I dont think you can dyno a car with no drive train that is jet propelled.

HMTguy 11-22-2004 12:55 PM

Re:and you thought 3g eclipses were slow.....
 
Does the car still have it's original engine in there, maybe to get around without using the jet engine? I see an exhaust pipe...

Re:and you thought 3g eclipses were slow.....
 
i think it got two engines... jet engine for a back up?
---- i'd want to take that thing out and race some fag for slips... ;D

The jet engine weighs 750 lbs, thats what he meant. Of course the whole thing weighs more. Come on guys use your heads ;)

for ONE run, then every1 will know.. and u cant exactly drive that on the street (the jet part anyways)..

just imagine what the Cal police would do..

police: "uhm.. you have an aftermarket exhaust sir."
some guy: "ya.. you think?"

lol

Well, with how much noise a jet engine makes, I don't think anyone will miss the jet part.

I really wonder if these guys plan on having the intake between their heads, hahaha

and you thought 3g eclipses were slow.....
still do, can't say it's not til we get some numbers ;)

Heck for all we know that might just be for show like bambi and his front mount n/a intercooled :P

There is a guy in CT with a 3G 4 cyl forged that runs some large boost. Hotrex knows him. The car looks very fast.

Re:and you thought 3g eclipses were slow.....
 
If I ever put a jet in a car, it would be to melt front bumpers at stop lights. ;)

robs99si 11-22-2004 04:19 PM

Re:and you thought 3g eclipses were slow.....
 
i still think those 3rd gens are the ugliest things evar! ;D if that jet engine is functional, that thing could go in excess of 250mph and that's a conservative figure

Sweet ;D

I agree. Making a jet is like in the millions so i can only imagine how much it was getting one of the engines alone. And of all the cars he puts it in the 3g eclispe...

HMTguy 11-22-2004 05:47 PM

Re:and you thought 3g eclipses were slow.....
 
You can get used engines like that for just a few thousand if you look around. Maybe not exactly that one, but something very similar.

hotrex 11-22-2004 05:54 PM

Re:and you thought 3g eclipses were slow.....
 
thats a lycoming pt-6. that custom exhaust is very restrictive and severly cuts down on the turbines efficiency. but still cool

Whoa! You actually sound like you know what you are talking about?

I wonder what kinda milage that thing gets? hah

Re:and you thought 3g eclipses were slow.....
 
How exatctly do you propose to put that thing on a dyno?

It needs a 3 foot wing.

Re:and you thought 3g eclipses were slow.....
 
I hope it goes outta control and flys off a cliff explodes into a million pieces and the driver dies for being that stupid to do that. the 3g was the start of the downfall of eclipse.
