Was reading a Pattaya real estate magazine today which featured a story about a developer / architect Mario Kleff who is importing a engine to power his super car. This engine supposedly puts out 1700 Hp , no details supplied other than a computer generated artists impression of what it looks like.

No details of this supercar other that super Mario designed it from scratch, but it will have a top speed of 400 KPH, as fast as the Million dollar+ Veyron.

What sort of audience does this blowhard tosser think he is going to impress?
Fvck me ! I know Pattaya is the worlds centre of excellence for bullshit stories but even a thick head council worker tourist from Burnley isn't going to believe that one surely.

dirtydog

Isn't Burnley in the UK? I thought you was from New Zealand

I only hope the car looks better than his buildings. But even if it's powered by a rubber band, it's bound to move faster than his apartments.

Fuzzy Bob

So you're the one

True enough Dog, I did spend my formative years in NZ (Gods own cuntry) but in my long Career as a serial loser I happened to spend a month or so in Burnley.
We were doing a job in Manchester but they wanted us to survive to finish the job so accommodation was in Burnley, and I remember thinking at the time this place is the depository of all the thickest cvnts in the world, but that was before I had seen Pattaya.

toooooooooooo funny!

you wanker!

peterpan

All we have seen so far is "leaning on the bar bullshit" when you have some thing to show us, do so.
But until then, you are a typical Pattaya Real estate Bullshitter.
By the way, this is the correct spelling for achieve, thick cvnt.

kingwilly

bumped into a work colleague at the bar last night.

He proceeded to tell us a story of a bloke who got HIV from a bargirl in Indonesia, so he got the police to help him round up every girl in Blokm that he'd ever slept with and had them all tested for HIV, and found the positive one, and married her.

I called him on it, I just said straight up, that's bullshit.

He got upset, and said no, it's true. That he'd met the fellow once.



wanker.

Sorry to disturb you. Found forum and link right on Google search... / interesting speech Mr. Peter Pan - h^mmer still slow...
Hi, this is Mario Kleff
perhaps I can assist as I am the owner of the engine and reason for this post?
1) the engine can be seen at "wandeegroup engine"
2) the engine full running accelerate faster BV, as Bugatti's setup cannot produce that sort of torque as "dragster" engines can, and also was never planned
3) further information about a new development charger: whipplesuperchargers.com/product.asp?ProdID=1232
it only works when it will be installed on a proper engine and right fuel... however it takes a bit more
Recommendation: a bit more polite

peterpan

I dunno what half of this means Mario, but the reason I called you out on your story being BS is that 1700 BHP is so far from being achievable that its ridiculous. I don't care what Mr Red Vauxhall claims either, it just ain't true.

I don't know what size you engine is but assuming its a 7 Litre producing 1700 BHP. That would give you a rough indication of 1116 Lb/Ft of torque which would mean a BMEP (Brake mean effective Pressure) of 394 PSI. By comparison a F! car has a BMEP of 212 PSI and NASCAR of about 200.

Assuming your engine in naturally aspired form puts out 500 BHP, about the maximum for a Drivable street engine of 500 BHP adding a whipple with 12 PSI boost and using 100 Oct fuel


HP Loss due to timing adjustment: 10 Est. flywheel HP with supercharger: 866.5 Est. rear wheel HP with supercharger: 693.2 Total HP Gain: 366.5 flywheel HP Percentage Gain: 73.3 %
Long way away from yr 1700 BHP mate.

Nawty

Peter....but will it go fast ?

AntRobertson

BHP seems to be a lot like todger size, everyone exaggerates theirs.

I watched a doco the other day 'Love the Beast' about the actor Eric Bana and his love / hate relationship with a XB(?) coupe that he'd had since a kind and had rebuilt several times. He spoke to several other celebrities during the film (Jezza Clarkson, Jay Leno etc...) and each time he mentioned the BHP it somehow magically increased - started at around 400, was up to 600 or something by the last interview.

Good film though, definately worth a watch.

^ Ones biggest mistake in life is to start believing your own Bullshit

Bobcock

My cock is still bigger no matter what car he drives and that's the be all that ends all

AntRobertson

My wife tells me that I look like a big cock when driving my 225BHP 450 SLC.

Spin

^ Smeg looks likes a right cock whether he's in his BMW, or not.

AntRobertson

^I bet he's got one of those key chains with a very prominent BMW logo on it!

... well explained so far.
On a 7.0 litre engine you may be well true with what your saying - agreed. However, there a lot's of details more come in... such as CFM and fuel pumps etc. however, I am not using a 7.0 litres engine # so here is your first mistake

such power, naturally aspired, needs basically a 540, 580, 632 or 700cid engine and got to run with 116, 117 or 120 octane, while root blowers this style requires 117/118 octane - that are fact's/

The carbs on this motor are modified "Nascar" and today flow 1340cfm, powered by 2.500hp magna fuel pumps - than again not 100 octane, but 117!
A complete Pro Stock engine is no larger 500 cubic inch and produces more than 1.350hp at ca. 10.000 rpm without this "mentioned" supercharger (rootblower) and run 118 octane/

this said motor is a new engine development by Gregg Hekimian and can archive such power. Basically designed larger Pro Stock and setup like a combination of "Pro Stock and Dragster", as this motor produce most power under 6.500rpm Further information can get there.

By this way - he is known for building engines in ranges beyond 3.500hp/ same as the engineers currently building my new methanol /nitrous engine. these teams having youtube full since... fame/professional and delivered the big dogs up to 8.000bhp - two times world record runners in various classes. So I'd be a bit less loud, unless you believe of being better than 35 years experienced racing engine builders/

Just because you can't believe or afford it, means not it is not possible/ who on this post has even seen a motor that class - more important: can understand it.

My motor has been approved and runs - so what are you talking about?

In a 2.200-2.100lbs car is this motor using 117 octane fuel run 200mph at lower 7 sec. the quarter mile! Comparison F1 need over 11 sec.

Engines like this (reliable and without often maintenance) starting cost 50k up to 75k plus a tran for 10k up. Engine complete with all add. parts and cooling rated 110.000k, plus 100.000k for chassis and body including axles and suspension etc., another 30k for interiors, plus import and legal documents and some small other things. VL[at] a unique car of highest quality half the cost super cars and run faster // and there are no discussions, unless you can proof am wrong./

For you and others in advance: it also is true having build a new 940 cubic inch aluminum/titanium engine build (custom engineered) that will eventually produce 3.200hp for street use. Not because such a engine is not able to produce more - simple not possible to use more on road... everything above 3.000 will have traction issues/ and more important: stress factor on rods (even titanium), extreme heads on transmission (and there are only Lenco that level), and so on.
such engines in a all out 2.100lbs car can run 250-270mph in 5-6 sec. on 400 metres. And I'll get one - right now.

So before you claim around, I suggest doing some more and better homework.
Hope all this helps.

^ The only bit that I do understand Mario, just seems like a load of old Bollocks. Riddled with factual errors, looking like something that would have been written by 14 year old rev head. I mean what the hell does this all mean?
You expect us to believe that you can build a streetable car with an ancient design (I mean face it, that basic configuration goes back to the 50's) 2 valve pushrod engine that can deliver 1700 BHP.

By comparison the supercharged McLaren Mercedes V8 5.4-liter sohc 24V V-8, puts out "only" 617 bhp.
