Stock exhaust and 20hp on a 300whp car? No shit. I put down 291whp with a stock DX exhaust then did a full 3\" exhaust and put down 319. This on an H22 GT35R. However, same car put down 316 with a 2.5\" exhaust. No real difference. Still had a 3\" downpipe and cat though. -Michael

A lot of local laws stipulate that it must exit behind the rear bumper on a car. I've had a few American friends who have had their vehicles towed because it was deemed unsafe for this reason. Most of my cop friend have mentioned that they pull over young people with loud exhausts but leave people a...

I go to 10k very regularly and the oxygen up there is just fine. Also go to 13,500 and the oxygen up there is OK as well. Last year I went to 16,500 and when I was getting ready to jump I could feel a little hypoxia starting to set in... The boost retard you're thinking of is only a math calculation...

I just build a nice 3\" exhaust with enough resonators and mufflers that I don't get bothered. I don't like e-cutouts. They are dangerous on a few levels and they're obnoxious. I've seen the undercoating catch fire on a car with a cutout and I do know it can be unsafe from the COx emissions inside t...

The best way to do it is actually a DC->RPM table with a CLT modifier. You can usually get away with skipping the CLT modifier. So basically if the ECU determines the engine is -5 and sets a target idle RPM of 1500 then it looks up 1500 and knows that it requires approx 68% DC to achieve that so tha...

I have an H22 with the fast idle valve bypassed and it does exactly the same thing as yours. A little annoying... -Michael

I ended up ordering a scat from xenocron. It's american made so I hope it's better than something done in China. Will let you know when she's back together and on the dyno. -Michael

His failure was due to an underdrive pulley I never thought to check for. I didn't do the original build. I've seen this a good 1/2 dozen times. Replace with an OEM pulley it lasts for years. In his case he absolutely wants the best stuff available. -Michael

Just found that scat makes cranks too. A lot of engine builders seem to find them more consistant than the eagle products. I may opt for that one instead. -Michael

Anyone used Eagle Cranks?

I'm rebuilding a dart block. The oil pump exploded on the dyno (at only 486whp). Unfortunately it fucked up the crank. I proposed to the client that maybe we should put in an Eagle crank. Then I asked around and a few people have said that they're not even as good as the OEM honda cranks. I've never...

When the fuel prices were up I had a stream of people who had ideas from pumping water into a generator and using that to power the pump to other assorted whacky things that could never work. The biggest thing you have to keep in mind is the first law of thermodynamics. Energy cannot be created nor ...

Holy crap guys! A GT35R on a B16 spools by 5500 and that's with the 0.82 AR housing. Ask me - I did it once. The 2871R is a nice street choice and you will be well into boost by 3500. They start falling out of the sweet spot around 350whp. According to garrett you can make a max of 460bhp but that's...

Maybe look at the algorithm. Perhaps it is redrawing everything when you select cells, so if there are 25 cells selected it redraws 25 times or something slow like that. It's a laptop with a not very fast graphics card. -Michael
