    Hey Rob, have you looked into turbo's that use their own lubricant? Im currently running Comp oil-less turbos on both of my rotary cars and while they aren't oil-less they don't use the same oil as the engine. However because you dont have to worry about gravity returns you can mount these turbo's in any orientation, great for tight engines bays. Ive had alot of success and fun with them since switching to them in 2019. Just a few squeezes of their mineral lubricant every few 1000 miles and your good to go. And the spool up compared to the Precision Gen2's they replaced is amazing. I know your a Garrett man but I was just wondering if you had ever checked out these kinds of turbo's. Keep up the great work fellas, DORITOS 4 LIFE!!!!!🤙

  • @landrelarose745
    @landrelarose745 Рік тому +4

    Robert, there are three points where the front suspension system needs to be in alignment with each other. In the event that the car has upper and lower control arms, the pivots of the rack and pinion steering knuckles must be in line with the bolts that are slid into them. What will happen in the event they aren't? Bump steer. How does that happen? In a different way of typing this, how does bump steer occur? Look at the pivots of those control arms. Next, look at the wrong length of the rods that are attached to the ends of the rack. Do you see it? It's difficult to see it in your mind when you're not able to concentrate. That's what you need to do. No, I'm not angry at you while I was typing that. The pivots of the tie rods and the two control arms, when they aren't in alignment with each other, there'll be bump steer. In the event that the tie rods are longer that where the two control arms pivot, whenever the tire travels over a bump, they'll pivot outwards. The opposite is true when those tie rods are shorter than where those control arm pivots are. They'll pivot the two tire inwards. Why is it that way? That's a question you need to answer for yourself. The reason for this is because I'm not able capable of doing that at this moment of time. I'll possibly be able to in the future, except not currently, though. It's a possibility that I'll be able to answer this question relatively soon, possibly this night. Is it a possibility that I did answer that question? That's additionally a possibility. Why is it that way is the question. I believe I have the answer to it. It's because the tie rod pivots and the control arm pivots are of two different lengths. That's the reason why the three of those pivots need to be in alignment with each other.

    I know you probably dont have the ability to make the angle of that intercooler hood less steep but i believe that with such a steep angle you're going to have flow separation issues. You might make up for it by pressurizing the incoming air as it builds up trying to get through the intercooler but i would not be surprised to see a pressure differential.

    Hey Rob, I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before, but if you guys were worried about airflow into the radiator with the front mount intercooler, would it be beneficial to run a V-mount style system since you plan to track this car so you guys can build optimal duckting to get more hot air out of the bay?

    • @Tunerguy21
      @Tunerguy21 Рік тому +1

      @@lanezurowski6616 Its definitely possible. The Super GReddy 7 by RE-Amemiya springs immediately to mind. I do think its dependent on how exactly the engine and turbo are mounted as to whether or not you'd have space, though. The angle of the V could also play a part too.
