so from what i can see, most of the effiencency is basically in the middle. towards the redline, the efficiency goes down to around 65-68%, therefore it heats up the compressed air more and it takes more to compress the air correct?


btw, dont mean to hijack your thread tdid

 

awesome setup, man- it's the kind of setup i wish i could afford right now! *sniff* *sniff*

 

You're on the right track.

 

Doesn't take more - the air is hotter, less dense and more likely to ping...

Good first start - you're ahead of me; I took 6 months to come to grips with it.

 

sweet, thanks, i honestly feel like i learned something. this made my day

should i start a discussion thread for this type of stuff, like how to figure out how much CFM an engine puts out of the exhaust? or no?

 

go here... skip the software stuff and concentrate on the math Chet

thanks. looks like i have 18 pages to read

 

oh yea, i just bought the street turbocharging book and one other.

 

Good Book - why aren't you reading.....

 

cause they have to get shipped here. DUH!!

 

Off topic, but I laugh every time I see your quote.

Where's it from?

 

An Infantry Journal written during WWII - makes sense to me!

 

Wow, the fact that it's real makes it all the better. It reads like a line out of a Mel Brooks film.

 

lol, WWII history is my bible

 

No one wonders why your messed up...we just know that your defective, we lost the recipt...and your warranty expired a long time ago...

 

Yes, the goal is 350 whp for the street and possibly 400 with injection and another EMS...

 

I bought it because I keep ALL my stock parts so I didn't want to tap it for the drain. I have heard 2 other benefits tho. One is the extra capacity and the other is an added cooling effect. I will have to wait to see if there is any additional cooling but I am changing soo much that I probably won't be able to tell anyway.

 

The cooling benefits from this oil pan are probably akin to the rwhp benefits of a lightweight/underdrive pulley kit. Mathematical benefit but hard to measure.

 

Yes, you do and thanks again! Since the picture is back a few posts I will spill the beans. Its a modified oil pressure regulator.

 

Now thats what I'm talking about!!!

 

There are like a hundred smileys... but no drooling smileys....

Well... for effect... I'm drooling..

 

very nice!!!!!!

 

That's a heel of a lot prettier than what's left of my old Turbonetics unit.
Then again, mine been on three cars in something like 8 or 9 different configurations.
At least you've got this to look forward to:

 

Ahh. A coat of paint and a little Windex and she'll be as good as new!

 

Just like Dave's turbo!
