This represents some of the work of Extreme Tuners in Athens, Greece, and the name is no joke. Pushing limits requires funds and skill, and these guys have both. All they do is build and tune engines. The entire lengthy discussion can be found here (http://forums.evolutionm.net/evo-dyn...ne-2007-a.html), but unless you feel like reading quite a few pages of posts, I'll post the highlights here.

FWIW, this is some of what they've done:

2006 - N/A ford cosworth 4cylinder 16v engine 119cui: 416hp -11,900rpms
2007 - Ford cosworth 4cylinder 16v Turbo engine 120cui: 1280hp 47psi (custom triple ball bearing 80mm turbo 119lbs/min)
2007 – Mitsubishi Evo 8 4g63 4cylinder 16v Turbo engine: 1416hp – 57psi (custom quad ball bearing 82mm turbo 132lbs/min)

So, getting 700whp/L from 2.0L @ 8500rpm is no small feat, but what do you need if you get bored and want to shoot for 2000whp?


Cast Garrett compressor wheels (right) tend to come apart above 50 psi. CNC billet aluminum wheels (middle) are stronger, but why not be different and use your own CNC billet titanium (left) compressor?



You'll need a turbo big enough for the job, which in this case is a 108mm twinscroll T4 turbo, with custom quad ball bearing CHRA and 100psi capability.






To get enough airflow at 12,000rpm(!) to get the job done, you'll need a skillfully ported head, complete with titanium valves and copper-beryllium valve seats:






And you're going to need a set of camshafts to handle the rpm and withstand tremendous ramp pressures, so why not a set of hollow titanium billets with DLC at only 234 grams each?






And since there is no aftermarket rod up to the task, just ask for a set of billet mmcs-titanium connecting rods at 286g each. Rod/Stroke ratio is 2.07:




For pistons, a set of custom beryllium pistons with DLC fits the bill, and since methanol is the fuel, 13:1 SCR is fine:





A strong piston pin is needed as well:



Toss in a custom titanium billet crank:



A set of 9000cc/min injectors:



And since a factory 4G63 block probably wouldn't hold up, just CNC machine your own from billet aluminum:





No head gasket is used:



And to put all that power to the gearbox, one needs a suitable multiplate clutch:



Yes, it is smaller than a cam gear:





An example of very efficient turbo manifold design from one of their recent projects:





And last but not least, a dynosheet from this car, running 'only' 48psi and hydraulic cams:

 

I need to change my underwear. brb.

 

But can I drive it in traffic or just the mountains?

 

Saw this on a few other forums, and I recommend the 27 (it was 27 when I last read it) pages on the original forum is worthwhile. Spyros is a fantastic engineer that knows his stuff, and with his f1 parts connections he's bringing unbelievable parts and performance to the scene. Of course, that engine build has an unlimited budget so it's not for everyone...and he doesn't mess with the rest of the car's aspects as that's not his specialty, making it difficult to compare his work to other shops that produce drag-spec racers or other racing cars. I'd love to spend a month at his shop and just absorb the technologies he's incorporating into those cars.

 

So what is the $/hp??

 

wow, all those custom parts. I mean anybody can do a custom turbo, rods, pistons... but thats a whole new level to do a complete block.

 

That is absolutely incredible. Damn, a whole new level indeed.

 

5 - axis CNC isn't messing around!

 

God almighty

 

Holy shit
