Yeah, nice try again. But you're still forgeting the temperature rise of the air affecting the volume of air as well.

(Quote Sydneykid: What you seem to have ignored is the 1 bar of boost in the RB25DET example, that effectively doubles its air consumption ability. Plus an RB is 90% efficient in its air consumption, so 250 litres per second X 90% = 225 litres per second. So the 0.008 of a second difference in airflow through your super duper inlet system makes SFA difference to the response. Which is what I said in the first place....)

This wasn't about response. It's about the turbo having to spin faster before producing boost, thats rpm closer to the "FAILURE POINT" so if we can spin it slower for the same amount of air, safer for the turbine.

I'm not saying I'll get 220+ at the wheels, it was just raised as a not too far fetched goal to create interest. It was never a proven claim, just an eye opener to what "MAY" be available.

I wasn't aware this was a spelling bee. Want an elephant stamp for that one?

We'll end it there ay, Or should I say you guys will end it there as I know you cant resist having the last word, else you wouldn't be resorting to feeble attempts to insult me because you dont understand the laws of physics.

Maybe It'll work, maybe it wont. But I'm not scared to try something different. My car made (with slight detonation in the top end, Damn townsville air.) 108 RWKW when stock as a rock with even the factory exhaust. I'll let you know how I went, and anything unusual or helpfull along the way.

OMG,

Sprint... For christ sake..

This does not happen UNLESS the turbo was the worse mis-match turbo in history as SK has previously stated.

You need exhaust gases to spin the turbo.

laws of physics.

pfffff as I said previously... You skim read.. lol

Sprint... I think you are a little dense.

You are beginning to make a fool of your self.

    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
