xxscaxx Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I knew you'd give me crap xxscaxx. I am a legacy lovin' hoe. Really, though they're for different purposes. For a single or married guy with no kids......STI all the way. For a married guy with kids or kids in their near future, the legacy GT is hard to beat. It can be made stupid fast and has all the creature comforts a family man would need. Just different purposes. I think a wingless legacy gt dropped on 18's is hard to beat as far as looks go though. lol, i was just bustin ur balls. i completely agree to be honest.

Blown330 Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I'll simplify things on what makes a turbo spool. Takes load...that's it. More load = more spool. Load = high volume of HOT exhaust gas. Things that create load on an engine are: WOT acceleration (successive gears = more load), positive grades (going up hill), towing, etc. Not as much RPM...but throttle position. Throttle position determines how much fuel the PCM will deliver through the injectors. Take for instance you are cruising along on the highway, boost gauge reads vacuum and you start going up a slight hill. You apply more throttle to maintain current speed, rpms do not change, and the turbo begins to spool. What happened? Turbo is responding to increased load placed on the engine. Load causes increased EGT's which, combined with the increased air moving through the engine (remember the additional throttle applied) causes the turbo to spool up. Simple really.

Blown330 Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 That's a little over simplified...pretty much the reason rear-mount turbo systems suck compared to a more traditional turbo setup. And who has a chevy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 rear mount turbos throw a monkey wrench into pyros theory , hahaha. its as simple as a fan being turned by hot air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cranny Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 did you guys see the episode of american hotrod , when they put a twin turbo small block chev into a 63 vette i think it was(red one). pulled like 700 on the dyno or somin like that. buddy had it idling on a dyno machine(engine only not in a car) , and everytime he gave it a shot of gas , flames would shoot about 4 feet out the open ended hot side of the turbos as thier wasnt exhaust on the engine , was fukin awsome , lol. that engine was a beast.

mycarsux Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I think someone told me about that. I once saw a vid of a twin turbo grandnational. The turbos were so high pitched and loud you couldn't hear anything. It just goes like dead quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 grand nationals even in thier stock form were beasts. 3.8 v6 turbo , dont know what they were rated for , but ive been in one , and it was scary , lol. i was 15 years old(not driving , lol).
