I dont think that that amount of power is unreasonable out of a 1.7 really.
its more the question of how long will it last.
I just hope everyone, Andrea included a good tune is more than the numbers your car makes.
We cant help him unless it he wants us to. I am sure he will get it covered you know.
Myles car blew up on a M45 and he and I know both full well it had nothing to do with the Rotrex. LUL

Colin -
I did not say that 535 + whp from a 1.7 liter engine was unreasonable, BMW made 1300 Hp from a 1.5 liter F1 motor - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfWTBNx1-kE
But everything has to be right, like sleeves staying in place.

^ yeah I see were on the same page.
Like i said Im not worried about it, its his project.
He can do what he wants.
long as my car keeps running, its all good.
i just wish we could get the Ecu connected and the wideband in....
my fuel mileage is horrid.

I am just waiting to see who he blames this time for this engine lasting less than one season...
Given his track record it wont be long now...
Currently being monitored by the NSA.

Wow, I guess I missed smth.
Andrea was banned?!
Indeed my c30 died but it was my fault, I overspin it by 30k rpm and than jumped on brake pedal. I still like rotrex because I get home from the race I won that day and it was 40 hours trip with blown compressor.
It's now c38 time. Still tuning :-)))
p.s. Can't get exact crank pulley diameter. I've found numbers from 134 to 139 for stock pulley. Let me know please if someone actually measured it?
