Question Know your stuff under FD hood?

Hello, I know the basics about the two main parts on the 13b FD. The rotary and 2 turbos. What I want to know is anything about what parts connect them all together and just how it functions all as one machine. I would LOVE for someone to drop their MSN messenger adress or their AIM name. I will not bug you every time you get online. Just whenever you wanna talk rotaries. Thanks.

I think he was questioning what the 70 some-odd hoses accomplish.

You said you wanted to know how it worked and functioned all together as one machine. That was one of the easiest to understand articles i've ever read describing it, so i suggested it. If not that, then what exactly, do you want to know.
