What is the easiest way to increase HP for a tr (not exhaust)

Dude, you can't come on to a forum, get called out them complain about it. You don't know the players.
Rifle doesn't mince words but I'll tell you about this guy. A Ferrari factory trained tech, owns his own shop and concours judge. He is well known throughout the Ferrari community and is sought after for his technical expertise and advice.

He freely gives his time to solve problems here and has saved me and others a lot of money....for what? Nothing. Yes, he's terse and you accept it for how he is. Because it's results that count and he means damn well. What have we done for him lately?

So, when he speaks, listen and learn something. He won't say it twice.

...and while it may sound like I'm kissing his a**, the guy has come through for me when I needed expert technical advice on my 91 Testarossa.

Stop for a second and listen. Don’t respond. Read more and think about what you read.

This is a great forum to learn. It’s not a place to try to demonstrate knowledge.

oh? steel pistons and then 8500 rpm?
you are dreaming

what please means N/A?
but the turbo power has nothing to do with the rpm to damage a connecting rod and then the block. when the turbo power is too much the rod will get bend but until now I never have seen a connecting rod torn off from a turbo charged engine with the normal max. rpm

 

N/A naturally aspirated

thank you, but I wonder why capital letters and then also the / ?
if only NA or na I could understand
N/A says also at some of my suppliers: not longer available, but this would have make no sense here, that is why I asked

 

Romano, your English understanding is good. But some references have to be learned from the primary language. The meanings are not all the same!

 

Yep, like saying "that chick is hot"

....doesn't necessarily mean because of the weather lol

that is why I sometimes ask for most of you "silly" questions

but also could mean this

 

For whatever it is worth for those who feel out of place here, Testarossa is LOVE. You LOVE it to won it, You LOVE it to work on it. It is that simple.

Many of us here connect way back. If you post here, make sure it is a fact or proven experiences and not some read in a magazine.

We have enough members here with experience and together we can create our own magazine of facts.

Testarossa is ART on wheels, exactly just that. If you want to modify it, do it with your $$$ and on your car first and see if it works. If you post bad or incomplete information expect to be corrected. This is not a Honda.

Special thanks to my friends Shamile, Trub-joe, Rifledriver and many others who i didnt list for listing your experiences and passion for the Testarossa community.

I know my 7 years of ownership of my TR would have not been as fun without your guys.

 

I am surprised I never broke the shaft. I have never been hard on drivelines and clutches. Slow steady pedal saves parts on Turbo cars. Dallas performance
has a supplier in Austria that has started making shafts and gears for their 2200hp Gallardos with sticks. I imagine for the right money they could make the shaft but how much could it handle is the question. Like you said, its diameter really hurts it. When these cars were 50-60k it was a great conversion and James Patterson had great success with his 700-1000 hp turbo Tr cars. It may be close to 100k to do a full engine out and build for 1000 hp now. You just have to keep the car for ever.

 

I don't want to insist but my words were true. They're dyno proven results. Go to 'carobu engineering' 's website. There is a section named dyno tested engines. They tested 3 TR engines. You can see the dyno graphs there.

 

My words were true except the steel piston thingie*****If I wasn't corrected that probably you would use it against me.

 

I think that this company already made shafts for koenig, main and propeller shafts ( but not sure, can not ask willy or walter anymore RIP
but even such a propeller shaft I have broken in my competition and willy as also walter told me that such a stronger shaft I have been the first who got it broken. never until now I had a broken mainshaft in my competition but it is not the original part inside ( meanwhile I have better mainshaft made by a company in bremen )

but have also as a memory a mainshaft broken where brian´s shaft was only bent, but this happened not to me. will have a look later on my other computer if I have photo of this shaft with me here in thailand

 

here now the photo from the broken mainshaft I mentioned in my former writing Image Unavailable, Please Login

 

Are you tracking a turbo Testarossa? Its too bad to see this but you and Rifle Driver have seen your share and correct that the diameter can't be increased so the car cannot fully utilize the excess brute power but you can still do some fairly nice pulls on the highway and the G-Force is out of this world and what other cars expect to see of a supercar. I need to get James Patterson involved in these conversations. He has had good success with the stock engine to 650hp and 1000hp full engine job Twin Turbo cars. Broken parts from some customers but some have gone without breaking a part. It just takes a smart driver that understands the mechanics of what is going on in your driveline and how to not abuse and shock it like a hotrod. I will look for pictures of the one I sold.

 

Traction, torque and weight can break parts!

 

tracking? no - only driving, but sometimes really hard
this broken shaft was not from my koenig competition, it was from N/A testarossa and I baught the complete gearbox with parts a time ago

absolutely true

 

Does this not effect the 512's or is their HP less enough to avoid it...?
