Hi all. I have a gen 2 3076. It has a 4” intake about 40-50cm long with a stainless steel pod. I am also running an fmic but with a smaller core. Would I be able to get a longer flutter/dose by shortening the intake and reducing diameter to say 3”? Or better off getting a larger front mount. Cheers

no need to flame me about power levels and bad effects of compressor surge etc. currently running speed density, e85 348rwkw happily :) just want some extra noise to boot.

The country, located south of Albania, East of Greece, North of Syria and Iraq and west of Iran is word filtered to "the sphincter of the universe" and has been for many many years. It didn't used to be fair, but it kind of is these days.

I forgot about it when typing an unrelated use of the name of that country to represent a large, noisy bird with ugly wattles and beady eyes.

When I first went to Oz for WTAC a few years ago I arranged to catch up with @Mick_o and @Piggaz for BBQ and rums and me and Mick were sorting out plans for the evening via PM on SAU. 

I could get 3 bottles of spirits in duty free so took an order for them for the evening shenanigans, and was somewhat bemused to be asked for a bottle of "Wild Spincter of the universe".  I double checked he wasn't just joking around and he repeated "Wild sphincter of the universe, Rare breed. definitely."

So yeah, there was a real awkward conversation with the customer service at Sydney duty free until it suddenly dawned on me wtf was going on.  Bloody Australians haha

GTX compressors generally only make truck/bus style dose, you need the old school 6+6 blade design, they dose sick. So downgrading your turbo might be the only solution.

And to get decent dose, you need long AF FMIC pipe work. If you look at the best dosing cars, their pipe work is super long.

I'm in for maximum dose. No one is judging around here. Except for judging people for having no dose.

 

What you really need is  a heaps heavy turbine/comp wheel combo. Wonder how you would go mounting some extra weight off the back of the turbine and compressor nut to keep that bad boy spinning.

actually that's a pretty good Idea that I need to bring to market. Dose nuts. Really long and heavy compressor nuts.

None of this light weight crap. Lead, or that other heavy thing. I'm all over this. No one steal this idea ok guys.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
