this is AMAZING! good work man! PS.. who is riding the tranny with the hat?

great color. I would recommend turning the wheel the opposite direction so we can see the WHEELS and not just the tires and tension rods =) creates a better picture BTW i have a set of those wheels in the basement... i used to love em!

http://www.britishv8.org/British-V8-Back-Issues.htm this link shows TONS of articles in modding the Buick/Olds (rover) V8. BTW ... i dont think these things can put out more than 280rwhp. hmm can i squeeze any more power out of a small v8?

wizard.. I am not experiencing a backspin .. the surge is slowing the turbo down... a turbo w backspin would be severely damaged

that is a terrible picture.. cool idea.. but the intercooler is getting NO air.. only hot rising air from the manifolds... why oh why?

Do solid diffy mounts have a slight vibration and noise or is it a fairly noticable noise?! i just installed a solid differential mount and the car still vibrates like a bad rubber mount. Im assuming now the ujoint is bad on the driveshaft.. but just asking..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNAEVC4yLsQ&NR=1 Hmmm interesting animation of a Ferrari V8.. notice the dual plane crank?! I know the F430 has a single plane crank... but maybe this is the type of V8 used in the F40?!

formula one and older WRC cars use to use this setup... Keep in mind they are NOT allowed to use a blow off valve according to the FIA. They are allowed a Pop off Valve to prevent overboosting. Soo.. you would NOT be running a BOV in this setup

what do you mean very very low AE pulsewidths? can you shoot us a screenshot or type out the values? such as the 2v/s, 4v/s, 8v/s 15v/s?? Thanks!

i miss that gnose

Thanks guys! First off the wiring sucks ass. Last time i did it years ago was terrible.. in addition the alternator was OVERCHARGING and had a bad regulator. Problem solved!

oh me me! rdritlei @ mscd (no spaces)

i watched a video about those individual EGT monitors in my aircraft performance class! i wondered why cars didnt have those!

also... every turbo will flutter to a point.. if I "floor" it at 2,500 RPM.. and let the turbo spool a little bit and run 1psi or 2psi and let off. the BOV does not open even really loose.. and causes a small quiet flutter. ever listen to a car with HUGE turbo?! it will naturally flutter slightly. What will damage it is flutter from high boost.. like running 15psi letting off and hearing a LOUD flutter Blow off valves will also flutter when set to a very light setting they will open and close quickly. In addition external wastegates will flutter as well.. same as the BOV with it opening and closing

Help! I am getting 16v at the battery terminal of the ALTERNATOR and 11.7v at the battery... wiring seems to be fine and all fuses are a-ok. Car is a 1978 Datsun 280z.. and I am running a Z31 300zx alternator.. so i believe its an internal regulator.. Any ideas?

or we can all meet with the Z car club of colorado on the monthly meetings or ofcourse my favorite.. the track days! =)

sure its not a 16G turbo?

wow. thanks guys! Im still a fan of EFI.. but now I know the argument!!

why oh why would people go carbs?! im still confused by this. If carbs were the way to go.. why is formula one and WRC and all major car manufacturers using EFI?!

wow oh wow

how much they run you shipped?

those are rotas?!? they look just like panasports!! how much did they cost if you dont mind me askin?

ohh thats sexy!

i kinda like it.
