    Short runner manifold

    Hey Chris, Yes I more or less was, but you're adressing a problem that is fixed by the way you describe, and I wasn't. a correct placed injector facing the intake valve up-close is better able to provide low and midrange torque then an upstream mounted one, unless you have a problem in that...

    Short runner manifold

    CJ I understand what you're saying in the first bit, but the part about injectors moving further from the intake ports has to do with atomisation at high rpm, it defenatly doesn't aid Low or midrange torque at all. there are several motorcycles like the MV augusta's that have 8 injectors, in in...

    Please help before I drive my FI SC400 into a lake and leave it for dead!

    What ECU, the build up page says something about 315cc injectors, those seem a little on the low side for what you're trying, if running the stock ecu, ditch it and put a programmable one on, opens up a whole new can of HP worms. doesn't have to be one for a motec buget btw. (for the...

    Twin M45 charged 1uzfe project taking shape

    Hey trev, that's what I was thinking about the tig welding stuff. there's apperently "well enough for home use" inverters enough for sale at the moment, I'm looking at a Rehman Item, but have been offered a Miller synchrowave 275 also, which costs twice as much as the rehman.... decisions...

    Twin M45 charged 1uzfe project taking shape

    Hey John, thanx for the compliments, I feel the need to say a thing about that btw. it's not that hard to do all this, and I don't at all have fancy or expensive tools to do so, I bought the Lathe I made the alloy stuff on, 3 weeks back and before that I had never touched one. same goes...

    Twin M45 charged 1uzfe project taking shape

    hey all Some time spend in the garage again this week, a bunch of little things taken care of, and a few big problems solved. I have finaly got hold of some tubes that take the laminova cores, with a little help from an englishman in australia they even got over here in holland. here´s one...

    Short runner manifold

    it sure is! you said something about the injectors needed to come back 2mm, and that won;t affect the seal, I have small clearance problem also in that area, are you planning on laying down into the valley or do you make them more upright? the extra 4mm would do it for me, but won't the angle...

    Short runner manifold

    looking at it, I wonder if you won't get into trouble on the length of the runners and them being equal, since the headports are further appart than the 2 by 2 holes in the flange you have, and you plan on very short runners..... argghh what am i saying you'll get around it, but it won't be...

    Short runner manifold

    Ah justin you're skipping the crossover, so tube 1 to 4 if the upperintake manifold that normally go towards the opposing side 1 to 4 cylinders won't in your installation, instead they stay on that side of the engine, smart idea to get shorter runners! I thought of something similar (with a...

    intercooling the richwood manifold

    Nah the stock laminova cores will not fit the richwood manifold, the tube cores are 40cm long without the water system on them. I allready thought of that but helas! looking forward hearing Jake! grtz Thomas

    intercooling the richwood manifold

    Jake you're right the laminovas are the tube type thingy's can you perhaps measure the incomming air with a sensor mounted somewhere in the tubing (easy to mock-up for testing only)? this is vital to knowing the efficiency of the intercooler, I've also seen pretty good measurements made with a...

    intercooling the richwood manifold

    Hey Jake, can you do measurements on the car when the IC in normal action? I'm not after results with Ice bags in watertanks etc etc etc, because it doesn't give a clear result on how th IC performs in real life. airflow (or an estimate based on power presure revs etc etc) Air-in: temp...

    intercooling the richwood manifold

    The anmount of energy removed from the entering air exeeds the power a peltier or even a whole bunch of them can make 100dreds of times when you want 40degrees of at 600CFM so Peltier is an absolute no go unless you want to stick an extra 1uzfe in the trunk to power the generator for the peltier...
