    Ecotec individual runner manifold

    KhaosInc, i totally agree with you, while the potential would be very minimal on a dead stock engine the benifits would be huge on an engine running 10.5- 12:1 comp with a custom ground camshaft running 250-260 duration @50". We have been looking at putting together some ecotec rotating...

    Ecotec individual runner manifold

    Hey guys, just wondering if anyone thinks an individual runner manifold would be a good thing for the N/A ecotecs. My thoughts are six ram tubes starting there tapper from 55-60mm and going down to six individual butterfly's of around 35-38mm with injectors mounted above the throttles...

    Hey EcotecManiac, It's not that your being harsh on the guy, you know a N/A engine wont make that sort of power unless it's of it's face, I know that but you should have left the poor guy get consumed in his own crap if that's what made him happy. Oh well i guess he may be having nightmares...

    Ecotec Cams

    G'day v6berlina, So by the sounds of thing the engine is pretty much stock with the cat back exhaust and some rather short gears in it's bum. In my opinion for this type of combo, you will need a cam that's capable of high speed breathing tor your engine yet it should have a very broad power...

    Buick V6 Fans

    sircuisealot, if you are contemplating a twin turbo set up, don't make the same mistake that these guys made. The turbo's were VL which we then reco'd and further high flowed like a t3/t4 hybrid's, in my opinion this was overkill for the small amount of boost that they ran. The thing would...

    Absolutely Josh, some of these guys come across theories that they have never put to practice in their life, and in many cases the theories are further compounded by additional bullshit theories until it all gets blown out of proportion. As far as I'm concerned you cant go past hands on...

    MBS206, Hi and thanks for your concern, i really don't Know where you plucked these figures out from, taking a standard engine and the applying a boost number to work out your horse power out put is flaud and bullshit way of doing things. I don't know if there is any envy here, but i do know...

    My VT twin TB project under way

    Hi chevy_big_block_bro, looks like you have put in quite a max effort there. The only thing your going to have to do now is sort out the acoustics that occur in the plenum at different loads and rpm ranges and you'll be laughing. He are some pics of my setup for the PumpAction turbos...

    Buick V6 Fans

    sircruisealotvs, The gen3 maf was used inconjuction with the map sensor, in order of retaing a very high resolution fuel map. A map sensor was used for accel enrichment and deccel enleanment and is dissabled from the main fuel equation, as it would only have 256 lookup points. The air meter...

    VN crank questions

    Hi Vn2Vn, You could be right, the one certain difference would be that the auto crank be missing the spigot bush in the end of it for the gearbox input shaft. The other difference might be rear main seal but not quite sure. Cheers Lou.

    Hi Jes, Suspension is not an area we specialize in, we are more into engine technologies so if we gave any advice in this area it wouldn't be the best advice. In order of getting best results from your suspension you need to speak to someone that is more involved in this field. Cheers Lou.
