If you going to compare them directly, let's compare it psi for psi. Stephanie |
I saw that earlier, I'm quivering with anticipation.
|
One side of this argument will never run out of hot air to blow.
|
I want to meet Tom so I can tell him hes a piece of shit
|
It's a shocking revelation that doubling the boost adds 30hp. I would not have suspected that at all!
|
Corky dropped some math on Tom late last night...curious to see if Tom responds today.

Just read Corky's post; im awaiting on the bs response involving the magic of the 5th injector.

E-Cool hugh. I did not know that TBI 305s were such amazing performance monsters.

GM has had some really great ideas and some bad ones. TBI too me is sort of the result of carb people going to EFI.
"We really dont want to do 6 or 8 of these damned things, they are epensive. Plus we dont have an intake setup for them yet. But we can bolt this POS here onto damn near any 4150 style intake!" |
My '85 4runner has a 5th injector.
|
Lots of the TRD supercharged Tacomas/4 Runners do too. TRD sells a complete kit.

Tom bragging about making 170whp at 10psi makes me lol so hard. I really want to comment on how the 1.6 Rotrex prototype is making like ~155-160whp at 5-6psi.
|
my 1.6L is making 165rwhp (dyno dynamics) at 9psi, on a $175 turboz.

oh well.

Is anyone else interested in seeing a few more setups with a coldside 45 or 62 and a 3071? Puley the blower for about 8 psi and watch the 3071 act like a 2560. I wonder if the blower would become a restriction? On one hand I doubt it considering that with a PD blower it will just get better filling on the inlet side, but I am not sure.
Funny stuff on blowers lately. I saw a traditional centrifugal setup for a bit more $ than a Rotrex kit off Kraftwerks. They claimed 205 crank HP while making 165WHP, and they ran 10 psi to get it as well IIRC. If these cars have an 18% driveline loss I will be VERY surprised. My guess is more like 12% with a Torsen. |
HOLY SHIT 3 and a half grand for 170whp??!!! FUCKKKKKK where do I sign up for this phenomenal piece of technology
