(15 - your lb/hph ie. 1.1 or whatever) * 100
[QUOTE=Siminov;35956902]I got mine working very well, except it ran on higher octane and couldnt do it with the specified, so I'm disqualified.[/QUOTE] Lower compression ratio, richen fuel mixture, etc. You can make the engine run on lower octane fuel easily....
Well, I think I'm done with my engine. I've been spending the last 30-40 minutes just changing numbers by a hair and I think I've peaked it. Can't wait to unveil it. I don't expect to win but hopefully I'll be up around the top.
Score on first try = 110
Gah, was going to do it then realized it's a ~380mb download. My internet is limited, I'm allowed ~550mb of downloads a day
So i've also got my engine going well, aiming to get close to the top, spent like 45 min fussing with it.
I have to give this a try.
I just made an engine that is impossibly good, and i don't know how. I've checked everything and it's to the specs posted(i think). My new score is over 200.
What type of numbers should we be shooting for, I feel like I'm way above everyone else for some reason..

Managed to score 173 on my first rev. Time to do some tweaking. This is kinda fun!
I can't design engines for shit.
They should add all this functionality to Live For Speed, so you can simulate driving what you create.
Oh... I didnt hit 200... Guess i have some work to do. Remember to follow ops ruoes carefully!
Up over 200 total score. Probably tweak it some more but I don't know if it'll really get any better. currently .6 lb/hph economy and 194hp
[img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5698103/engine.JPG[/img] 1.5-0.7 = 0.8 * 100 = 80 202hp + 80 eco - 80 hp = 202? did i do it right? [editline]14th May 2012[/editline] wait fuck my engine is way to big lmao
Yeah. Gotta make sure its under 1300cc.
[img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5698103/engine%201.JPG[/img] is that within all the rules? score is 222 if i'm right
I believe we're restricted to multi point EFI with performance intake, too
shit that was direct injection HOLD ON shit wrong gas too
Good find and idea. Downloading now.
Am I allowed to have a 1300cc engine or does it have to be 1299 or less because I was able to squeeze out another point with it. Also are ITB's allowed? You mentioned "Performance" intake but unlike when you specified a standard 3 way cat you didn't mention if the intake had to be standard.
[IMG]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/79488177/tits.png[/IMG] far as i've made it tonight, might try to tweak it some more tomorrow but i really don't think i'll be able to get much more out of it without cancelling out hp gains by also raising the lb/hph.. costs are all wonky 'cause target factory is set to 1950, everything else is set to 2011 but i guess target factory just decided to be all different and ~edgy~
Making me download DirectX...got a little less than 20 minutes left. :\

The three way cat doesn't effect performance at all when you're using large pipe. Anyways, I'm done for now. If someone tops it I'll make it better :v [t]http://atomic.uirpg.com/files/Lucky7.JPG[/t] My score total is: [1.5 - 0.3 = 1.2] * 100 = 120] + 186 = 306] - 80 = [b]226[/b]
Never mind gotta download 382 mb. :sigh:

I actually used the oldest shittest materials in my engine. I don't even have any aluminum parts.
I hit a score of 238 on the first go! WOOHOO! Tuning time!
I achieved a 218, I've been screwing with everything I can and I can't seem to make it go any higher. I'm gonna have to take a break..
[QUOTE=OogalaBoogal;35961085]I hit a score of 238 on the first go! WOOHOO! Tuning time![/QUOTE] Specs? Screenshot? I am sure there are tweaks to get a few more HP out of the engines but I don't see 16 more horsepower, I squeezed pretty hard for what I made and Dylan is saying he made 2 more HP than me but has also yet to post screenshot.
