dannylt Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I'm probably not doing any track days this year, and I can just about admit I already have more than enough power for road use  Ammo also has some other bits of mine if someone is interested - my old steel crank from the 2.5 engine, rods etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannylt Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 No, 226 is definitely not enough, even for road use 😬. Go on, this would probably get you to 300 on your current engine  Here's the data sheet Rotrex C30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mickrick Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 226? I'm sure AMMO would sell you some lower compression pistons to go with it. 😬 If all around you say it can't be done, all the more reason to do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannylt Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 The Honda K20A 2 litre doesn't need CR reducing to still make 300bhp, and it's hardly a low compression engine in the first place with 200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMMO Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 OK so while we are at it. Farndon eight counter balance Duratec 2.3 steel crank. Keyed with cam chain sprocket and pulley. Cost new £1,799.00 (plus cost of sprocket, pulley and machine work). Used price £995.00 complete.  Same again collected from me, payment to Danny. Ammo Raceco.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Plato Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 so does the K20 run std pistons @ 300hp ?   Taffia rear gunner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannylt Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Yup. It's a bolt-on no internal mods upgrade. It plays games with the variable cam timing to reduce the dynamic compression ratio though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickrick Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 But be carefull, big hp Duratecs are prone to cracking the block!

dannylt Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Woah! Very nice intake manifold though... I don't think anyone is talking of 500+ bhp here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickrick Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Well O.K. then, maybe tone it down a bit, to maybe 400! 😬 I'd be happy with 320.  If all around you say it can't be done, all the more reason to do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMMO Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 So where are the "just bolt on a supercharger for an easy 300 bhp" brigade when you need them? 😬 One more go before advertising it elsewhere. Ammo Raceco.com Edited to say that price is open to near offers. Edited by - AMMO on 12 Feb 2008 11:09:47 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiF Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I know I should not ask this, the wife will kill me but what would be involved with fitting it to my 2lt standard bodied Duratec 7?????? RiF Driving one of the first Duratec 7, and building CA07BON for Henrietta 😬 😬 😬.for pictures of 7 and carbon andCA07BON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irrelevant Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I know I should not ask this, the wife will kill me but what would be involved with fitting it to my 2lt standard bodied Duratec 7?????? You just bolt it on . . . Oh, and bolt the intercooler on, and the pipes for the SC coolant, and the SC rad, and the additional hoses you'll need. And then of course you need to beef up your plenum/induction so it will take 2 bar of boost (no point in playing about with a couple of pounds). Then you'll probably need bigger injectors, a 3 bar map sensor and a remap.  Oh, and that is assuming you don't need to lower your compression (which you will do if you're using anything more than a few pounds of boost). A nice set of turbo pistons will do. Then you'll want a new gearbox that can handle the torques.  Dead simple these 'bolt on' mods . .. what are you waiting for?  Edited by - AdamHay on 13 Feb 2008 14:46:33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Plato Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 and some new rods to go with the pistons  should be able to do 300bhp for £6K plus a gearbox me thinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiF Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 But I could buy it for my new build. Been 2 1/2 years since buying the chassis so far and it now has less on it than when I brought it Just not 100% decided on going Duratec yet but if I do, I would go supercharged. Decissions are so hard  RiF Driving one of the first Duratec 7, and building CA07BON for Henrietta 😬 😬 😬.for pictures of 7 and carbon andCA07BON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
