There are still a few things I need to work out:
1) How do I get the CFI aircleaner to fit in a way that hides this plumbing?
2) Does anyone make a V-band clamp that will bolt an exhaust header to a CFI throttle body?
3) What pinion angle should I use in my rear-end? I’m sure there will be a noticeable difference in torque output.



1-hes wants to clean exhaust fumes huh? sound slike he needs a cat in between the header and the intake, lol. NEVER though i'd say that, EVER

2- you can buy those at any local parts store of course...they just keep those hidden in the super-secret back room.

3- i think he'll make more torque then those guys runnin them sweet electric turbo's. i'd be scared to have that much power. seriously, i would.


i cant belive someone like that had enough brains to know how to type that out. or breath for that matter. somebody deserves a cookie

What I'm guessing is that he actually tried it, but messed up the plumbing and connected the exhaust to the HVAC air intake. I mean, the guy's gotta be breathin' SOMETHING..

Brings a whole new definition to EGR.



On a side note, Germans are coming up with an engine that injects steam into the cylinders on every other stroke (opposite of a gas charged one) to create better fuel efficiency.

I saw this on Jalopnik earlier today and thought of posting it here.  I'm thinking he just wants attention and isn't serious, but I could be wrong.  Makes me proud to be a Nebraskan with profound thinkers like that (if he's serious)
