This isn't the first time American legislation has done something like this. Look back to about 1972. and then compare the new models for 1970 and 1971 (426 hemi etc.) with those for 1975 and 1976 (176hp Corvette?). THAT is what we have to look forward to. Things are cyclical, and just as...

I used Ebay live chat to inform their CS. It should be pulled shortly. What really concerns me was this guy shows member since 2000 and 100% + feedback. His account has probably been hacked.

I have a 91 LS400 motor in an 82 Supra, and am considering modifying the stock manifolds for forward facing turbo use. But I want them to run forward and up (to keep the AC & Alt.) instead of forward and down. This means the bolt pattern to the head is the reverse of what I need. Looking at...

Quite honestly, I don't know what is realistic or what will work good. I'm trying to learn that. I posted a question in the turbo calculator thread because I'm not sure what RPM to put in the boxes for RPM at max. boost and RPM at min. boost. My primary concern with spool is that power...

I'm new to turbo's so I've been reading tons of stuff over the last few weeks and I've finally figured out the basics of reading these maps, but still not to sure that I am feeding the right numbers into these calculators. Do most of you use .5 BSFC for the 1UZ (I've checked several forums and...

I read somewhere (and can't remember the source) that on the 1UZ the regular injectors aren't used at all until the engine is already running. Which would mean you would not have fuel in the cylinders to start the engine if this injector is unplugged.

The greatest advantage I see to a 3 wheeled setup is the ability to register as a motorcycle, which gets you around a lot of regulations that only apply to 4 wheel vehicles. It's a great solution for home-built electric or alternative fuel vehicles. If I wanted to do this on something with too...

Justen, I do mechanical CAD work all day long. If you get me the info I need to draw it up I would love to help this get into production.
