharge.

anyway i burnt out the motors in under 15 secs, so thats the end of that, it didnt blow the two 60 amp fuses i put in so i know its bullshit that it draws 120 amp.

fair enuf u built a TT for 1200$, well done, but u cant do that on a modern efi car, just the injectors or turbo or IC or the ECU all cost about that much EACH even if plumbing, wiring and evrything else done youirself.

Why couldnt you do an inexpensive turbo mod to a modern car? Or even a Magna.
If I had a magne (errr shudder) I would put a stage 2 NOS kit on the thing and do some destructive testing on it. And surely the auto would be able to handle 20 more kw...if not they are worse than I thought!

yes, some popular cars can be turbo'd without changing the ECU, e.g. Ford. Just get bigger induction and injector ...

guys adding NOS is not turbocharging.
and i didnt say the trans cant handle an extra 20 kw over stock. It already handling an extra 50 kw (about an A series worth) It just cant quite handle 2 extra A series worth of power taking it over 220Kw well into the bang zone!
