  1. Slowboy Racing's New Cast Manifold!!!!

    It would be nice if they cast one with a garrett flange.
  2. dyno results

    Since you have been doing intake pipe work you may be leaking boost. Do a pressure check that would be the first thing I would check. Make sure all your seals are tight.
  3. magun stage 3 q's ???

    You are correct. For that price you only get the shortblock; the head is sold separately. Look into getting the Long rod option. I have done some research on them and may be worth the extra $200.
  4. High Flow cat question

    Doesn't Road Race sell test pipes with the cat heat shield welded on? You cant tell that you are not using a cat from a visual inspection.Check out this thread about 2/3 way down.http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=115996&highlight=rre+cat
  5. vertical vs. horizontal FMIC fins???

    kpt, you made some good points but for $200 I think it is a steal!!
  6. DSM Weight Reduction [merged] diet weight loss strip light

    The weight would only help you from 0 mph to 80 mph after that it is more wind resistance that you need to overcome.

    I would get all the parts together and go to an exhaust shop and have them cut and weld it together, it would be alot cheaper.

    How large (mm) is the inlet to the evolution? The tials have been such a standard with dsms, its good to know that there are other viable options.
  16. Bought a city house, has small garage, Anyone else have 1 car garages?

    Damn sounds like a huge house. Yea I guess I will just back the car up like you said. But that way I cant do any projects overnight I wouldn't trust the area around town if you know what I mean. People could get in and steal anything in the garage while I was sleeping. It is near center...

  20. Buying a PTE 50-trim

    They cut the housing to create turbulance after the turbo thus reducing the effeciency of the turbine and reducing boost creep. Thats why people can turn the boost down and not creep with this internal gated turbo. You will reduce the creep but loose flow capacity and a little top end.
  21. 20g or 50 trim

    THe PTE exhaust housing only comes with one A/R option even though they say .48 or .63. The PTE housing comes out to A/R = .55. Do a search I think that is right though.
  22. 264 or 272?

    That test was only done with a small 16g turbo which does not have a lot of top end anyways. So the top end is not that different between the set ups. It would be nice if they did a test with a larger turbo to see if the 264/272 and 272/272 combos fair better.Also the link says that the...

  30. Building a 2.4l hybrid need help.

    Would you expect to see similar timing for both the standard 2.4L and the long rod 2.4L or are those increases just because of the slightly better rod ratio?
  31. Building a 2.4l hybrid need help.

    Wow thats a big increase in base timing. What kind of ignition timing do you see?
  32. Building a 2.4l hybrid need help.

    Going to answer my own question because I found the answer here:http://www.swordfishgsx.8m.com/photo4.html"A longer rod reduces peak piston speeds slightly and delays peak piston velocity until the piston is further down the bore, which gives the intake valve more time to open more...

  35. PTE GT turbos

    Hey what psi was that run at? What octane gas?
  36. Pte

    Euphoric is right. Nanokpsi and GSXJEFF, you guys are forgetting about the hot side of the turbo.You would be right if you just changed compressor wheels, the only difference would be the efficiency of the compressor wheels.But most big turbos have bigger turbines and exhaust housings...
  37. PTE GT turbos

    Pardon my ignorance, but what is the tongue of the housing? And when you say it is symmetric do you mean that the center of the volute is centered with the turbine's inducer width or the whole turbine width? And why would this be a benifit since the turbine is not symetrical itself (ie. the...
  38. PTE GT turbos

    A/R ratio is just a ratio and can have different flow rates and spool with the same ratio.My question is how does the full garrett 4 bolt 0.48 A/R housings compare to the mitsu 7 cm housing? Both have pretty much the same A/R. But, what is the Area (A) and what is the radius (r) of both...

  42. Cars define turbos, turbos don't define cars

    Damn, your still not getting it!To extrapolate on your example: Take your two liter bottle but this bottle is different it has 2 necks and the water travels from the bottle to the first neck (engine restriction) then to the second neck (turbo restriction) then outside. The first one has a...
  43. MAF-T Blow through pros and cons??

    I was looking through Maximum boost by Corkey Bell and he talks about a reduction in throttle response when the air meter is further from the throttle body. So in this case the blow through may have better throttle response because the low pressure air pulse when opening the throttle passes...
  44. Cars define turbos, turbos don't define cars

    My pipe/straw analogy was just to help 14.5 visualize the difference between flow with more and less restriction. I was not talking about just the turbine housing. Re-read what I said in context with his questions.I still dont see how you can say this. There is a significant difference...
  45. Cars define turbos, turbos don't define cars

    No its not re-read my first post. Remember we are talking about the hot side of the turbo.
  46. Cars define turbos, turbos don't define cars

    Most turbines speeds are limited to the tip speed hitting the choke barrior which is about the speed of sound 1100 ft/sec. But the speed of sound changes with air density so it may be a little higher than that inside the compressor housing.
  47. Cars define turbos, turbos don't define cars

    Try thinking of it this way. If you blow through a straw (small turbine) it will be hard to flow a lot of air because it is small. Air molecules build up and create pressure. Your lungs will strain due to the psi in you mouth (exhaust manifold).Now if you blow though a 3" pipe (big...
  48. Cars define turbos, turbos don't define cars

    You are thinking of psi and flow as the same thing. The exhaust manifold may have less psi but be flowing more, more energy to spin the turbine but less psi.To continue your example, say you blow through the T88 it will take more breath because it is less of a restriction. Just imagine...
  49. Cars define turbos, turbos don't define cars

    Maybe if I explain it this way it will help:Say you have a 16G turboIf you look at the turbo map you will see that it takes a shaft speed of about 115,000 rpms maintain a PR of 2.0. And say at 4500 rpm (engine speed) you are moving 250 cfm...
  50. Cars define turbos, turbos don't define cars

    No, the smaller turbo is MORE restrictive. You have to think in terms of flow. Once the bigger turbo is spooled up it will take less exhaust manifold pressure to create the same intake psi.
