Spooling times for a supercharger? O.o Edit: It's been said before that the 1l's are better for turbo/supercharging than 1.2l's due to engine designs...or something.

Infected Mushrooms early trance beats. ;)

I was the opposite. I found driving with my instructor more comforting, know he'd save me if I was about to screw up. On my own I'd be nervous and scared of upsetting other road users. Besides, statistics (which is where insurance prices come from!) say that you're more likely to have an...

I'd take it off your hands. ;)

There's a logic behind it (I'm with quinn too): When you're on provisional you can ONLY drive with someone who's 21+ who has had their license for 3 years or an authorized driving instructor. When you pass you're allowed to drive on your own. This means you're more likely to cock SOMETHING up or...

I didn't exactly pass physics with flying colours, but I would've thought that if it started large than got smaller, the air would've been squeezed into that smaller space rather than a set amount going through a tube then being dispersed. Just my thoughts on it. :)

I'll vote for who ever puts together a sensible drugs policy as well as pulling troops from Iraq and cutting Military spending to improve our schools and health care. As it stands we're sinking far too much money into military assets when it could be spent improving public health care. My...

Surely that'd work better if it was more like a funnel? I.e. Large -> Small rather than Small -> Large?

Having looked around a bit and read the other threads on here, it's become horribly obvious that it'd be a larger task than the mini cooper lads in this area made out. They judged around £175ish max, for all the parts for a suck through system. It's just that alluring whine of the supercharger...

Just think for a moment...Do you REALLY need that heating system? ;) Filling the heating/radio area with that gear would make it look quite cool, if you ask me.

I was actually planning on dropping down a 4 band active equalizer where the heater/cigar lighter is and making the heater only rear windscreen + front windscreen blower. Was thinking about following it with an analog wave analyser where the central air duct is. You actually going to fit that...

Well...Say around £100ish, new inlet manifold to cater to the charger with post carb build depends on how I get it made (self made, sent off to my dads machine shop or made by a professional) and SU carbs for £50+...Exhaust system would cost a bit more, but there you go. To me, that's a lot...

Well for me, a CG13 conversion isn't possible. A supercharger, new manifolds and a new carb? Yeah. That's better for my situation. Thanks for the SU carb tip though. :)

Was considering a post carb supercharger, as that means I can slap on almost any carb I want (If I understand it right). So if I were to slap something together, It'd probably be webbers or bike carbs. That'd work, right? In terms of money, a Supercharger is less gain than a CG13 conversion, but...

Anyone done it? I know turbos have been done, but has no one supercharged? Was thinking about sticking an Eaton M45 (off a Cooper S) on my K10 as an inlet manifold charger (rather than a carb charger) as a summer project (if I ever have any cash to play with!). If there's a cheaper option (say a...

It's true! There are more K10's on the roads than any other car in that class from the 80s.

That's sort of how it works. See, say you've got a 4 - 2 - 1 manifold. For now we'll focus on Cylinder 1 and 3 (C1 and C3). C1 fires, the exhaust travels down the primary header and it's backed up by a "pressure wave". As primary header of C1 meets primary header of C3 and forms the secondry...

Having stood infront of a sub system playing out 1hz -> 200hz, I can say my pants were unsoiled.

I find my theatres 2kw portable P.A. system a bit loud for comfortable listening. 40kw must be pretty mad (if set up right!). Reminds me. Should start putting together some psy trance!

Could bring my mates generator and set up 12 P.A. subwoofers...That'd shake london to the ground. There's TECHNICALLY a restriction on them. See, you can't have over X db during certain times in the day. Since bass frequencies travel through car walls and such better, it's very easy for them...
