Technical T-jet Sei

[fingers99]

Strange to see that enormous old gearbox tied to such a teeny engine.

Just to resurect an old thread, just came across this, new power stage of the most famous Sei in PL, sit down when you watch:



Alledgedly this is uphill

already subscribed to that youtube channel - been waiting patiently for more uploads of his 1.1 16vt sei lol

(indicated) ~135mph in a Sei is a bit, um.

 

[blu73]

its how it gets there thats impressive though, even my seiT (very tame by comparison) will go right off the clock pretty easily.

Oh, that one blew its gearbox to pieces recently

And the speedo is well calibrated

gutted, i guess that explains lack of video's then...

So it seems that the car was back on its feet again, but before any vids were shot it blew one piston (again). Will have to reassembled again

Needs charge cooler and ice!

I'm guessing they're running the old Alfa box -- seems the 500s for the race series run a variety of the GM M32 box (as used on the Bravo, etc.). Wonder if there's enough room in a Cento?

 

[blu73]

yeah he posted another video on youtube, but just the one lol.

The folks are trying to find their limits. The 1.1 16V blew the piston on 1.5bar boost, at the compression ratio of 11,7:1 (!). They claim it was fine at 1.2 bar . Stock internals I believe...

 

[blu73]

I keep telling people they are strong engines and can take a right beating, although even I think that's crazy thing to attempt lol. Saying that, most Polish people I've met are quite crazy haha (in a good way).

The t-jet in a cinquecento/seicento is a realy good idea

 

[Karolis]

I think that Seicento is not most famous only in the Poland, but all over the world with that crazy performance :devil:

This is a devil Rocket!!!
