The Schwartz is strong with this one, bring the popcorn ... there is potential developing here :laugh:

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
|
Mmmmmmmm. Eaton + GT3076R on a 1.8L Toyota engine (the blue lines) over 400 whp and look at that torque curve.
The yellow line same setup, but just a GT3076R and running a bit higher pressure IIRC http://www.monkeytuner.com/forum/dow...5197&mode=view |
Darn, pic no worky.
And I missed that 3.5K price for that 170WHP and 250+ F IATs. When that will get you a good turbo kit or a Rotrex. Wow. |

EGT dropped 40* with the 5th injector!

I wish I was going to be measuring EGT when I cook with corn. That is probably something to talk/write about.
|
superchargers, 5th injectors, signal modifiers, egt probes.... welcome to 1979

Which one of you is Quickkid80 :rofl:
Know what else is great? When detonation happens, EGTs drop. :rofl: |

I personally know two people with motors destroyed with the FFS system, not people I've heard of but people I've met. For those keeping score that's two out of three. Not great odds on a system that's advertised as plug and play and dead reliable.
|
i know 15 of you idiots that have blown turbo motors...
|
lol@tim
|
I find it hard to believe that there is much value in anyone entertaining this bullfuck.
Endless Rube Goldberg band-aids does not a system make, imo. |
lol@rubegoldberg comment
|
Should we discuss:
1. How they all swear by "dumb" knock boxes that don't detect detonation except where you tune them to detect it 2. How their customers think that forged pistons and stock rods are the correct way to build motors because "all i need is a little detonation resistance" (ironically the first intelligent thing they've ever said) Sometimes I cry at night. |
I couldn't wait any longer. I'm back in.

Just in case anyone was on the fence regarding Tom's intelligence:

allright ive gotta go see this

I'm pretty much dumbfounded that people are running 200+whp on superchargers with "5th-injectors" and still have running vehicles. I know Tanner is doing this without issue but that defies logic for my pea-sized brain.

Sixshooter for President! That guy is brilliant.

I would still be curious what the IATs were instead of the EGTs since only one of the pair induces the spontaneous fracture of ringlands. |
ugh, socal pat is so fucking stupid it hurts my head.

Then again 95% of the purchasers will be doing street duty. Here is one you might know. It's aFFS kit chasing down and passing Black Jesus (Hustler) http://www.youtube.com/user/tanman31.../1/cU_WJiOf-08

I am running larger injectors, 315cc/min, as well as the 5th injector as supplemental fuel. Not the most ideal setup, but it works. :jerkoff: |

I would get in a boatload of trouble for posting this, so will someone else do it for me: Also ask which FFS kit uses 315cc injectors, and 4gph of water injection for me. :jerkoff: WTF is this guy talking about Hustler was pull on him all the fucking time :vash: EDIT: I think Im gonna get a warning :laugh: |

Maybe. Should be good for a couple day vacation at least.

And if I recall the thread here correctly Hustler stomped his ass on the straights... and did major suspension/alignment corrections shortly after. |

Well, if we can't talk sense into Tom and the followers, at least we can accomplish something by getting every derelict, misleading thread closed.

So is it time to make fun of Hustlers driving yet? I do enjoy how easily he pulled away each straight.... Drag racer :p
