    Does anyone know where you can pick up a custom pulley?

    BTW, if you do get one, I'd be glad to know what you think of it, as I would still consider it.

    Does anyone know where you can pick up a custom pulley?

    Adam, we had planned on something similar for my Novi setup, Chris Jensen at DC Performance was organising it, but unfortunately the one which arrived was the wrong offset, and we ran out of time to go any further with it. I take it you want this type pulley to eliminate belt float at high rpm ...

    looking for ALOT more power for 400 bucks?

    Water injection works great, but mainly on blown engines and mainly as a detonation suppressant. If you arn't near or beyond the point of detonation, the gains will be negligible. Due to the fact that injection only happens near full throttle or beyond a certain boost level, the duration of...

    Viper SRT-Coupe Production Changes

    I agree. Looked at the SRT coupe at VOI and it just didnt come together.....a bit boring in fact. Too many conflicting lines, especially round the rear bumper. I didnt get an adrenaline rush looking at it. I did when I first saw a GTS and I did when I saw the Concept coupe.

    Vacuum pump tech; free up that hidden horsepower

    Re: Vacuum pump tech; free up that hidden horsepower This is an interesting post. As an aside I read an article about an engineer who joins 2 Yamaha R1 motors together to make a 2litre V8 for use in cars such as the Caterham. Individually the motors make 150 bhp each with wet sump lubrication...

    Survived the Silver State Classic

    Bob, did you get a copy of the results on the shootout, I'm interested to find out what the speeds were like, but I dont think the results are on the silverstate website. The shootout was great fun , just wish we could have done the race on Sunday, just didnt have time to sort that one out...

    Irish Viper and DC Performance wins Silverstate Shootout !!!

    Thanks to everyone who helped out, and to the organisers of the Silverstate for making the event happen, it was an absolute blast. The car performed flawlessly, even though the power was substantially down at the 6400ft altitude. We think that the normally aspirated and supercharged cars must...

    On my way in a few hours. I've met that driver, you're right, put him behind a wheel or on two wheels, just no concept of fear or danger at all. In fact one cool dude :cool: Thank goodness that car is prepared by DC Performance and Chris Jensen tuned

    Gen1 removing cats Good or Bad????

    Another advantage.....the sills run much cooler than even hi flo cats. Get thee gone oh cats of hades. If the Skunk runs without cats, it must be good ;) Ireland........land of potatoes

    Best Home Alignment Tools? (Race Quality)

    I use a smart camber gauge, laser level, laser toe in/out gauge, string, and a homemade "false wheel" on casters, so as I can get at the adjusters with the car on the ground. Works quite well, but takes an age to do.

    Gen1 removing cats Good or Bad????

    Much louder, especially over 3k, smelly, objectionable and generally anti-social. :headbang: :2tu:

    Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, "Fastest shifting transmission"

    Re: Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, The from zero "traction control" sounds like the traction control available in the AEM management system in that it measures engine acceleration in each gear and compares it with a preset max rpm accel rate. If it exceeds this, it cuts power back.

    Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, "Fastest shifting transmission"

    Re: Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, Makes sense, but how to release them softly ? and how does it downshift smoothly, I imagine there is no facility to automatically match rpm to gears, so is it neccessary to use the clutch when downshifting and "blip"

    Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, "Fastest shifting transmission"

    Re: Zeroshift: synchroless T-56, I assume that Flatliner is a means of introducing a momentary throttle cut as the gears are changing to relieve the load. If this is the case, is it sensed by a strain sensor in the gearknob ? Does it then interface also with the clutch switch. A further...
