lol... so I am not the only one who seen that too. Also how you going to afford all this custom work but not have enough to buy a digi? First thing I would have done is buy a camera so I can record the progress.

 

hmm i heard in a magazine i think it was turbo magazine or something like that ' for every pound lost is equal to 1 hp gain' dont kill the messenger LMAO

 

OK for those who can't get it the intake is made up of;
a redline filter pod
titanium intake pipe with OEM rubber hose over the top
and a small water-to-air intercooler RATED for a twin-turbo

Note: NO TURBO'S
It's still running NA through an intercooler designed to cool the air charge down without dropping the pressure too much so I can get more power out of it.
How do you think I could manage twins with compression up that high?!

I live in Australia, and the reason I worry about defects even with the certificates, is that though the mods are OFFICIALLY legal, if the cops here are in a bad mood (frequently), and see 1 thing that's shinier than normal, they'll bust you for it, and go looking around the car for other mods to bust you for. An example is one kid got busted for having a fancy bodykit, because it was "poorly fitted", or one that was in the papers, a guy had just bought a new car and was driving home, got pulled over, and busted for his STOCK foot pedals, his car was impounded because it was "unsafe to drive" barely an hour old!. Also a P plater lost his licence because he had his stereo up too loud! Half the time they don't care about the certs, they're mainly for the RTA so I can keep it registered anyway.

Some of the parts I made the others came from HKS, APEXi, Injen, Top Secret Japan, and a few other places, the bootlid came from precision plastics and composite supplies down the road, made exact to specs.
Personally I swear by the service at Top Secret they'll custom make anything at the highest quality as long as you can afford it, they're pretty much the best parts you can get, especially for Japanese cars. Check them out at www.topsecretjpn.com .(shameless plug there!)

The more power due to weight reduction was a figure of speech, you know what I meant anyway.

Plus I'm concentrating on getting the car up and running for show and go, rather than getting a camera, and how are you meant to take photos to record the progress if it's a sleeper, until I do the interior anyway?!

 

I think it is because where understanding english different. What your trying to say is you have a N/A (natural aspirated) set up with NO turbo's but you have some kind of air intake set up using an intercooler correct?

 

Yep thats right

 

Ok now where getting somewhere......

This is a first for me. I have never heard of anyone using an intercooler on a N/A set up.

Can anyone translate this into HP/TQ?

 

It's not much, about the same as adding a cold air intake kit, just a little bit cooler, probably about 2.5 KW if designed and tuned properly

 

Yeah but I would like to know what it is. You have me curious about your set up and I want to know why you need such large injectors. I can't answer that until I know what that say in HP/TQ.

 

the 1000cc injectors were a bit of an extra, naturally with 2 660cc pumps they're not going to be running at full power, they're more for show off value, the set ups sort of like the MIVEC for cruising only one pump is working and the injectors are working at low power, but on full throttle everything powers up and provides a full flow of petrol, which would drain the tank in a few minutes if I kept it up, it's designed around fuel economy, this way I can be sure that the engine won't be starved at any time, but it won't cost a heap to run either.

 

How do you turn one and off the pumps?
