Can I ask, how did you get the taper of that pipe?


*Might even make a good little article for the home page.

 

[Quaralane]

Cool Chris - this is really cool and I'm sure lots of guys will love to see it. Great work man.

A step by step would be a YES from me - when you have time of course, it's not a huge rush kinda thing - meet your show deadlines first of course.

Hey Ace ...you like the blowers huh !! ;D

Boots ,me ole mucker ...I thought you'd seen all the pics mate ,but glad ya like it matey .

Chris.

;D heck hea man! you can get so... much horsepower from supercharging! i like engines with the huge blowers sticking out of the hood, some of those superchargers can increase horsepower over 50% and the great thing about supercharger vs Turbo.. horsepower is instantaneous... no matter how much boost you want, when you want it, its right there when you step on the gas, not a few seconds later when the exhaust is finally creating enough back pressure to get the turbos to spool up! and i truly believe you can get more horsepower with a blower.

Blower>>Turbocharger

 

[Chris S]

I didnt get anything done yesterday ....a bit unwell Nevermind , I've got the seat and tunnel all scratched ,again using the trusty litho plate ...really is handy stuff ,I'd be stuck without it ...lol
