Re: 2014 SCCA Runoffs and Specialty test
What Rob, posted, thanks Rob. The KA's make around 300+ at this point, that's all I'm aloud to divulge. With out a restrictor, they would be up in the 350 range.
I know in my car, turbo and all, that with my "small" carb back on, I have lost serious top end Hp. My stock Weber secondary is 36MM and my modified one was 40+mm, so with no other changes, my overall HP is way down, due to the RESTRICTOR....the carb size..
It's all about air flow, which is why we port heads, more cam, bigger exhaust, as to increase air flow and hence peak cylinder filling, for more power.
