does the twin cone really apply to forced induction? The resonance effects do apply but need to be adjusted for the different pressure. So it should still be valid. Jean |

In fact it could reduce power. I think that the claimed hp gains are probably with short runner manifolds. On 27th Feb, 2011 wolfie said:

any updates phil? I wish ! I've got most of the parts for the build & I rebored the block the other week, but that's as far as I've got. I've got to many heads etc to do for other folks at the moment, so I've not had any time for my own stuff. Hows your build doing Jack ? Phil. :) |

Any had a chance to get into the garage unfortunately for me, plus my money seems to be disappearing, mrs birthday this month so the mini allowance was cut short, still need pistons, shells, rod bolts, gaskets and a exhaust manifold yet so it's probably going to be a very close call even for mitp, as soon as I get back in the garage I'll post some pics up in my rather neglected build thread Jack Jones |

I only work on the car between 8pm and 10pm, but it takes some serious motivation to get into the garage after a full days work. http://www.twin-turbo.co.uk

Nice phil, when you going to bolt it all up? I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

The plan is to get the full potential out of my current 5 port motor then swap the 7 port head over for a direct comparison. In the meantime I'm building a new motor for the 7port to go on. So once the comparisons done a whole new engine will go in.

Not a huge update as I have very little free time as usual, but I decided to actually put a few hours aside to do some bits for my own car for a change.

Thanks for the input. So you think the part where the throttle body will go should be angled away from the block & the plenum should taper down more towards the other end ?

I've done several dynamic CFD runs of various plenum design.
