Excellent! we tested it(with the wing mount air intake) back to back with an APS DR725 and APS wing mount and the HF made 457HP against 452HP for the APS. This was on the last standard 2.0 we had running big power

nice, i had originally looked at the aps, but got told some rediculous amount of time to get it here from australia, so went for the hyperflow instead.
it will be running with a 2 litre bottom end as well, although it has been 'built', but only the rods where changed, for piece of mind.

i take it your tuning the car as far as you can take it? or do you feel it will be safe and reliable?

those sort of figures would be fantastic, but i dont think my driving style etc would allow the engine to last very long.

what clutch did you go for out of curiousity?

I found it very good! Also had some additional lightening done on the flywheel!

It’s still in good shape after 1 year of abuse and will be sticking it back in my race car once we start to assemble it

Impressive stuff, what sort of boost did it run to make that power?

What's the power at the wheels? More than 370?

Sorry dude...missed that post

At the moment its full time but is still under development(we only spent 3 hours mappng with it for the first time on friday)

Depends what your definition of 'Full on anti-lag' is?

We are running it mild at the moment but can be made to run harder!

Sounds very interesting.

My definition would be (crackles - seems to have that), pops & bangs too.

So you think you will be able to make it switchable?
- If so, i think your phone will be hotter than the bat phone. With me at the front of the queue.

Also, out of interest, what is the spool characteristics on this kind of setup?

Rotated

Aarons was a 1 off 3" turbo back system running a twisted uppipe, but if demand is high enough we are going to have a batch made with the option of going upto 3.5" on the turbo back

So full on anti lag it is then

We are pretty confident we can work something out

1 bar of boost by 4300rpm

Great effort boys.

I had the honour of Aaron taking me out (not a real date mind) in the car and treating me to its potential (Safely too) with it's noise. What a car!!

The thing that most people do not know. Aaron who is a top fella uses his car as a daily drive. Not many people I know that do that?

Shame I missed her on the rollers boys. I was busy changing nappies etc.

Keep up the good work.

Steve

It does whatever the track needs. Unless we were on an airfield when are we going to sustain a top speed. The car was flat out in 5th at some points so it was getting quite a hammering
