hey gerandasi why do you have your pod facing up? remember hot air rises i have a bell mouthin my front spoiler for the cai and its heatsheilded by me haha nah do it yourself or if you still havent wen i turbo mine ill give mine to you clear indicators on that colour look pretty to haha

mate put in some punctuation(i added 3 for effect). i had to read that bout 5 times till i understood you??

if you look in the pic, the tube he has run from the front bar pops up right next to his pod so the cold air from that would hit the bonnet right where his pod is sucking the air in. it would run fine.

wat about the side that is toward the engine bay?

wich is a much bigger surface area hence would still get more hot air

admittadly he atleast went to the trouble of puttin the tube in wich is more than most people do but if it was sheilded,do you really disagree with me and say it wouldnt work better?

wat point are you trying to prove or argue about?

because i cant see wat your trying to say? youre wrong im right leave it at that

It runs pretty sweet. I'm satisfied anyway because it sounds good, probably added a few kW too..
I think I will eventually run the pod underneath. It's just buying more piping, joiners etc.. Not to mention widening the hole that it has to be going thru.
I'm not a mechanic either so I struggle with this shit sometimes
- Oh, and syko4d, u have to chill the fu** out. No one is having a stab at you

the cold air from the tube comes right out next to his pod and would spread when it hit the bonnet hence keeping that area cool. that side of the engine bay doesnt heat up that much anyway. i tried to answer your question not argue with you about anything so before you go off you head, take a f*^ken chill pill and read my responses.
i'm right, YOUR WRONG

LMAO well said

so youre trying to say heatsheilding wont benefit?

i didnt start saying how ineficient his cai setup is all i was saying was it will benefit from a heat sheild

besides that the longer the intake tube is the less power and difference it will make .

gerendassi,s is longer and also points up so i really dont think that would be beneficial

you dont seem to have abs so under were the aircleaner is now would be easy to put a bigger tube into and you could also have the pod down flat saving the need for the pipe going up if you needed a really cheap cai you could easily just make a box to sit over the top of the pod and have better tubing coming from underneath you could even use a battery box to cover ,

plastic is not ideal but as ed falcon said it doesnt get to hot there

ed falcon my point is simple heat sheilding is beneficial thats all i was trying to say

Spontaneous thought of the moment: This thread is shit. Screw clean and tidy engine bays, nobody sees them when all they can see is your tail lights in the distance.

hahahaha good stuff hahaha

4 liter turbo motor on 7psi is effectively 6 liters. DER!

Should have got an LS2.

LS2 in a Falcon LOL

Hey, Pam, Remember when i said this car was Death Proof ?

I suppose the question is why?
(no offence)

dont ask questions that are out of your league...

Oh shit, I'm sorry. As it said: "no offence".
I was merely just curious. But if I'm shut down straight away for asking then excuse me.
... So where do I go now for a forum without harsh knts.

What's wrong with asking? As far as I can see he was being very polite about it.

well it was answered but its easier to plump for turbo application and also CAI if u do it right

hahaha i dont care where ya go i got a larf from this all.

Fuckin' get back to the engine bays you kents. If you wanna talk shit, go elsewhere.

Ok.. Well I'm sure some of you know about Red Victor 1.. fastest street legal car.
V8 stroked to something like 9.3L. 0-60 in 1.0 sec.. (not a typo). 1/4 mile in 7.6s @ 189mph
And here's the engine bay pics vv

wow wow wow wow that is awesome

oh lord! i want that in my ef..

did you say that car is street legal?

not in australia im gueessing?

Nah in the Uk. However, it is officially the fastest 0-60 car in the world that can legally be driven on a public street.
LoL. The guy who owns this picks up his kid from school in it.
Wouldn't U just be the coolest kid in school getting picked up in the quickest road legal car in the world?

Going a bit off topic now lol but what the hey, here's a Vid of the Red Victor 1.

What a joke, thats not a street car. May be legal in the UK but its really only a technicality.

I'm sure you could take a Top fueller to some african nation and whack number plates on it and claim to be the fastest street legal car.

Don't ask me to define what is a street car tho!

yeah i see wat youre sayin tuffed but its still pretty cool

but then again id say your car would get hassled by the cops wouldnt it?

im not bein a smart arse i love your car and its awesome i want my car to be half as fast

Never been pulled over in it, its not a daily driver though. Only drive it on the weekends etc really, and to work sometimes.

Then again I never claimed to be street legal or the fastest anything.

No interior, engine climbing out of the bonnet, massive chassis mods & full cage is not a street car in my opinion...

yeah i agree with you dude

i wasnt having a go at you

street car IMO you should be able to drive to an fro work, down to the shops, around town. and without having to inspec'd the engine

If you drive it on the street its a street car.

The laws are too anal to get too picky in Vic.

That looks bizarre dude. I still cant get used to the idea of getting rid of my manifold and injection. What did you do with all the associated injection looms etc? Did you just simply chop them/unplug or neaten them up? What is still required when running straight LPG?

Rod Hadfields Chev would have to go pretty quick
