393cc Inline 4 20V on steroids :P

[jimmycaille]

Hello,

I want to share my little 0.4L 20V DOHC Inline 4
If you have $2308.73, you can buy this little monster that can make 172hp @9500rpm



Any suggestions ?

And the good thing is: You wouldn't even have to return it to the dealer because it would not make it off the parking lot.

Ahaha right !
But how can I increase "a little bit" the lifespan ?

At least it runs very nice !

[edit]

Oooh I see.. in the test mode some parts are red ^^

This engine is just making too much power for the capacity and therefore is considered to be melting. With water-air intercooler, the limit for a working engine in the engine designer is currently at 250 kW per liter. Your engine is making more than 300 kW per liter.

This might be a minor problem as soon as the car designer is done. Then the actual grille/radiator area will be taken into account for cooling the engine. But in the engine designer, there had to be some limit for balance reasons.

Looks like you could prob take a couple hundred off the RPM and still have 160+ hp. This should have a pretty good effect on lifespan

nooooo carry on making engines like that atleast it will give me a fighting chance to shift some cars

[jimmycaille]

ok, OK ! My engine is bad and I should feel bad...
I see now, the intercooler can't handle the heat !

I found special how the cooler "float"...

[Juno8]

fix that floating intercooler Daffy....

[Killrob]

It's alien technology... they use floating intercoolers in their cars you know

[jimmycaille]

I like the new "wifi-cooling" technology

[Juno8]
