ok I'll be the first to ask this question. why do we NEED carbon fiber for non-structural shit? if you wanna pimp your pocket book size by throwing carbon all over the place, go ahead, but really, the fact that it's more expensive now will just add to the exclusivity, which is really what...

I've wondered for a long time if anyone had o-ringed this block. With all the shit we go thru with headgaskets, it's about time somebody did it.

there's alot of propaganda about supra's too guys. Just be very carefull about what you read/see especially subjective reviews, there's 1000 ways to make any car better or worse than any other.

amen to that.

welcome aboard.

disclaimer: I don't KNOW that this will work, as I've not done it, but I've hypothesized about it. E85 is your answer. stuff is between 100 and 105 octane. you should be able to run without detonation at that boost level on this fuel. HOWEVER, your fuel system will need an overhaul, and your...

fair point ya. I just figured that if it wasn't warped in the first place, the importance of machining is gonna go down ALOT.

should also add an option for "misdiagnosed" meaning... it wasn't actually a headgasket. There's people that immediatly change the head gasket 'cause they think that's what the problem is when infact it's something completely different, but they bandwagon just 'cause everyone tell them that it...

I wouldn't count on it passing smog, alot of them are cressida motors aswell, so count on swapping oil pans.

ya you should do that, odds are they'll be able to point you in the right direction. ya, engineering school is a mega-cunt, but I've learned firsthand that saying "where will I ever use this" is a really really really stupid thing to say. you WILL end up using it somewhere, or at the very...

fack, to drop even a stock viper is no small feat, good job man.

is it about looking nice? or is it about being fast?

pressure x volume = flow flow = power increasing pressure (boost) will increase flow and therefor power. Volume is the trapped displacement of the engine, with the level of knowledge you've shown you're at now, don't even begin to consider fucking with that, I'm not meaning to be hard on you...

lIkE j00 jU5t pR0\/3d d4t y0u r somewhat fucking dim. sorry, I couldn't bear to keep that going.

drag car. it'll be expensive, but launching a car that's built for drags is a rush that you can't get anywhere else.

do you not have problems with the aluminum exhaust melting? or atleast deforming? aluminum is only good till 625*c or so and under high boost you'd be into those kinda temps by the middle of the point I would think. That's why I never did it out of aluminum, would sure be sweet if I was wrong...

yes. this is why it's popular in race application. keeping exhaust heat off of your intake charge.

you'll do ceramicing at that price? if so I have some business for you, how big is your oven?

it's also a $350 solution to a $30 problem.

don't need pipe to make the muffler, sheet will work fine, get a couple of feet of 3.5" stainless pipe (metal supermarket has no minimum order will be maybe $2-3/foot) and you're rocking and rolling, use sheet to make the muffler and resonance chamber if you're gonna run a rersonator. If you're...
