    Single Turbo V8 Sandrails - a rarity? a good idea? fast is fast right?

    It always cracks me up when v8 turbo guys say they have lag. I mean like a v8 is already massive torque non turbo so I just can’t relate. I’m like how fast can you go? What I think most guys are really saying is “ my car is too heavy” it does not “ move” as fast as I want therefore it must be...

    Air to air Intercooler - fans or no fans?

    Lastly. I have always felt pulling air through an intercooler with a fan(s) shroud is always better then pushing it from the front side ( just like radiators) so if you have room then…..

    Air to air Intercooler - fans or no fans?

    The tubing: if your turbo outlet is 2” then you can actually do anywhere from 2-2.5” to the intercooler. If 2” then you could actually start stepping it up along the way. For example do 12” at 2” then wedge it open to 2.25 and s distance and then finally 2.5”. To me it looks funny if you have a...

    Air to air Intercooler - fans or no fans?

    That intercooler looks great. There are two dimensions in play. The first is the “ charge face” which is the side where air enters. That is 12.5x 3.5=43.75 sq inches. My intercooler for up to 500 hp has a charge face of 36 sq inches so yours looks really reasonable. This is the dimension every...

    Air to air Intercooler - fans or no fans?

    yes while we are talking intercooler sizing, it is something done on the dyno, you would make back to back full throttle pulls with a pressure gauge on both sides of the intercooler, industry standard would be in the 1-1.5psi delta range, lower than that, then the intercooler is excessively...

    Air to air Intercooler - fans or no fans?

    I dont know why this is even a debate? the only right answer is what grease monkey said, put the best spal fans on it and run them all the time unless you have ability to control these fans by air temp too. putting on temp sensors and checking pre and post intercooler temps are great, but here...

    Slop in Micro Stub? Torque?

    maybe but there are people that have had this issue for years and had no ides (never recognized it), believe me. the other thing is if both sides are equally loose then my point even more because you and i know that bearings wont wear out exactly the same on both sides at the same time the OP...

    Slop in Micro Stub? Torque?

    Stop ! you might all be wrong, i have seen this before. before you waste your money try this. remove the micro stub, then get a long bolt and some large washers to compress the bearing assembly (the inner races together). once compressed then turn and inspect the bearing for free play if...

    Do you ever just sit by a fire….

    Fuel Pressure Subaru Turbo motor

    Which link ecu? Pics. 10 years ago e85 injectors were not available. You probably have regular petrol injectors. Once clogged they will never be ok. Why? Because injectors back then had some other materials in them that are not e85 friendly. It will only go downhill from here. You should...

    Fuel Pressure Subaru Turbo motor

    there is no "base fuel pressure" it can be what ever you want it to be and tune from there. typical Subaru regulators are 3 bar (43.5psi with no vacuum hose connected) fuel pressure can be adjusted up or down just like you can pick smaller and bigger injectors. if you have too small of...

    Correct Misalignment size

    Simply measure the inside width of the new one. Tell your supplier what hiem you’re using and see how close he can get to that measurement. If he can’t get there you may need to use a thin shim or two
