    Air to Air or Water to Air (Round 1)

    Assuming that no artificial cooling method is used, in motion a w2a and a a2a should be pretty close to the same temps, assuming some time driving has happened. since the front mounted heat exhanger is still cooled by air it can not get the water colder than the ambient air. Also, since the...

    Twin turbo LS

    True, but its almost impossible to pass on the deal when they both have less than 7k miles on them and are being sold to me for about $400 total.

    Twin turbo LS

    Just out of curiosity, how does the ct26 compressor wheel from a MR2 compare with the 16g's off an evo? Also, what rate does your pressure regulator rise? It would help out quite a bit with initial cost to be able to do a similar setup.

    Twin turbo LS

    Just want some opinions on some people before I start this project up. But I am planning on using two twin scroll 16g turbos off a stock evo 8 here in the States, non intercooled (at first), 550cc/min injectors with a greddy e-manage or apex'i s-afc to tune out the injector issues, bosch...

    Round or Square Tubes

    That couldn't be more wrong. Solid bar stock is marginally stronger than tube, the strength property of the material comes from the wall thickness. It also determines how stiff in just about any direction it will be. I will post some pictures in a few days of our tube chassis for our...

    Eaton M90

    reduce friction between the rotors, tighter seal between rotors and housing. plus, if you really start to spin the crap out of it I'd rather have a small chunk of teflon go into the motor than a small chunk of aluminum.

    Dang, that's what I was expecting. Well, I have an Apten ported m112 off a lightning sitting next to me that I am going to try to trade for a 03/04 mustang cobra mp112. I think I can fit it with one of whipples thin intercoolers as long as I have a rear entrance blower. I believe their thin...

    Zuffen, is there any way i could get some pictures of your setup. I am considering more than just a turbo for my LS400. I love the low end torque feel of our eaton supercharged shop truck, but I was told that the eaton wouldn't fit under the hood. I realize that if I am to supercharge my...

    Either way, for a street car it will be rather nice, good luck with your project. I would also like to see some pictures of this water to air intercooler setup. However, once again, in my opinion a properly sized FMIC will do almost the same job as a water to air intercooler, the main...

    Newkoba, in your post at the top you talk about being only 10 degrees above ambient temp with a water to air intercooler. This can be easily achieved with a proper front mount intercooler. I have recorded temps of 104 degrees after the intercooler on the intake temps of my friends car while...

    Supercharger Setup

    I think everyone is forgeting the original twin screw, Lysholm came out with the first twin screw supercharger I know of. For my personal setup I am going with a twin screw, since I have quite a bit of experiance with eaton and whipple superchargers I have grown to love the low end torque of a...

    blower

    You might have to have a manifold built if you want to use a water to air style intercooler, you might try getting one off a ford lightning or 03-04 cobra. I have done quite a bit of work on a lightning and can say that the aftercoolers used on those are quite large and have even considered one...

    Single Turbo Setup

    A t4 turbo is a 80's design that is lacking in efficiency for its size, Personally I'd choose a gt40 turbo. It seems to be a large turbo that will promote high power numbers at a relatively low boost pressure and provide the best of modern technology that still has an affordable price.
