My Renesis 1/2 bridgeport wouldn't brap so I did this little modification :





and now it does :

interesting

 

Well ............... if you go to the trouble of a making it a bridgeport (that makes no power) it should at least BRAP ! Otherwise there really is no point .

Not disagreeing with ya ....

 

Yeah, I’m saying the same thing with out the “otherwise”

 

N/a

 

 

 

I thought we could all be adults have a meaningful discussion about why the braphole causes brap!

 

I actually don't run it like this myself , it's just something that happened when i was playing with ideas . Vacuum is around -9psi from memory .

Would you believe I've had several people come to me wanting their bridgeport to brap? They don't even care about fuel mileage or that fact they lost power . They just want it the BRAAAAAAAPP!!!!!!!

 

Brap and shoot flames

 

What I hated most about my bridge was the surge up the secondaries. It made the SSV rattle like it was dead, and made it stick from all the oil and fuel deposited on it from the surge. Had to tear it down and clean the assemble once or twice a year. I never recommend a bridge to anyone.

I can't wait to pull that motor and stuff the 20b in.

 

This mod actually stops that rattle as well as creates the brap . So that's actually two benefits

 

yeah 9in/hg ...it's lucky i don't drive around at idle

But brake booster performance def. did take a hit .

 

BrappSpeed FTL

 

Hmmmm ...found a better way to do it !

 

so whats the new method?

 

I did this mod for my half bridge and it did not make any difference. I was using it for the rattle that goes along with the bridge, but it still rattles something fierce. Honestly, I think it brapped more without the mod, but that was not the reason for trying this method at all. I must say that I got excited when I saw this, but after using a spare SSV for the attempt, I couldnt help but notice that the holes drilled only allowed the air to push back into the corresponding port. So I dont see how this would make any difference, but I already had the holes drilled, so I tried it anyway. Back to the drawing board I guess
