I was wondering if anyone could tell me where I could get one of these funnel looking cones that is in the picture below. It is not for my car, acutally its not for a car at all, its just to channel/funnel the air for a jet turbine engine. I figured that the people on the RX-7 forum would have lots of experience with insane power, as I have seen, so I am asking here. If anyone could tell me if you know where to get these, please reply. See the pic below.

The pics you have are from a HKS kit. I would imagine you have to get them made custom for every application...

 

Idunno...no filter....

 

I can get you one for a jet engine since the company which makes them is a client of mine. They are about $1million each, but come painted to match your 737, 747, 757 or whatever you plan to use this for.

p.s. they are good for about 30-60 thousand pounds of thrust. If you have a 777, then they are good for 90-115 thousand pounds of thrust. Each.

 

I realize you are playing around, but he is talking about building a turbo as a turbine engine.

At least someone understands where I am going with this. Thakns.

 

Thats pretty cool. i have been wanting to build one for a few years.. Just havn't had the time or a junk turbo to use..


Post up if the funnel actually helps. I am sure people would be interested in knowing.


Summit sells a 3 inch velocity stack that would work.. let me see if i can find it..

BTW not sure of the actually size. You might want to check..

Yeah, I was just playing around about the jet inlet (although I really can get you one) but the following statement:
"he is talking about building a turbo as a turbine engine"
makes no sense because a turbo as we use it in our cars is vastly different than a turbine engine.

Daniel - what is it that you are trying to do? Are you building your own turbine engine? If so ... cool.

 

it was actually dubbed a turbo jet engine

So you can see...
