    Yeah I always knew TCI did one I was just after alternatives but seems like there is none. Basically it will turn the auto into a full manual with the shift pattern reversed. P R N 1 2 3 4 Because it's full manual if it was the standard shift pattern parking n going from R to 1st would be...

    Anyone got a vn t700 fully manualised??

    Hi, I'm chasing alternatives to the TCI reverse pattern full manual valvebody. Wondering if anyone is running the TCI unit or others? I'm trying to build a tough box that will handle around 350hp at the treads and 700nm tq.

    Old digup I know but do you have any info on the manual valvebody in the box, brand name etc.? Was it reverse pattern/engine braking ?

    Chilling fuel

    Yeah. Once the cooler goes on with the fuel going on/thru is aswell air intake temps should drop a bit. Aslong as it goes 11 I'm happy. Which it will

    Chilling fuel

    I've heard that water/meth injection strips the Teflon coating on the m90s rotors over time. Wen I put te cooler kit on I'm gonna pull the blower down again and see how the fuel is affecting everything.

    Chilling fuel

    The liquid to gas cooling was the driving force between the injectors in the blower idea. I've got a few pics in the miscellaneous section. The whole build is on l67t tho. Haven't really had much intrest here to warrant the effort to share it all, fair enough tho as it is a commodore site

    Chilling fuel

    No it won't be a dodgy old cooler hanging out the front. The cooler on the front atm is in as pretty good nic, I was also going to cool it using CPU fans or something similar as I said earlier, most likely in the boot next to the cell

    Chilling fuel

    Yeah I am running e85 and bp98 tunes, I'm thinking of using my old tranny cooler with a couple of CPU fans on it wired in series with my thermos so I can switch them on whenever. Holden engineers wernt thinking about it I would say because they don't consider aftermarket performance. I'm gonna...

    20 degrees is a fair drop, i already run a mace 25mm insulator mainly for clearance, it helps a little. Do you have any pics of the peltier setup or could you draw a simple diagram? Also how much would one be to suit the application ? I've looked around on a few sites and they seem fairly cheap...

    Has anyone had experience in chilling the fuel supply for an increase in power? I know the fuel gets pretty warm in mine especially e85, the yt fuel rails are hot to touch in the bay after a bit of drive. I've heard of peltier coolers being used also I've found this on the net which uses co2...
