Hi, I've been reading recently about the new engine that's being developed for Formula 1 next year and basically, I think it'd be great if we could sample it and get a bit of a feel for it. So, I was wondering, if I give you all the most up-to-date figures I've found that the new engine is expected to produce, would anyone be able to write the text/ini. files I could use with the Formula Reiza mod with all the characteristics for the new engine?
They've recently upped their estimates for power and such a fair bit, and they won't be exact I'm sure, but close enough to get a good feel for it. The most recent figures I have managed to find are these:
It's a 1.6 litre V6 Turbo (Single Turbo, Single exit exhaust)
700hp Engine + 161hp "Kers", a temporary boost button giving 33.3 second's-worth-a-lap boost.
(Or if you can't incorporate temporary boost, simply an engine of 861hp overall)
500bar direct fuel injection pressure. Boost pressure to be capped at a "typical Maximum" 3.5 bar abs. (?)
600nm of Torque.
15000 Rpm Rev Limit.
8 forward gears.
Weighs 145kg. Although I don't know if you need to know that xD
Any other numbers/figures you need I'll find out for you.
Obviously the Formula Reiza car isn't exactly the same as the 2014 cars will be, they'll most likely have wider rear tyres, lower noses, narrower wings etc so I'll have to turn down the downforce a bit, but I think it'd be fun if we could sample driving the engine and see how it feels!
