I looked with no luck, Getting it welded once I get the BOV. Then polished.

Re: My prototype setup
I like it. How many people of you known about that have run this setup? I personally have never seen it done but I am super interested to see how it works. Were you able to record your previous temps, power, e.t's prior to the modification? I will follow this closely....way to think outside the box!!
Good Luck, Nick

Re: My prototype setup
You have to be careful i had a intercooler and meth tuned to perfection. My alky hiccuped and i instantly blew the head gasket and cracked the head. And i had a intercooler for a cushion. Test your meth before every woopin you give her!!!

Re: My prototype setup
Yup, I know of one other member who was running a similar setup sans intercooler. No margin for error with a set up like that...

Re: My prototype setup
None that I know of, I did with the RPM A2A and it was really high. Started at 68 Deg. and by the end of the 1/4 there were up to 131 deg. I will keep everone posted. I might even put A 20 hp N2o through it to cool the charge. We will see.

Re: My prototype setup
You may want to look into using that alky controller Jeff Scott has, with all of it's safety features. It may come in handy one day...possibly save your engine.

Re: My prototype setup
I suspect if you try a different intercooler core you might have different results. I personally have not seen great results with that setup you had, just not enough core area in the air stream. What is in the air stream is mostly a lower end tank.

Use to do a little Boost
Re: My prototype setup
I played around with a Hot air pipe on my truck, with a stock turbo, 24 psi of boost and methanol injection. I had no luck with it. To get the meth to overcome the heat it would be so rich that it bogged the motor. I know Daron tried it to with no luck.
Hopefully you will fare better.:tup:

Re: My prototype setup
110% Agree. You'd have to get fans in back of it to make it worth while. It's position down low is not benificial for cooling the air charge going through it. The limited air being passed through it can not cool the air rushing through the inside.
Any hot air car/truck is moody. They will run decent till they warm up then it feels like your dragging another truck in back of you.
My Turbo Maxima was hot air for about 2months. I put a stock GN IC up front and it became so much more consistant in it's driveability.
Up front before the radiator/AC Condensor is ideal. Fans pull air across core constantly and when your driving it's being pulled and forced. Keeping the core cool and the air passing on the inside more consistant.
Good advice from all here.
