Is anyone here actually not a fucking loser and actually drives or works on high performance cars?
Anyone here actually look at spending a few thousand on bottom end parts? Think in cam timing? Port and Polish their own cars? Have enough power to worry if the power will bust through their piston walls? Power adders are things to be stacked, not debated about which one is best?
This thread is for you.
Real niggas only.

>implications
there's niggas here that can buy and sell people
now wether or not they still visit idk, /o/ has seemed to die since last i was here
>>13882768
So,,, are those butterflies fake?
Do the turbos just recirculate their own boosted air?
Post your car OP, us losers can wait

Running 9 seconds right now in my wrinkle wall nova.
Recently blew up my compound charged SN95. Gonna use what I can from that to try for 7-8 seconds soon. Might even just start new again.
My SN95 was dyno'd at 1100 horsepower with 93.
>>13882768
Sheeeeeit nigga
How are you supposed to set valve lash on that thing?
>>13882930
Wana donate some old turbos or something. I would like to go big turbo on my jetta, but im a youngin and I only make like 10k a year .
>>13882930
eugh that nigger wiring job is triggering me
>>13882949
No handouts. Commie.
>>13882957
Handout a job?
That turbo does nothing?????
>>13882955
Have a palette cleanser
>>13882955
It's better than someguy's ford

Kek
>>13882969
>7 and 8 wires next to each other
>>13882964
I was wondering how it held boost in with a fuck huge set of holes right by it.
>>13882964
To work, there would have to be a divider between the injector hat and the lower polished part where the compressed air goes in, and the injector butterflies would be open all the time so the carb could do its job
show cars, mang

Not even bait. Amerifat having trouble processing the truth
>>13882997
How does having sloppy/poorly sized spark plug wires aid in the function of the car vs. doing a clean job?
>>13883010
You're not even putting the hooks in the water.
Fucks sake
guys
Which side do turbos draw air IN from, and which side do they spit it OUT?
you can't see the inlet in the engine, or the inlets aren't attached. The turbos are drawing air FROM the blower hat.
>>13883037
Who knew, /o/ is full of poorfags who don't know shit about high performance motors.
Who would've thought.
This board continuously disappoints me. The only thing it has over any other forum about cars is that the grammar here is better.
>>13883037
I reversed searched and found a video
the turbos blow into the shiny plate section under the injector hat
>>13883037
Glad I wasn't the only one who saw that.
>>13882930
Bullshit faggot, you're not running 9's in a stock chassis all steel nova with an iron head sbc breathing through a shitty single edelbrock.
>>13883053
Maybe he was a faggot and is half-truth in by 9s in the 1/8.
>>13882768
It's impressive on paper I guess. Big engines like that just don't really so much to interrest me anymore. I mean aside dyno numbers and drag strip, what good is all that power.
If I were in the position to drop several grand on upgrades, I'd probably worry more about suspension and tires before even worrying about the engine. Plus a smaller engine running at full chat is more fun than a big engine loping along.
>>13883053
He's probably talking about the 1/8 mile, don't blame southerners, they don't have access to education or actual tracks
>>13883053
No shit. It's an old photo. But seeing as how no other fuckface here caught on. It still proved /o/ is stuck in FWD i4s running under 100 to the crank.
>>13882768
Nope, this thing's basically a tractor.
>>13883070
what's your merc do in the 1/4?
>>13883075
I'd estimate 17.3 with my current tires
>>13883084
:^)
Actually, our shop just ran this today.
Loser.
>>13883073
I'm willing to bet most of us just didn't open the photo to look at it, or assumed it was just a random, unrelated engine photo.

K. I mean it's an american weeaboo board, so that's understandable.

Dohoho, gr8 b8 m8, /o/ is way better than 99% of forums, we circle jerk, but we always have the one guy telling us we're jerking it.
Specific car make forums are the cancer that divides car bros
If you define 'performance' as engines with several thousand horsepower that will run for 15000 hours before rebuild, then I guess I do.
>>13882768
I do all of that, but so many here are bus riding no cars that never believe anything I have to say. Given that, I don't bother posting anymore.
>>13883384
Trains?
>>13883408
But anon, youre posting right now.
>>13883422
Correct. I don't post my cars, or bother trying to tell anyone about them.
I could literally make a video of me shoving an entire loaf of Mary Jane into one of my turbos slice by slice with a room full of time stamps, and god himself performing miracles in the background. And people would still cry hurr nice car your dad has, hurr other denial shit, then shitpost the thread into oblivion.
Therefore I'll just keep them to myself, and just shitpost like everyone else.
>>13883073
Ok yeah you take the bus for sure kek
Bread on hood you bix nood
This lil guy runs 10's. Would do better, but she isnt tubbed and spins even with caltracs.
>>13883452
mate you should get some rust protection, all that salt cant be good for you.
Bought a new turbo, ecu and required exhaust to twincharge my car. just gotta get a BOV, W/O2 and wastegate.
And this lil guy eats up bearings like they care fucking candy.
Really scoots like crazy though.
>>13882888
same basic principle, pic related.
>>13883719
how soft are you running the rears?
>>13883743
12 usually
>>13883752
We run 20 for just driving around, but for racing we go to 12.
>>13883752
soft bump on the shocks too? found that it helps launching. just gotta watch for lifting the front too much.
>>13883719
that a nova? looks cool
>>13883763
Dont really bump it too much, ive been thinking of ways to facilitate weight transfer though. I need a good set of drag shocks in the fronts. We run airs in the rear, which unfortunately are a little stiffer than i like, but i need them stiff to keep the damn tires from rubbin when i go over bumps on the way to the track.
2 years ago was the only time I didnt get to drive her home, dropped a valve and scattered the guts out of the 350 all over the track.
Now im running a siamesed motown 400 block.
>>13883770
Yep! Thanks!
>>13883806
We are currently working on my fathers El Camino, it runs low 12s naturally aspirated.
Turns out even at .022" ring end gap we were still closing the gaps and it would break the piston crown/ring land It took us 3 pistons before we figured that one out. I was so dang sure it was a detonation issue.
>>13883032
>>13883000
You are fucking retarded
>>13882768
The only time this engine ever starts up is probably to drive back into the climate controlled trailer that brought it to the car show
>>13883419
Earthmoving gear and boats usually.
