Thanks!

The welds has burned thru inside out and walls are 3 and 4 mm. Boost will be no moore than 24 psi so I think it will hold together.
About the runner lenght... we have done a lot of simulations and discussed it with my "enginedynobuddyofmine" and of course I will loose a bit torque below 3,5 krpm but with 3 liter and 10:1 in cr that will not be a problem. And who is driving at 3,5 krpm? My powerband is calculated from 4 to 7,5 krpm and I will gain moore with 80 mm runners at high rpm or in my powerband than I will loose in lower midrange.

We have some issues with the boost control that still needs to be taken care of.
However, we did some tests the other day and got 12.15 @ 127 mph on the quarter mile, 0-100 km/h in 4.2 and 100-200 in 7.78 sec.

As soon as the boost control setup is fixed expect those numbers to go down

I love the way you crazy Nordic Warriors push the boundaries. It's important that there are guys like you to go off the beaten track and not just follow the norm. Keep posting as some of this stuff will filter down to us mere mortals!

Corleone, did you stiffened the front behind the radiator after removing the front beam under the original IC?

I was close to remove it this summer but was afraid to get a soft front (track days.)

Is the IC an extruded type or like the original?

Have you flowed this?

(BTW I had a dyno run with 395 DIN HP @ 1,1 bar last Saturday, 3.0 8V mostly stock items, but some mods)

No, no need to.

You dont!

I dont know what you mean. But in and out is at the same side, air turnes in the botton.

Have you flowed this?

I havnt but the guy who built it has done several tests before the final solution.

Sorry, OT Mr Broker. How is it that you are from Sweden, and adopted the avatar of one of my Pisanos, The God Father himself? Because your screen name is Corleone, is that it?

I just playing with you my friend, so please don't be offended at all, I'm curious. And what can I say, I'm very Italian and proud of my heritage and my people. I have connections all over the world. So my "boyz" as they say, are always here for me if I need help or information in other countries, all I need to do it pick up the phone.

By the way, beautiful job on that intake, so bravo to you! Very, very nice. Anyway, you better go and sell a lot of homes or commercial real estate to keep that car going.

Good luck my friend.

127mph?! Nice. What was your 60ft? That mph is good enough for mid to low 12's with a good launch. Your project is looking good!

12.15 @ 127 mph , Very nice. How much boot on that run?
With that MPH it should be a 11.00 to high 10's if you could launch good.
What was the 60ft time?
