remote mounted t-body?? seriously intrigued
out of boredome i went to inlinepro's website (yes they still want $500 for a cast mani :o ) to see if they had any new cars out andi came across these pics of a k swapped EG
i had never heard of putting your TB any where but on your intake manifold. is this to cause less restriction coming into the mani?? someone that has uncontrollable knowledgablities please explain this something is missing http://inlinepro.com/fig/inlinepro/IMG_3311.jpg looks like the t-body is right after the velocity stack http://inlinepro.com/fig/inlinepro/IMG_3302.jpg just because its a sleeper back in 05 it ran a mid 13 on stock tires LS/V turbo http://inlinepro.com/fig/inlinepro/IMG_1985.jpg |

That's a new one. (Atleast to me).
I don't see the point, other than to be different and cause conversations like the one we're having. |
Re: remote mounted t-body?? seriously intrigued
so you have a 5 foot long intake or a 1 foot long intake, TB doesn't care much.

Re: remote mounted t-body?? seriously intrigued
ive seen some bmw race cars where the TB was mounted on the turbo's intake.

Re: remote mounted t-body?? seriously intrigued
Im gonna guess it really comes down to velocity. In reality I dont see how it will make a difference.

Re: remote mounted t-body?? seriously intrigued
I bet it lets the air flow smoothly. Who knows

Re: remote mounted t-body?? seriously intrigued
Yeah and maybe it gets rebuilt every 2,000 miles since it has to rev to 12,000 RPM to make power. Screw that, spend a few bucks on internals and make the same power on boost for 100,000 miles.

Or that car will make you ------ famous and bring in tons of business. 11 sec turbo cars dont get ya coked out big breasted asian puss does it. |
Re: remote mounted t-body?? seriously intrigued
Um, this is actually a terrible way of doing things. What happens is the turbo sees vaccum on the compressor side which causes oil problems with the seals. In FSAE you need to run the throttle body before the compressor. Without making modifications to the system to limit the amount of vaccum on the compressors seals teams can have engines injest quarts of oil in a very short period. Generally the best solution is limit oil pressure, use proper feed/return lines, and design a carbon seal.
