Ok. I didn't want to mention it but I was thinking about turbo charging my Vette. I got to thinking about it and how in efficient even turbos are (compressor efficiencies of about 80% at best). Since a turbo's function is to pressurize incoming air and force it into the upper motor, and turbos are driven by high pressure exhaust gas created from the combustion process, couldn't I just bypass the turbo altogether and route my headers back into the throttle bodies? Since I have CFI, I could balance the DEI (direct exhaust injection as I just coined it) by feeding one header into each throttle body. Yes, the charge air wouldn’t be that cold, but it would be under a hell of a lot more pressure. I attached a quick sketch below: There are still a few things I need to work out: 1) How do I get the CFI aircleaner to fit in a way that hides this plumbing? 2) Does anyone make a V-band clamp that will bolt an exhaust header to a CFI throttle body? 3) What pinion angle should I use in my rear-end? I’m sure there will be a noticeable difference in torque output. What do you guys think? _________________ 1 of 2,430 Gold Metallic coupes built...... #00521--15.2-- 1/4 mile run Back to top stevewix Joined: 28 Mar 2006 Posts: 1004 Posted: Wed Nov 07, 2007 2:54 pm    Post subject: you dumb ass motherfucker. _________________ 1970 Chevelle 370 ci Iron Block LS motor, GT47-88, TH400... 6.27 @ 115 2004 CRF450R FS, New black plastic/rims/seat/tires/tubes/brakes/air filter/fork seals/chain guides/etc. Metal Mulisha Graphics, A1 condition. $4k.

Kind of like pluging an extension cord back into it's self, your going to blow shit up, don't mess with stuff like this.

Not to mention there would be little to no oxygen in the exhaust because most of it has already been burnt up. _________________ - Mark Back to top blown454ss Joined: 29 Mar 2006 Posts: 928 Location: under your sisters bed Posted: Wed Nov 07, 2007 3:45 pm    Post subject: _________________ 68 nova (under construction) Back to top Orange SS Joined: 29 Mar 2006 Posts: 686 Location: Florida Posted: Wed Nov 07, 2007 4:18 pm    Post subject: oh my God , you are retarded....
