What is better for higher HP motors? I have herd conflicting info but I know alot of higher HP motors or race cars use air to water. The ford lightning, the Typhoon, the Hen Viper Venom all use air-water why do some ppl say air-air is better?

I am going with a T4 turbo but do I need to buy another elbow or does it come with one? Where are you suppose to buy them? I need it to go from a T4 to the stock downpipe bolt pattern

Well, first of all I have rod knock and wanted to know why it is so common on the 7M motors? Is it something we cause? Also I was reading Grim's engine overhaul post, (nicely done btw) you dont unbolt the bellhousing, you just take the tranny out with the engine? I have always unbolted the...
