You cant explain that. Because there no reasonable explaination.

Yeah, so what? Its nice to have something different you know? Im kinda into the body style, I like it, so thats all the matters.

Re: Picked up another turbo dodge.
 

Typically, a correct air/fuel ratio will create about a 45F temp drop when fuel vaporizes in the carburetor. this temperature drop, with a cold, damp day will usually cause the throttle to freeze wide open under boost.

Just ignore the haters.

I'm not a fan of those but I don't see anything wrong with them. If you can make it fast, good job.

Re: Picked up another turbo dodge.
 

Well that theory could be correct. But you typically measure IAT in the manifold. So you would still not want a hot IAT. I have never heard of carburetor running boost have the throttle freeze open. Ive seen carberated cars running Ice box air-water intercooler with meth do just fine. The cooler the better. ;D

Re: Picked up another turbo dodge.
 

um... it is the carb that will start to ice under boost.

Re: Picked up another turbo dodge.
 

I'm pretty sure something will need to be around freezing temperature for it to freeze.

I don't see heat dissipating that much. If it's 60 degrees outside, your fuel temp isn't going to get under 60 degrees. I'm also sure the air going through the carb will be warm enough to keep it from freezing.

Freezing should only be a problem in cold cold temperatures, when you're getting very little airflow...like at idle.

Then again, I've never owned a carb'd car.

your retarded, you can run up to 15 psi on a stock tune with a turbo dodge, thats where the factory fuel cut is, all you have to do is throw in a different map or a bleed and rock 20psi all day long on pump gas with no problems

I miss my turbo dodges I want another one, I love them I like how people like to hate on them cause they are kind of ugly but fact of the matter is I can throw less than $500 at one and blow the doors off your civic with a basic hmt setup

Re: Picked up another turbo dodge.
 

this is only for a blow through setup. allot of rx7 guys do it to their first gens and run serious boost.

Post a picture of a frosty carb, with no intercooler. O0
