In 2008 ...

... we decided to deal professionally with the racing Dragster. Having more than one thousand cars and buildings to his credit improver our house (such as atmospheric, light turbo, turbo k improvement steps' big turbo) and our expertise at a very high regard as the engines of Opel. The challenge for something bigger was not long before we hit the door! The goal was to build the best Opel FWD thoroughbred racing car in its class by Greek hands!
Very quickly found our facilities a lightweight Corsa B. Immediately bought a Quaife sequential gearbox in the eyes of all to fall on a future purchase of an Xtrac. The choice for the engine could not be other than the legendary square of Opel "C20LET" where he bought two ..

One of the two motors strapped to the gearbox And after several hours designing t 'work created the 4 mounting tous.I next move was by far our good friend t' year partner James Herby Roll Bars where k 'was asked to help to strengthen the body.

The chassis sewn and reinforced throughout various parts of the body to achieve the rigidity! The safety cage is six points specifically designed for such applications and continues until the flared front-systimatos.Ta beak framework strengthened and these in turn always under the regulations of the class!

Exhaust System

[Southie]

''Success lies in your choices''The success lies in our choices k 't know "call it, so we work with kaliterous! Stelios Panagiotarea''POPEYE''the guru of our exhaust built an amazing octopus divided and a final evaporation from inconel spring restraint akrapovic.
You need lots of attention and good work to build the pollaplis.Einai been collected of critical importance to achieve very high flow spool up without sacrificing strength.

After assembly, small finishes before the final placement of the GT42R ... was also chosen t 'one of TIAL 60mm external in order to control the pressure of the turbine ..
The length of extraction is long enough where it really helps at high rpm ..

The divided octopus serves to reduce the costs likely relocate the turbine or to change the length of plokamion.Meionei also much vibration in the compressor as the chances of a rogmis.To disadvantage of this construction is that a lot of pressure 3 - 4 bar, the volume of gas pushes the cast iron turbine k 'tends to remove points of compounds where the springs hold!

The vast Garrett GT42R sits comfortably in her new home! With such a heavy turbine and forces the exhaust inside the manifold to exceed several times 70 to 80 pounds pressure, springs restraint in a difficult position!

The placement of external TIAL studied enough so that the weight does not create problems during the acceleration at all! The base beneath the turbine is to hold the weight tis.Esoterika the base there is a spring-strength 200 kg in order to restore compressor to the original point.
Here is a very well k 'stainless steel cast iron V-band of Tial sport, which in turn helps to save weight, but t the easy import and export of completely deleting compressor gaskets!

PWR INTERCOOLER


H time to install the intercooler arrived just as the weight and vibration were provlima.Parthike very difficult decision to build from scratch a database on the basis sasman.Mia will hug and a squeeze!
The original shape created from clay to find the right angles and slopes! The transfer of plasticine each time to become michanourgio if any oritsa before was in the freezer!


The base of the intercooler was designed and implemented within two weeks! Both photos with us 1000 words!
''The breeder proved to challenge comes antimetotos and the size of the revealed and the level of''

A photograph of the inner water-cooled radiator of PWR which is sufficient to cool up to 1200 horsepower! An incredible structure with massive expertise behind it!

Once placed in the petrol tank dekalitro ATL right of the field and left the radiator with oil tank pentalitro the Peterson series had to finally snaps and intercooler to mount to expect that and how. . .
START YOUR DREAM CAR NOW!

After three years of intensive study and physically meaningful cooperation with Greek business type (D-Project, NSRACING, Drakos engineering, Ergonsport) and external tuners (STM, Alamo Autosport) come to surpass our goals and making synechisouze a competitive world-class ..
.. Diamon d

The motor Diamond (Diamond) as used to be called by our circle were the 19 Big turbo motor in the series improved from the hands of our house!
STM

In cooperation with the STM-speedtech motorsport will adapt the technology used for shifting the WRC-Formula 1 and in our D19GS drag race Corsa B! Astrapiaies changes at the touch of a button on the steering wheel is now a reality for mas.Opote get ready to watch in future changes to fire us any speed cost only a few tenths of a second!

The Ghostshifter design exclusively for construction chasing world records! For this reason created and used by the STM for the project of DS9 EVO 9 drag car when taking advantage of the excellent service made him the amazing time 8.340 @ 169.7 miles / hour! !
Our team aims to break the barrier of 9 seconds in the AT1 group here in Greece, stay tuned with us and watch the step by step chtisimo the car itself and the evolution of!
DREAMS never falls into crisis. . .

Very impressive, but placing the fuel tank there is madness.

Very impressive, but placing the fuel tank there is madness.

was just thinking that...

[mowgli]

well, its as far from the driver as you can get it, and a drag racer is all about getting traction, so any extra weight over the driven wheels seems like a good idea to me

[shed-on-wheels]

mental but look how thick those engine mounts are!!!

[wwmnw]

Some crazy cars appearing in that side of the world.

[mowgli]

and if your countries economy has only got 6 weeks till it disappears up its own kazoo, you'd be spending money whilst you have some....

Wow, some proper engineering and research has been carried out there, exhaust manifold looks interesting

[Connor]

They have also built some other impressive cars, liking the carbon airboxes they have made
