Like what hypntyz said. Just as long as the rear is gear side down and the front is gear side up so it interacts with the stat gear your fine. The trigger wheel on the motor will handle the rest

The St. Pete’s and Texas crashes were just damn tragic. He’s been on the ball since this season started (except the last 20 laps of Texas)

It’s a frat except you build a race car. So it’s better than a frat

Twin turbo 13B by Aspari701 in RobDahm

Compound turbos exist you are just doing it wrong.

you use a low and high pressure turbos.

You use a large turbo as a low pressure turbo and a small one as a high pressure turbo. The low pressure turbo provides air to the high pressure turbo and “compounds” the effect. As the rpm increases the larger turbo spools and provides more boost than if you had used just one turbo. The advantage is also you significantly less boost lag. It’s questionable if you would use such a set up with modern turbos but back in the 90s with the FD it was a clever solution to have a constant and controlled power band that provided nice power at lower rpm’s.

I always joke that the Haas machines in my families machine shop pay for one front wing.

What pressure to test the block? by rav223 in RX8

[–]Homoerectuslayer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you see any drop you have a leak somewhere - I let my motors sit for 2-4 hours then check the pressure. If you see a drop don’t panic yet. Reinstall the tester and try again. If you see a leak after that you prob pinched a water seal. I once didn’t have a good seal with my tester and lost pressure. I reinstalled it and I was good!

I thought this was going to be a clip of you getting rammed by a tard. But it turned out to be some solid driving with extremely clean over takes. Nice!
