when i bent my exhaust?

backed into a parking spot, went to drive forward to straighten up, car wouldnt go anywhere, got out n had a look, the back of the cars bumbper and exhaust had gone into the garden a bit, so the exhaust was catching on the kerb when I went to drive forward. I tried driving off on an angle, but it still wouldnt move, so i tried a "little harder" and it moved off, but bent the exhaust pipe upwards, the tip now melts the back bumper, and the exhuast sounds different.

Am getting it fixed monday

i have a really funny story to tell!!

My parents have this big block with an old house on it .... the old house they rent out and they've divided the block in two halfs ... one half has the old house and garden etc and then theres a fence and the back half they've left as bush for now (going to develop it one day)

Anyway somehow ... think by cigerette thrown over fence ... the bush block caught on fire! .... so the old guy renting the place rang the firebrigade and rang my mum.

My mum arrived and one of the FF's jumped over into the bushland block and started putting the fire out ..... it was a fairly small scrub fire so didnt take long and he goes "OMG ....*insert other Fireys name here ... for sake of story call him Bob come and look at this" So bob jumps the fence and bursts out laughing and he goes to my mum "Love how open minded are you - do you get offended easily?" My mums like "Nah nothing phases me" So out of the bush this firey pulls out this huge strap on dildo! ... apparently theres been some people squatting there - there was a matteress and some clothes and this huge dildo haha ...... mum then went down to the police station to report it and she goes to the police lady "oh there were some personal effects left there" and the lady goes "Like what? a wallet" and mum goes "Um nooo more like a strap on vibrator" haha

i would love to go to Spain - actually considering studying spanish for a while .... after all its the second most spoken language :D

oh and the firefighters took the dildo with them when they left - um disgusting!

    • This is what the look like normally. Except we only got the 2 doors locally
    • Back pressure is not really a function of the exhaust itself, but the turbine/housing. So the question/point remains valid. I would be fitting an EMAP tapping point and seeing what is going on in the exhaust manifold before committing to throwing boost at it. Flow. No intercooler is actually rated for continuous operation at any power level wrt temperatures, as they are no actually capable of shifting the required amounts of heat on a continuous basis. They get hot during a pul, then dump some of that heat into the external air (and some back into the internal air) during off load moments/periods). You probaby do need a bigger core, given the power level you're already at is somewhat above the "rating" of the cooler. Put pressure tapping points either side of the core (which possibly you already have, if you have a boost source near the compressor outlet and tapping near the throttle for existing purposes) and report on delta P across the core.   I haven't done the mass flow calculation to see where you would be sitting on the compressor map at the ~450is rwkW level we're talking here, but if you look just at the PR you're running at, which is ~2.8-2.9, then you have a really really wide swath of the compressor map to run in, and so long as you were making between about 45-75 lb/min of flow, you should have really good comp efficiency, with the ideal being betweem 55 and 65. I can't see the need to shift drastically on the map to get better results.
    • Welcome 🙂 The ER34 wheels and slight lowering suit the R33 sedan really well. I'm firmly in the 'keep it stock, at least on the outside' camp.
    • Do this, and we'll have a resource right here.
    • "Hybrid" is a meaningless term. I could not tell you what the vendor of that turbo means by "hybrid".
