i gotta say, i was not impressed with rickshaw's dyno video/numbers, but i didn't see much info on his setup, just that he was using an IWG 8374

I just got back from Philip Island GP circuit (3 hours ago) and its not his dyno problem, its a Ric Shaw problem?, his cars are gutless! Today was his turbo RX8 and it had rings run around it by a rival FD3S (this was a one 'hour endurance' race).

Nice enough bloke, but the car is weak on power in reality out on the track, very weak. So you have every right be left un impressed, on track the case is even worse, that was the reality I witnessed today. There was also a similar FD (looked like a road car!) running in sports sedans (top class) and it had on visual point to point analysis about 100bhp more than RIc Shaw runs as he sets up his car.

p.s. both of these other FD's ran with T04Z on 1.15 housings, and the one in the sports car enduro was running E50 blend *I spoke personally with the car preparer UNIgroup engineering* (to get the milage for the cumpulsary driver change and fuel stop)... he won his class and even beat a lambo gelato, went all weekend like a trojan!

fast and powerful and durable.... it can be done
