A lot of bullshit being spoken in here. I made one out of 19mm marine ply in 2004, was on the car for over 12 months with no issues whatsoever. What I did different was give it a light smear of silicone and let it cure before I installed it. No vacuum leaks, no weeping, no distortion. Ply has...

PD blowers FTW

Usually concealed behind the bumper after the rear wheel arch

Maybe they're hard up for entertainment over there?

I think you're the one taking it 'to seriously ay' Since the second V6 powered car came out there has been someone on a budget doing things like this. It seriously turns your car into a ninja though, it blends in with the other 32 thousand V6's with the 'back muffler mod'

Very nice build man, good figures. Got any more details on the ported blower housing? PM if you like, cheers

Believe me, I am. I have a kit there ready to go on, but my law abiding side is holding me back. I can understand where you're coming from.

Because the law makes COMPLETE SENSE. Some people are happy to shut their eyes and follow the book to the 'T', but show me the real world differences between a big turbo setup and a nitrous setup. If anything, the nitrous is SAFER as most kits only activate at WOT.

Thank god you're here That must be a new thing

Whats the difference (road safety wise) between a moderate hit of gas and the light-switch-like power delivery of some turbo cars? As Jakstas said, I can't believe it isn't legal, I'd even be happy if they made me pass an inspection like they do with LPG systems... Other than that, I see no...

Might as well smash the front and drive your car into her loungeroom The door's ####ed anyway, might as well make yourself feel better while scaring the **** out of her

How much nos could a nos boss nos if a nos boss could boss nos

In QLD it is illegal to have ANY component of a nitrous system fitted to your regoed car. Obviously for this reason, insurance will skip off into the sunset, making confetti out of your policy papers should they find out. The OP is a bit weird. I havent heard anyone say that the 200 dry shot...

Metered air is not going through the engine. Pretty straight forward, been there done that lol

Also says pocket porting on one of the sheets. Not that it means much and that is a pretty rich build. Thats a lot of crack and hookers right there

Yes, I agree. I use it having 2 knowns (weight and trap speed) then have a look at power and lastly e.t in a perfect world scenario.

Have you tried running at a 'warmer' temp or do you have it flat out all the time?

Moroso slide rule rarely lies.

Any luck? What? lol

Thats a cop chip designation if ever I saw it

In this instance, the turbo or supercharger is mechanically creating flow. If you took the engine away, would there be any 'boost' pressure? This is what I was getting at. In an N/A engine, I agree with you, when the intake valve opens and the piston is travelling downwards in the bore, this...

A lot of talk about pressure, not much about flow or delivery volume. Pressure is the result of restriction to flow, just so you guys know. A supercharger or turbo that can flow more atmosphere than the engine can consume is making 'boost'

Good work. If there is enough airflow, heat soak won't be an issue

Very sceptical of that power figure. Even if the kit added a true 175hp at the tyres, thats still 303rwhp, out of a stock LS1? Doubtful. Nice power though regardless, 175 is a decent hit either way.

Get the rockers on first, then do a PTV clearance check with some plasticene

Ah, Procomp. Just like the distributor. Who ported the heads? Got any flow figures?

Any updates on any project?

'Different suspension for the extra loads' Just what do donuts weigh in at these days?

Anyone else see the irony here or is it just me?

Leaking Oil Pressure sender

Definitely repairable by a decent panel shop.

So its not actually a bolt. Best bet would be to get a set of easy outs, drill the bolt and remove it.

'"Axel stand"? Was he doing a stoppie at the lights?

take the shock back off, if you're lucky, there may be a piece of bolt protruding. Grab these as tight as you can with vice grips and try and remove it.

Custom Heads! definitely need to hear more about this I like the idea of firing it up at xmas time, nice party starter

Custom Heavy Duty

Thats a big engine! What type of heads are they? More specs on the engine!

Yours should have the lock up clutch in it too, so despite the stall size, it should act as per factory on the highway. If you talk to a converter shop, don't be shy with them, give ALL your specs

Around 50k so far and it's still not even going lol

Pedal position is **** for one. Two, I hear a LOT of people trying to rev match, only to fail as they don't release the clutch until the engine has slowed back to near idle speeds anyway. Brake pads are a lot cheaper and easier to replace.
