Project AW11: Low n Slow

thanks. i still seem to have a very small coolant leak :bs:

ive caked so much rtv around the leaking water neck, and the shit still leaks. this is getting annoying. but, my car doesnt over heat.

 

lowered my car some more today. i now rub and scrape life is good once again

 

Love the sig. haha

 

woot for slammage

 

ok, here's a real update

props to daniel for hooking me up on the cusco shift knob (i now have no points )


it fits well



new heart - JDM 4AGZE with ~60k miles on it - the block is so clean! this motor isnt rusting away like the other motor i picked up and the one in my car.




and a preveiw of what's to come

 

HAHAHA!!!! fuckin' wonderful, Kev. I can't wait to see the GeeZiE go in. Keep posted.

 

good for u dood... just neeeed...MATCHING WHEELS

 

but i need to burn through these before i do that. :googly:

 

HA, but think about it... no more naughty CENSORED MR-2 . Either way dude the 4AGZE is a great step forward :thumbup:

 

im not sure you guys noticed whats next to the motor as well.

 

is that a snail crawling on that block of wood next to that stand.....200% more boost huh? twincharged?? the best of both worlds, instant boost from the sc and easy to control with little boost spike! am i right??

 

wow didnt even notice!

 

WOW!!! Your beast is about to come alive and destroy everything in it's path!

You do very good work, and your progress keeps me guessing...BAD ASS...

thats all I have to say.

 

pretty much.

i have two options as far as i see it for twin charging.

1) one would be to route it so that once the turbo overpassed the supercharger's efficiency, a bypass valve opens and essentially making the motor turbo only at that time.

2)"Since a roots blower does not internally compress the intake charge (it just pumps it and it's compressed because it can't travel into the cylinders at the rate it's being pumped), once the pressure in front of the supercharger equals the pressure behind it, the supercharger ceases to do any work on the charge air. So literally the only gain you might make by re-routing the air is the internal friction in the blower itself. I never thought of that before. Good call. I'm awaiting a dyno with great eagerness."

im looking at more of the second setup with no bypass valve. basically turbo feeds the SC. (sc gets turbo spooling too)


i plan on getting a bigger turbo than this thing though. small turbos will spool up too quick and drop off at high rpm's. im looking for a T28 from a s15 SR20.



should look something like this when done

 

oh, and i wont have as much top end power as turbo alone, but i will have a much better power curve. worth sacrificing 20hp for imo.

 

I see a box... of something. Your photo editing has disguised it.

edit: I'm behind. sorry. nice combo. twinscrewed MRduece.

 

you lost me...

but not twinscrew. the stock SC12 is a roots type

 

thats sick i have thought of twin charging befor but didnt have the money. but that should be awsome. i wish i could do something like that but i think i'll just try turboing my IS untill i can get an old school project like you have

 

wow thats about to be a tight setup! Good luck with all the mocking up/fabricating

 

thanks.

it will be a tight fit too! haha. how do you make a cluster fuck more of a cluster fuck? add a supercharger, turbocharger, and an intercooler in the space that an NA motor was once in :hithead:

i should probably move that battery to the front....
