    Supercharging AND Turbocharging

    I was so hoping Warpspeed would turn up! :P Welcome back dude, I love the thread on the Engineering Forum, incredibly interesting read. So going with twincharging seems wonderful if you can manage it, what I totally havent thought about is twin charging with an SC AND an SC, using a roots/twin...

    HID Projector Conversion

    Everything I've read about putting HID's where they weren't originally designed to be generally isn't good. Certainly here in the UK anyway. Yes they will work and yes they generally will give a better light output, but there are so many reasons like alignment and glare in other peoples eyes...

    Testing Picture attachment

    I'm affraid I can't see the picture mate :( But you I know exactly what you mean, I'd choose the NES or the Atari as it were back in the day any time. Which is why I think things like the Wii are a wonderful compromise.

    H and V shifters

    Okay so I have a question: What is an H and V gate shifter? I am guessing H-pattern is the standard manual gear box and Vertical Gate is some sort of sequential shift but how does it actuate? Do you nudge forwards for each gear you want to go up and nudge backwardds for each gear you want to...

    Thats exactly it, I mean, kids started getting lazy around my generation but I was still waaaaay more active than they are now. When I eventually have kids I plan never to let them have a computer or games consoles in their room and what not. I say plan because you don't know what technology...

    Haha dude, you training him to be a body builder or something? :D I think it's a good thing to be honest, if I could go back many years I would make a lot more effort to be fitter than I was, I mean children these days eat even more crap than we did and I think it's just getting worse. Not...

    Supercharging AND Turbocharging

    Yeah, I've downloaded a couple of videos, it's an amazing sound with its own unique character. I just never realised the first time it came up that it was twincharged..... The entire car and the boat that was made are just beautiful works of engineering art.

    Supercharging AND Turbocharging

    I may have missed something the first time this car, this beautiful work of art came up, but if I am reading the specs right, it is twincharged M62/GT40? http://www.hilmersson-racing.com/start.asp?show=j

    BMW V12 Project

    Yes true but its a good starting point! :D I don't know why but I'd get kicks out of making an engine spin backwards :D Apart from the crank and spark plugs/injector firing order, what else would need to be changed to do such a thing and would it have detrimental affect on the engine? I see...

    BMW V12 Project

    The billet crank won't actually affect the sound unless they changed the firing order or something would it?
