Oh wow, are they hitting 300hp now! :o What Nm comes with that. Awesome development!Quote:

They are available though, so it could be done.

Thinking more of the cooling aspect with the restricted size of the radiator being a limiting factor though, power does create heat and it must be gotten rid of.

Go and look at alive tuning on Facebook they have Dynos of the lastest run 319bhp and 736nm
All verified and legit with standard bottom end they are pushing the boundaries
If you could increase the number of cores would you consider relocating the intercooler, to a top mount for example?Quote:

I got a full size manual intercooler which helps but allisport sell a bigger radiator

Heat would be the least of your problems.Quote:

At first look they are impressive figures, but if you actually look again you will realise that the torque curve is AWFUL, output under 2200 RPM is actually LOWER than a stock TD5 with stock everything.
Also of interest is that peak torque has been shifted upwards in the rev range by about 600 RPM, why would that be?
It's pretty simple, a few quick calcs tells us that approximately 35-38 lb/min of air flow is needed to make 319 hp on a TD5.
Thats if you want to stay anywhere near stoichiometric values... Which you need to.
The only way to get that much air into a 2.5 litre engine at 4000 RPM (peak power on the dyno run) is to run a pressure ratio of approx 4-4.5 @ sea level.
That's without any restrictions on the intake AT ALL, which is impossible of course.
In a perfect scenario that leaves us needing a turbo that can push 38 lb/min of air at a pressure ratio of at least 4... That's about 45psi boost.
If you go looking for a turbo that can do that, you will see that it's massively oversized for a 2.5 litre diesel, and miles out of the efficiency island, which gives you the trade off of no power until about 2400 RPM then BAM.
It would be almost undriveable as a manual and no good off road, and you'll be doing head gaskets like there's no tomorrow.
To make it driveable you would need to go a compound setup
But yeah... Impressive figures... if you don't look at the chart.
Yeah i agree, they were just showing what can be done, it not easy to drive and alive are still trying to get more out of the td5Quote:

Head studs should be able to hold 50psi so alive will soon tell us how much boost they were running
