My long promised blog

All extremely complicated but I've got it all planned out hopefully.
The turbo will go through a smaller intercooler either top mount subaru style or corner mount like skylines etc... through s/c (on front of engine) then into a larger fmic :)

I've made plans for a rear mounted rad if needs be :)

Spot on. Extra pump to assist the mechanical one :)
Also a swirl pot too to rid air out the system and increase capacity again. Shouldn't stay pretty cool :)

Nooo... not need 2 man you won't exceed one :)
 
I suppose I would just have to take the return off the fuel tank to the swirl pot. Or another return from the swirl pot to the tank. Which its return is the origional. So two returns.

So a loop between tank and pot. Pot and rail. Low pressure pump from tank to swirl, the high pressure to rail.

I am a strong believer in seeing your dream! making your dreams reality. Dedication and hardwork... something I am not doing right now with my university work lol
 
So if I'm pushing the boundary on the GA engine and I succeed in cracking 400hp with it then I want it to be a meaningful engine

So I airbrushed my cam cover in memory of my late great friend 'Rich' who lost his life on tour in Afghanistan

Uber competitive stage rallying aside. I like to take part in the odd gentle road rally of which I'm still a novice navigator.
Little did I know at our annual awards dinner Saturday night I was to get a trophy for a 1st place. Which was an awesome surprise :)

Brilliant evening and with a new navigator acquired for 2014, I hope to achieve a few more this year
