New engine build Scania DC1601 for our semi truckpuller.

Project for oncoming week. Toyota Hilux 1kd ftv D4D 3L Commonrail Diesel Off Road Rally Car. Build the wire and a load of other stuff as well.

Good luck with the 1kd, they seem a pretty tough reliable engine. There quite a few vehicles here in Oz make more than 200 rwkw on an unopened engine. Better turbo, injectors and really good intercooling, along with with a uni chip or hks piggy back computer make this happen.

I see you use adpatronic on this, I'd love to see how far you can push these.

Thais make close to 500 hp with piggypack.

We made 400Hp+ from a 2.5L 4 Cyl CR engine for racing in Thais country.
 
Well Leiffi yes as it’s not the ECU that makes the engine power but the hardware that’s is controlled by the ECU. We done a load of work for these countries building development ECU systems that make a lot easer finding the parameters needed.

Just to get some idea on why we do a ECU installation on this rally car.
It’s all a bout control and redundancy. Something that is hard to get done on a OE ECU system in a easy way as every project needs different parameters and so on. Second thing is support and information as there are more teams using our ECU system that know how to work the system and give feedback on things if needed.
Hp and torque numbers are not that hi but you can maintain max power all the time and really the engine is one of the stronger parts of the car. Gearbox drive train and suspension are the weaker parts that will often breakdown so what is the use of more engine power if you wreck a gearbox all the time as your engine is to strong? We could set max torque per gear and so on......... So you need to find a mix between what parts can handle and performance and this takes a bit of engineering and help my customers to understand and make improvements on things. So we do a lot more than only ECU systems. I know the game as I was a rally driver my self winning races.

Mitsubishis were the only ones that broke gearboxes there and I felt bad for the transmissions hearing them just basicly moving they left foot to the side off the clutchpedal at full revs with dragslicks. Toyota engines seem to be the worst of jap pickup engines, Dmax Isuzu is the strongest. No one can even program Toyota ecu because it is so complicated, Isuzu is better in that too.

Well they all had there bad days breaking and changing gearboxes while road testing. When I was over Asia most team had there service working overtime on them getting them fixed over night.
We done a Isuzu and I must amid these engines are good pulling over 400hp for cirquit racing.
 
Result of today pulling Hobby Sport Semi Truck Pulling. More than 12 meter past our competitors and a track with a lot of traction.

I wonder why Volvo is not that popular in US and Canada as I think it will be a very good base for a pulling engine.

Little fun with a brand new 730Hp V8 XPI engine that is going to be used for semi truck pulling. :evil

The new reinforced connrods are in and yesterday we gave them there first test on the 100 meter track. We are now able to manufacture these customs builds parts.

Video from last night pull.

Pull off whas not a load of fun breaking 2 pulling sled having to wait for the sled that can handle the semi truck power.
Ending up seconds place and eager to get the engine power up again with some new fuel injection parts ready to be tested.

As I get so many questions about the max RPM. CAT C15 injector running over 4500Rpm with the Diesel ECU system. System ready to go to the USA.

No, its because they're installed IN a Volvo. A puller is usually something that requires a lot of maintenance. You would be a idiot to use a truck that is a nightmare to work on by design.

Also we have easy access to parts to make Cat/Cummins/Detroit/Mack competitive in the classes we have. Bring a Volvo over here and start spanking the competition and people might look into them. The top pullers are in the 3K hp range so bring your A game.

There are a few over the 3,000hp mark, you don't have to believe it, but that doesn't make it untrue.

I dont believe any hp numbers from pullers. Here they think they are at 2500 hp under max 2900 rpm rule. I believe when they dyno it, there is good hub dyno available but highest have been up to date 1400 hp, they thought it was over 1800 hp...
 
I know for a fact that a kta1150 made 3200hp on a single prostock charger. I am sure some of the 3406's and E9'S are nocking on the door as well.
