  • Last week, we were lucky to have the legend that is Guy Martin pop into REPerformance for a brew. He'd taken a break from filming nearby to see what we were up to in the engine build room and had lots of questions about our V10 and McLaren builds.
    He really knows his stuff and it was a pleasure to chat with him for over an hour, about everything from engines, to world-record attempts, and, of course, Motorcycle racing (a bit of a sore subject given the current state of Ricky's arm!)
    In fact, we got so much footage that we'll be uploading a part 2 and maybe even a part 3!
    Huge thanks to Guy for giving us his time - a proper, down to earth petrol head and a really nice fella!

  • @SB-vb8ch
    @SB-vb8ch 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    The big factor (from my understanding) with having injectors further away from the valve is charge cooling but as ever its a compromise with everything else which needs to be achieved like emissions, fuel economy, driveability, environmental tolerance etc. As you say though inlet tract design becomes crucial the further away the injector goes, factor in partial throttle operation & you start to see where staged injectors in different locations begin to appeal. The DI stuff is all about emissions really, no sane person would go down that route unless you really have to! Very interesting vid.

    Now I own an Audi A4 B7, S-Line, and I love it.
    It's 2006 but it's in very good condition.
    I have fixed a few things on it, but I wish I could dismantle it and get it like new.
    I would really love to be hired by somebody, to learn from them.
    But somebody who has standards of perfection, not some nakka with some silicone and an angle grinder.

    Without being rude you are in a different class of viewer as you don’t run cars without exhausts and tyre burning off up the road but unfortunately that’s what gets the viewers who are just gear knobs. Geeky attention to detail is fascinating to a few but not for the majority. If you’d done that skyline and then gone out blasting doughnuts you would have seen a huge improvement in your viewing also people are watching to see if there’s another car being given away. Good luck and please stop procrastinating and build that …….. noble
