Re: Help needed - Daewoo Lanos 1.6

200WHP should be fun, it's not crazy like your Nubira, but I'm sure it will be a very quick little car ( I assume it's a Corsa ) Hopefully I didn't discourage you to much, I simply feel the Daewoo 1.6L is an unproven platform to build from where as the 2.0L is capable of high power with little risk...

Re: Help needed - Daewoo Lanos 1.6

Hi guys. Thanks for all the input. I know Wolfhound had issues with the press fit connecting rods and had the rods rebushed and converted this to a floating system pin type. I am leaning towards keeping the engine as is with the 1600 setup - that is at 200WHP that Wolfhound was running it for some t...

Help needed - Daewoo Lanos 1.6

Hi guys. Just picked up a Lanos 1.6 turbo motor from Wolfhound in Durban this weekend. The motor has been built right - Wiseco forged pistons, Cometic headgaket and all the turbo stuff needed to run a respectable 200wheel horse power. I am just curious - the engine is still using standard Lanos 1.6 ...

Re: Nubaroo at the Airstrip Dragstrip

Here is a clip of me running against a Golf....there is a lot of wheelspin in 1st and 2nd gear smoking the tires and my 60Ft time is slowish.....this is because my slicks were worn out/finished and after this run there was only canvass left on them :oops: 200KM/H on tires with virtually no rubber le...

Nubaroo at the Airstrip Dragstrip

Hi there.

Just stumbled across this clip. I am running against a Toyota from one of our biggest tuners here in SA. The Toyota makes around 600KW on the rear wheels :shock:

This is the best run ever on my Daewoo :D :D

Nubaroo dyno tune and power run 05 June 2011

Had the daewoo back on the Dyno. It made 353KW/565NM at 2.5 bar boost. There was a missfire on higher RPM which caused the power to be a bit down - you can hear it near the end of the run. Will redo the power run early this week and repost
