    R154

    I'm bringing a container across from the East Coast. If anyone wants to get a transmission, let me know and I can have my relatives look for one locally for you???

    Direct port Nitrous, any safer?

    I think I answered that question in another thread.. not sure, may have been another board... but LOTS of Viper owners run propane in a BBQ bottle. I would guess it would be good because you probably wouldn't have to direct-port inject it, and it would spray out instantly like the n2o. Extra...

    Propane instead of Fuel in a Nitrous system?

    Yeah, lots and lots of Vipers have BBQ tanks in the trunk.

    1uz On NOS?????

    Any car I've ever seen running a small shot like that has stuck with the stock compression ratio. The reason you drop it with forced induction and not n2o, is that n2o cools the intake air, and apparently sucks more heat when it splits into nitrogen and oxygen. That's enough to avoid detonation...

    Why do you want to lower the compression ratio?

    Oh I thought you meant an extra *fuel* injector...

    Drivetrain slop

    Dunno.. doubt it. The gearbox mount should be easy enough to see if it's screwed... planetsoarer.com has good pictures. You should just be able to jack up the trans a bit and pull the crossmember and mount. When you get a price on the mount, check around (here, ALSC, CL), and see if you can get...

    fabricating for supercharger

    There ya go :) As I said, I wasn't sure, just throwing it out there... Just thinking it would be easy to make an exchanger out of copper pipe or something. Probably testing them now and then isn't a bad idea - maybe make sure the water doesn't sit in there too? I dunno how easy it would be...

    fabricating for supercharger

    Dunno jordy... aluminium isn't completely corrosion proof.. Apparently if you run an al radiator with straight water, it eventually leaks. I left my al framed motorbike in the courtyard of my house while i went overseas for a couple months over winter. Came back and the parts of the frame with...

    fabricating for supercharger

    Can you pump river water straight through them without fear of corrosion? Or would you need another heat exchanger? I'd hate to see one of those ICs develop a leak.... ouch.

    Intercooled M90 Eaton Supercharger

    I think you mean 1.3 or 1.4 psi fuel for each psi of boost? 14 * 7 of boost would put fuel pressure up around 140.

    Yes, you do pay on 2nd hand. I have every time.

    cast steam pipe bends

    What is wrong with cast for exhaust? There are plenty of cast iron and cast steel manifolds. What do you think stock is made of? I think you would be very hard pressed to build a turbo manifold out of mild steel. Mild gets bendy when it gets hot like that, and it also rusts REALLY fast when it...

    fabricating for supercharger

    Yes, but Neil's kit is not for the DIYer who wants a piece here, a piece there, and do all the labour himself. Neil's kit is a low-risk, no weeks-of-BSing-around trying to figure out what is wrong, comes with an Engineer's Certificate, total package. That is what you are paying for - he has done...

    cast steam pipe bends

    OK.. are you still high? Cars with stainless manifolds that I can think of off the top of my head: Titan Motorsports 8 sec Supra - Greddy T88, don't have the specs on their 7sec Celica, but I bet it is the same motor. HKS Supra 249mph Jun Akira Supra SVSi 8 sec Stryker TT Viper EVERY...

    cast steam pipe bends

    Huh? You say their manifolds are made from steam pipe bends, then you say it's not appropriate for exhaust manifolds? Do you mean to say made from normal mandrel bent steel pipe? Because that **** will sag and rust when it gets really hot. I'd say most of them are made from stainless.

    cast steam pipe bends

    True, it is pricey. I think you can get DIY ceramic coating stuff.. not sure how well it works.
