Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

So thats interesting. I managed to blow the motor in a Ageria by attempting to see how long it takes to burn a set of tires. Motor gave out after 20 min of a 3rd gear doughnuts.

Uhh.. I hope not IRL.

Haha, you've got some great eyes there!

You don't wanna get Hawk HP+ and shoot sparks? 

i mean unless there is something on top of the pad surface. It's like weird and very rough. like a very low grit sandpaper almost. 

 

HP+ pads are soooo expensive....

i might get an old civic to fuck around with (non road legal, used for auto-cross and stuff) mod the engine a little (better intake, exhaust and cams) plus mod it so that vtec is permanently locked on for lolz. (car with mods would cost 1500 usd (15k nok) and that would once again allow me to avoid thrashing on the starlet whenever i want to have some fun (starlet weould then get put into storage untill im 18))

Been watching a bit of dashcam footage of a trucker in Sweden. Seems the main issue he has to deal with is people cutting in front of him.

 

Truckers get the biggest respect from me. They are driving 25 meter long vehicles that can weigh up to 60 tonnes.

Yup. Or at least the thing they copied.

He actually has a fender from one of the movie cars^^ You can see it in the charger buildup video.

Guys, look what I found out that we have...

 

So far it's only on a 2km strip of roadway, but it's an interesting way of making trucks greener.

 

Neat. Probably won't be implemented because of the cost of all the building required :/
