Ive just picked up my Part Built Indy which has been stood for a good year
and anyway plastered all over the 919 engine is HOB Motorsport.. with a few engraved codes on the cylinder head
The chap was a keen biker and told me the engine has been tuned to the extent he was scared of hitting the limiter
well anyway just out interest I phoned HOB to see what extent they tune and what the codes meant.
they asked for the chaps name and the code on the engine....
ill be back in a minute he said
holy mary he came back on the phone and said - that blade left Hob with 171bhp at the crank
he also had a long read off of mods
Blumin Heck I take RR figures with a pinch of salt and please this is by no means "PROOF"
but Im still happy wooohooooooO!!!!!!!
how much would all that have cost!?
sweet -should be awesome!!!
Very nice. My R1 engine was recently tuned to 152 RW BHP (usual dyno caveats apply) which probably means 170ish at the flywheel. It goes a whole lot quicker now it's been done, So much so that at 9000 ish, the rev counter looks like I'm doing wheel spins. It sounds like you've found a very nice engine.
I was reading your post colin sounded good
