with pressure backing up the air, is turbulence really an issue? It should just help mix up the air.

(could be wrong)

Rotary Shack makes a very similar box.

 

There is still only a limited time for the air to "fill" the combustion chambers so the more efficiently(smoothly) you can get the air into the combustion chamber the better. That's why port/polish helps even on Turbos

 

beautiful setup dude....not as expensive as i presumed it would be! i have a little question whats the difference between blowthru and drawthru?

 

man i am so happy everyone likes me setup, ive got 2 weeks till appleblossom and HOPEFULLY im getting my downpipe/wastegate dump made later this week

all i need to do now is tap my front cover and hook up my custom ss braided oil lines

 

whoops, i forgot, i still need a locked advance dizzy

 

Why did you use a modded nikki instead of looking for a used carb setup like mikuni, weber, or holley? The only reason I ask is because the CFM on a stock nikki is only 313cfm. After modding the most you can flow through it is about 345cfm. A small holley such as the racing beat holley is rated at 465 CFM. A lot more hp to be gained. anyway just my curiosity?

 

This is cool because today I finished putting my Wastegate together with my Exhaust Manifold and I tapped into my Oil pan and installed my Oil Return Line with AN fittings. I also removed my entire exhaust system, so now I'm ready for the Downpipe and new exhaust to be run. I also removed my Fuel tank and plan on running NEW lines from the tank back. I'm looking at being able to run my 7 around a month from now.

Your Rex looks cool and It makes me work even harder on mine.

wow, back from the dead, lol. I dont even own this car anymore

 

wat do u mean u dont own it?

 

i mean i couldnt title the car and had to part it out and scrap the shell

i sold the turbo but ive still got all the other goodies for sale

 

What was it that kept you from titling it? Must have been serious to have to scrap the whole project.

Did you ever get a chance to run it any?

Damn, this wasn't the resolution to this thread I was hoping for. Fooey!

 

DrawThrough puts the Carb on the Intake side of the Turbo/Super charger. The charger sucks (draws, hence the name) air through the carb.

Problem is, now you have a fuel/air mixture, so you can't use an intercooler... If the fuel condenses or collects on the walls of the intercooler piping, A.) It's not getting into the engine. B.) It's a fire/explosion hazard.

However it doesn't require boost prepping the carb. I don't seen why anyone would make this kinda trade though... Cheaper I guess...


BlowThrough puts the carb on the intake manifold like it's supposed to be. The Turbo/Super charger Blows into it. You can put an intercooler in there if you want because everything coming outta the charger is just hot air. It doesn't get mixed with fuel till it hits the carb.

Problem is, now you have to boost prep the carb. Carb wasn't designed to handle greater than atmospheric air pressure. More costly, but much more potential power.

 

well i bought the car from a guy, he was "waiting on the title" (lets just say i wont fall for that one ever again) and he never came through with the title, he skipped town, i did however manage to to track the title down from the dealership he bought the car, unfortunatley it was unsigned and he like i said had moved and skipped town and was untraceable

there for leaving me fucked wiht a car i spent well over 3 grand into and no able to register it

oh well life goes on

just wait you will soon see turbogsl-segregs in the near future

 

that blows *** man.

Dealing with simmilar problem right now. Other then on mine the guy gave me the title, just didn't sign/notorize it. So... i can't get it titled/liscenced. And i didn't even catch it until i went to the courthouse to try and get everything squared away so i could start driving it.

sorry bout the bad luck man my location would be in his back seat ducked down with strangling rope ready to jump the **** out

 

Sorry dude but I gotta break out the

 

now ya gotta back it up with numbers carl! lets hear it

 

and the banana man jumps to the rescue of the nikki

 

damn back from the dead threadjackers!

 

that blows,all that work to get screwed!

 

Ehh as far as I've heard, "modded" nikki's flow 430 or even more....

that's about the same as the holley...

 

yes you are correct mireck, however i will never attempt a blowthrough project again, they just arent as practical and streetable as an EFI setup

 

how much for the modded nikki?

 

Dude,
look at the date.

 

wtf brought from the dead.......
