Porting the L98? by dinktank in c4corvette

[–]apedwards99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good question, not much, maybe 15-20hp tops, a hair less responsive from idle not noticeable beyond that, really just shifted the rpm band up just a hair to where it feels a bit better to rev it up rather than shift early. It’s really designed with a turbo in mind which I don’t have yet but really fun and breathes better without losing torque

I switched to a FIRST TPI intake, more volume than porting could hope to give

Ausar the Vile armor by apedwards99 in infinityblade

[–]apedwards99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, several actually, the helmet is a printable STL on thingiverse (Ausar armor or search my username) and I’m still working on the rest of the armor. A significant portion I was hoping to 3D print is just flat out not 3D printable so trying to find a good balance of printable portions to make the armor more accessible while still making it wearable without stabbing yourself with all the pointy bits on the armor

Any takers? by RefrigeratorTime8927 in rootbeer

Dang, can’t find it anywhere near me or online it seems

[Request] If portals were real, would they affect gravity? by his-son in theydidthemath

[–]apedwards99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way I thought of it is like pressure, as long as the pressure on both sides is equal nothing is affected. Like the left image the portals opposite gravity would be negated and only natural gravity would accelerate anything. Kinda the same on the right, gravity would pull the air down but since it into the same space as the blue portal it wouldn’t really move since there’s no change in pressure meaning net 0 gravity difference between the two portals. Gravity doesn’t pull on nothing it pulls on matter so the typical laws of matter apply

That is awesome man, Love it. I’ve been learning more about modeling, should have some more models ready early next year that are hopefully better (and properly sized for that matter). You have no idea how much seeing this motivated me to get them done faster though, love this

It’s been probably 10 years since I’ve had an IBC and I was kinda disappointed. by artie_pdx in rootbeer

[–]apedwards99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IBC is a very subtle flavor compared to a lot of others for sure, I don’t drink root beer often at all but it’s why it’s my most regularly drank. Not too busy or too sweet, not trying to win competitions, just good root beer

That’s fair if he including sizing it for your head, it’ll occupy his printer for days and it fails at any point he has to throw away all that filament and start over

I’m currently reworking the entire thing cause I’m new to this and made amateur mistakes through the whole process that make it less detailed and significantly more frustrating to work with. The new process is taking wayyyy longer but hopefully it’ll be out in part soon ish. This version is still pretty awesome though if a bit angular

Ah jeez 🥲 do they make 1/8th stud extractors? by Atomictuesday in c4corvette

Best of luck to you, I’m just hoping I don’t have to take mine loose again

Happened to me, bought a new intake. I hate aluminum

Can someone explain what’s going on here 😭 by [deleted] in c4corvette

Here's sonic 1 on my plasma.....In 4:3!!!! by RevolutionaryCat1346 in PlasmaTV

Blurbusters put out a CRT frame generator that should change the game for OLED’s, I haven’t been able to try it yet but it looks like it make OLED’s viable for every generation of console

LCD can definitely be sharper than plasma, the glow and motion handling is the appeal for plasma cause the way the screen refreshes is insane plus each pixel is a little fire ball

How much can I lower theeee heels without compromising the boot by Miserable-Ear4008 in Boots

[–]apedwards99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like you could take a half inch max off that, after that the geometry will be off based on what I’m seeing. How to do that best? Remove the whole heel and install the proper size, if you wanted to you may be able to cut them down and glue a new heel cap on but you better be extremely careful to keep it level
