Guess you'll have to try to keep up with my team-mate's Sol, then, B...

Dark Sol's Engine Bay
Dark Sol's Custom Manifold (Full Race copy)
Rear
Dyno



He's run plenty of 12's, and a handful of 11's.... Hasn't quite gotten the hang of launching the car, yet. That's all motah, no gas, too.

Hey Brian

I was reading page 14 about how your intercooler was hanging down too much on the right side (bov side) and how you were gonna clock the turbo up a little more to fix that problem. Well I have the same problem except the right side of my intercooler is alittle too high and the left side is hanging down. Just wondering if clocking your turbo up a little was what fixed your problem and if you think clocking mine down will help level my intercooler out. It's not terribly unlevel but it's kinda bothering me. I would just go into my garage and check but I'm at work right now.

 

[posol]

i re-mounted the entire thing and cut more of my front end./bumper support to raise it up

 

[NotUrAverage_Si]

Oh.

Well I'll try the turbo clocking anyway when I get home and see if it helps out at all. If not then I'll have to think of something else.

Or maybe I'll just take a hammer to the front bumper support.

 

[posol]

just cut it out

depends on how big the IC is, you can just mount it below it.

 

[NotUrAverage_Si]

I fixed it, it looks alot better now.

 

[asmallsol]

b, now that your car might actually be able to accelerate now, you will soon need a cage.

This maybe

did he forget some mounts?

 

[90 accord]

he doesnt have an intercooler either?

 

[Battle Pope]

why in the name of the baby jesus did he mount the motor sideways?

he does, but it's an air to water intercooler. Alot of full drag cars do it that way. I am guessing areodyanmics would be also be better.

He runs a dry sump, so it does run, and it defently runs. I have seen it run 9's in vids.

 

[posol]

ok, so even if he can get the oil up with the sump... if it sits like that, the lube on the top of the pistons is lacking at best, and it screams "leak out my exhaust valves"

Maybe im missing something, but i see the compressor go straight to the TB, I see no air to water in there.

Not really....Alot of engines are slanted, or completely horizontally opposed...most aircraft piston engines are flat 4 bangers up to 6 cyls on some....if he did the internal head work and has enough angle to let the oil flow back to where it needs to go...I don't see why it wouldn't work.

not to mention, subaru, volkswagen, porsche, even the ferrari 512 (testarossa) was a flat 12
