    Supra is going to the mechanic

    if your mecahnic wants to pull the motor to fix the lines go some where else, he should be able to drop the front cross frame in about 20 minute's and put the new lines on and have it back together in 2 hours. top's. the problem is, the flat rate for the job is rediculous. contact your...

    horsepower gains from balancing

    raising boost doesn't increase the compresion ratio, but increases the combustion pressure. 8.4:1 refer's to the distance the piston travles in the bore. or so say the space difference from start to finish.

    horsepower gains from balancing

    i'll just add a couple cents here... balencing remove's the vibrations caused by harmonic's of the rotating parts. (sounds good right?) in other word's , if the weight of each piston, pin, rod , rings, are the same, and the crank is done aswell there is no forces working against each...
