i can see it now, someone is gonna be begging duane to make a C/F set if he gets his hands on any more of the material :D

it could, most turbo guys use it to clean up the top of their engine, allow them to attach extra injectors or sensors and run a bigger TB. in addition to that it keeps the air cooler, and probably flows a bit better. general consensus here is that if youve got a stock NA, there isnt much...

its more of a BYO FFIM around here. a few people have tried their hands at making one, but like CRE said, you're better off stock if you're staying NA

damage didn't look too bad, glad noone was hurt.

"was it stored in a hedge?" haha, that'll buff out.

im partial to the adjustable konis, accessible from the top

just gotta have a lot of patience and a light touch to get the bolts to slip into the holes. i was a dumbass and took the entire intake off to change the starter. it was a total pain the ass but once i got to the starter it made that a little easier...

yep. lotta work is needed to make an NA go fast, but its not really worth it for 85-90% of the NA owners. however, for that last 10-15% that want to do something wild (like drain their bank account, 3 times over) this is the way to go.

getting rid of used cats:

ftmfw? for the mother f'cking win

if it was possible for a fistfight to break out in the chat room, it was gonna happen over QFT. a few nights ago there was a big misunderstanding. so which is it?

so is qft: quoted for truth quit fucking talking quite fucking true

holy hell SC, that thing is a beast. cant wait to see it in the 7m for dragging. what body are you using?

thanks for setting me straight guys, i think i did have the hot side of the turbo in mind when thinking about this.

people around here talk about selling them for around $60 scrap

just dont torque them down too tight, thats how they strip. i think the tsrm said it was maybe 8 ft-lbs.

thats about it. ive been looking for maximum boost for a while, cant find it anywhere around here. gettin ready to order it online its a good thing im NA, or id have already killed myself :biglaugh:

so should i be thinking about the outlet side, or are turbos designed to flow as much air as possible? if i owned one, it would be easier to conceptualize; i dont fully understand why porsche designed a turbo that would adjust in one way or another to be more efficient.

i asked why it wouldnt work, make it constructive criticism.

woke up this morning and a thought popped into my head. tell me why it won't work. would there be any plusses to designing a turbo with a spiral shuttered inlet that will open and close with the speed of the engine? a smaller inlet would allow less air while a bigger inlet = more air. this...
