  1. I think everyone already covered what I was gonna say, but yeh I think the sealed box around the carb is the cheapest option, however ya will still need to make sure fuel pressure is higher than boost. There are carbs that are designed for boost, or atleast modified for it floating around, and they probably dont cost too much 2nd hand if ya know where to look.
  2. Am keen however I'm not sure if I can get work off. Will try though. Have plenty of room to take people/bullshit if needed if I can make it. Can supply gasbottle for a bbq aswell. Mobil = Free LPG haha
  3. Doesnt look that pretty but reduces turbulance or something Edit;
  4. If anyone can convince me to go I have room to take a few ppl
  5. Haha wheel C-a is tiny as, wheel C-b is at top of page, is slightly worse than B So far the wheels at $44. Homos bidding on stuff that I want.
  6. Was fully gonna host an OTP on the 4th, but dont wanna double book stz. Could be keen to rock down to this but that would mean gettin work off so I can leave early enough.
  7. Mad, might stop by n see whats up
  8. What difference does a 2 chamber one make?
  9. Nah no bosskit, just the wheel.
  10. Next question; How much is wheel A worth? So far my bid is at $30, and someones topped it. Keep going? Or can I get similar from elsewhere?
  11. Theres hardly any oldschool style wheels on trademe, they are all cheap momo knockoffs. Fucking wack imported shit.
  12. This was gonna be option C But thought that was just a bit too far out...
  13. Fuck you're a piece Ben. I don't recall referring to your car, or anything else to do with you, at all.
  14. This post has no relevance anymore. It was once about a steering wheel. I need a new steering wheel.
  15. Haha yeah I know its pointless, especially as I'll prob have it goin most of the time anyway, but I just wanna be able to do it. Also wouldnt havin the blower switchable on a drawthru work better? coz ya dont need to worry about fuel pressure and all that? And who needs head gaskets?
  16. Blowthru needs a bit of extra crap like fuel pressure regulators, better fuel pumps n whatnot, which is why I was thinkin of going with the drawthru setup. However I sorta want an intercooler as I'm thinkin of runnin around 8-9psi, but intercoolers dont work on drawthru as the fuel just ends up condensing in them. So I'm still a bit undesided on the matter
  17. Haha vent your wastegate into an airhorn!
  18. For a blowthrough ya need a wastegate, coz unlike a turbo, the blower keeps spinning with the engine even if ur foots not on the gas. Havin a blower spinnin at 7000 odd rpm into a closed throttlebody/carb means a big big big fat build up of pressure, which will most likley pop something. Or just give you one hell of a surge when ya hit the gas again.
  19. So this is what I'm thinking. Drawthrough setup, carb feeds the blower, feeds the engine. Also as the blower has an electronic clutch, Ima have a switch on the dash to turn it on and off, mad max styles, so will also have a bypass valve from the carb straight to the intake manifold for when the charger's off. Heres a very (very) shit diagram of what I'm on about. Don't laugh. Oi, I said dont laugh! Anyway, any ideas, suggestions, recomendations, insults, whatever are welcome. ie. type of carb to use, wtf I could use as a valve etc. Cheers boes
  20. Months time, 4th Aug, shud give me time to get a few cars goin and tidy the garage.
  21. So sometime around 3 weeks from now is good? Like the 28th or something?
  22. Haha yeah fucking prick. Bike prob got stolen at the same time too. It takes nowhere near an hour to walk to town, but then who would really care, theres ducks to chase on the way!!
  23. Plenty of room to crash here aswell, got a few spare blankets/bags and mattresses
  24. We gots a big ass driveway so can stack a few cars up, but yeah wouldn't be keen on leavin them out on the road. Can taxi around and pick ppl up aswell though. Also towns within walking distance. Just. Depending on weather, and how fucked up people get haha
  25. Haha cunt is an understatement. I spent probably 2 hours tryin to get it on smooth, and it still didnt turn out right! Shoulda just sanded and painted it instead.
