    EMS makes MAGIC MUMBO !
  1. The setup in mine does heaps of things.... So yes it's developed further, but not much 'real' interest in the product when I did ask... Pretzel
  2. No, they aren't just able to be taken off, turned around, and bolted back down. The holes don't line up. It is possible to turn the centre section, although it requires cutting, welding, filling gaps, die grinding etc.... It's time consuming though, and not worth the hassle when there are off the shelf ones available.

    Sort of.... The compression of the air causes heat (A byproduct) that the intercooler is then trying to bring back down to ambient (By heat transfer to the air around it) Heat soak happens when the amount of heat the cooler can continuously dissipate is less than what it takes from the compressed air.... then the cooler heats up and is almost useless until it substantially cools down again...
  4. I think you'll find the Wog was being sarcastic about the 270rwkw..... Especially considering he didn't bring it up.... You do know what sarcasm is ? 300+ is also definately possible(And has been seen by others), but of course you won't believe that !
  5. I think you might find he means the weight of the clutch itself is heavy... The lighter the rotating bits are, the quicker they spin up !

    But how can people be so happy..... What he is doing is not possible.... He is sucking you all in..... You can't get that much power with: Standard Injectors..... Standard Valve springs...... Standard Fuel Pump...... Standard Exhaust....... You are all fools !!! Or.... Is that all the doubters of the wog are now being proven as fools !!

    Reckon a stock XR6T or SS could lap bathurst for 8 hours at flat chat? That'd be one hell of a durability test...great for associated manufacturers credibility Lumpy <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No problem..... after the first half a dozen laps, the brake shudder would be that bad you would have to cruise around for the rest of the race......

    I agree Make them race them as they come. Like it used to be, drive to the track, change tyres, go racing for the day, drive home if nothing went wrong !

    Do you really think those vehicles are 'off the showroom floor' ? I can tell you they are not, and the racing is butchered to make it close !! I was involved in that category a few years ago (When it was still Procar), with a car that got more and more restrictions (Read weight added, and rev limit reduced) until the other cars in the class became competative ! There was no point in pushing the car to only be more and more slowed down !
  11. Geez.... I'd be a bit careful making comments like that with the wog makig a visit !!!

    Hey Macka, You know they will say that the dyno reads high don't you ?
  13. umm youre contradicting yourself there. Isnt the front as simple as removing the strut, compress the spring, unscrew top mounting plate, take off spring, compress new spring (with spring compressor clamps) and put on, screw the top plate back on, take off spring compressors and put strut back in. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There's no contradiction as far as I can see There is the two parts, the spring and the strut..... Earlier falcons struts expanded to maximum when unbolted, the BA's struts when unbolted shrink (Pull in to minimum length) making the requirement to compress the springs a lot further to get the top back on. But whatever..... as long as you have spring compressors you will work it out !
  14. The front is the problem, the strut/shock works in reverse to normal, remove it and it compresses (Not expands) so you need to be able to compress the front springs to get the top back on ! Otherwise you'll be in trouble !
  15. Thanks Matt, This is a smaller footprint than what I was currently using, I'll look into pricing. Pretzel
