Time for a carbon fibre hood / 3D print one in 20 pieces

Big overlap pisses half your intake out the exhaust at low rpm so your dynamic compression is lower. Or something.

My vague reading in the past on static compression vs dynamic compression I'm trailing off now coz I can't remember the rest....

As you were.

Nothing like a failed reverse lockout to add excitement to your day.

I saw a video awhile back of a high powered Honda doing a 1st-2nd-1st shift down the strip. It did quite an impressive reverse wheelie.

Now to replace the synchros with dogs / chuck a sequential in it

You forgot a step

I've heard that there are summer and winter mixes of fuel, wonder if a) there's truth in that and b) that's why it's now melting your manifold

Also there's a GR Supra in the works? Also rumoured to be manual

Edit: already a GR Supra, but allegedly getting a 6spd next year

I'm not a Toyota fanboy, so I went to https://toyotagazooracing.com/gr/corolla/ to read about the GR Corolla. I noted that the last photo on the bottom of the page clearly shows a manual transmission, but the entire page doesn't directly mention the transmission in the text at all. I'm not sure that Toyota gets it. 

The Yaris was only offered in manual, I'm pretty sure the Corolla will be the same

"To achieve the increased power output, the Corolla exhaust uses large exhaust valves and three tailpipes for reduced backpressure and jets of oil to cool the pistons."

oh yeee

Next they have to revive the MR2 with a silly turbo engine

I saw a GR Yaris hoon past work yesterday, it sounded pretty sweet for a 3pot. I would have thought they'd have put a bigger/4banger donk in the rolla rather than the same as the Yaris. Still though, 224kw is nothing to blink at

And what's stopping people pulling a Volkswagen and leaning out the engines to sneak under it?

So what does 191g/km of CO2 mean in the real world? 

What is going on here

Chuck on a Ranger chassis and send it as is

Well that's disappointing re. parts. Weird that Toyota's greatest I6 doesn't have better parts support..

I might have something that should suit that, I'll dig it out tomorrow

There's a box at work with a few KG of cat guts in it, wonder what that's worth

Man, the number of cats I've hollowed out at work and emptied into the dumpster..

Cat go meow

As the angle grinder removes it

Hammer the ribs flat m8

Looking at the graphs it appears that the runners aren't a limiting factor for power, I wonder if it'd be worth decreasing the diameter so they become restrictive and therefore design differences will be more apparent

Chuck four of those AliExpress electric intake turbos on it
