weirdness

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

wtf? :o maybe they were trying to hide the turbo?

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

thats cool

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

Yeah really, what was the though process behind this? :S

Routing all the exhaust inside the car seems like a great idea to me... I couldn't see any downside... ::)

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

I dunno, but I think that turbo was pretty, how should I say it, "un-hidden".....If you notice the car is on 12:1 compression with 4lbs of boost, maybe he was a hardcore allmotor guy and wanted boost but didnt wanna seperate with his gillion dollar header? Looks more like a toy than a car, probably saved some money

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

rear mount turbos are pretty efficient. and he prolly was all motor before this if he has 12:1. :3

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

props on custom fab and originality? but seems like a hell of a lot of custom fabrication and work for not very much performance. Shouldn't a decent built ls-vtec with 12:1 cpr make like 220ish hp anyway? You can here the turbo spool well cuz its inside the car but it doesn't sound like it spools till like 8k :S

seemed to rip ok

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

that thing didnt rip ok LOL it just made a bunch of noise

he didnt even spin the tires over in 2nd gear, that is pathetic

I couldn`t tell ---- from not seeing the speedometer :3
like RS said he barely spinned second gear :1

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

---- I'd rip the ---- out of my tires in second gear off the roll, and my ---- was a single cam to... :X

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

whats the whole point and advantage of having the turbo in the trunk? ??? more cooling perhaps?

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

don't have to run you heater as much

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

It said a fourth to fifth gear pull, not second.

Still gayer than gay

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

the exhaust gasses going into teh turbo are not as hot 8 feet back as they are 9 inches away from teh head. This preserves the life of the turbo. No need for water cooling it. it is a bit more expensive setup though. There are other benefits, but I'm not extremely familiar with it.

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

but it wouldnt really make your car faster, would it??

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

watch the end of the video

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

???

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

looks like they based it on a squires turbo system idea.

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

is there any plus to this setup?

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

You can use a header :1

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

yeah, i know i'm a noob, sorry.

now, would the time and effort to put a turbo in the back and use a header produce more hp? it seems to me like the air is gonna slow down a lot before it gets back up front. well not a lot, but you get what i mean. wouldnt a regular turbo setup be better and more cost effective?

Re: Ls vtec turbo'ed DA Video
 

that took way too long to get through second gear, :-\
