I was thinking about my SuperETA block...
Im really curious what mine will make with the package I am expecting in a week ;)

That's a whole 'nother conversation. When you pressurize a system, you are no longer relying on the atmosphere to "allow" the air charge to enter an engine, you are "forcing" it in.
I actually prefer to make an engine as strong as I can BEFORE adding above atmo. The old saying "lower the compression, add more boost" is moot in modern days - when generally, if you have a strong engine and add boost, the strong engine will always out perform a low compression over all - just keep in mind when you have a lot of added static compression and add boost, your tuning window gets extremely small - low compression/high boost engines are very forgiving on timing and fuel delivery, and fuel type becomes critical on high comp.
I am not afraid to boost 10:1 engines. The low compression gig is a fallacy IMO.
I like to say N/A all the way! Anyone can throw a big turbo on a car, not many people can pull big numbers from an N/A engine.

50% more flow from making it a poofteenth bigger? yeah righto....they are also doing it wrong as you need a piece at the end to stop the edges of the exit being rounded over and screwing up the matching of the interface to the head
i had a manifold treated with a similar process (but not EH) the flow numbers improved and so did the balance but it made noticeably less power by 9whp...i got a spare one treated so it wasn't the same manifold. if it made the same power then i could say maybe th operator didn't pump enough shit down its throat, but to go backward maybe the polish isn't so good? the AFR were identical within 0.2AFR the entire run with no tune changes so probably moving the same amount of air but not making power from it so combustion efficiency and BSFC down the toilet. after that i got the MM pulse tune manifold and did a cam swapLast edited by digger; 02-01-2019, 07:38 PM.

on that extrude vid u linked
i don't really know what those numbers really mean but just notice
the very even distribution of the runners.
Seems like a good thing but based on the number differences before/after
is it worth the money vs power you are seeing? Would it matter as much on an FI engine?Last edited by LowR3V'in; 02-01-2019, 06:29 PM.

I just pushed the car into a spot to pull the diff, and something is dragging pretty hard. It's very easy to push backwards, but going forward is 2x the effort.
As far as the 2 engines and the cam, one added lift/duration for more flow with nothing upstream, and the stock cam car increased flow before/after combustion. I have dyno tested headers similar to these and they are worth 5-8whp/tq - but we are missing closer to 10.Last edited by ForcedFirebird; 02-01-2019, 12:58 PM.

I have a feeling the diff is causing parasitic loss. Going to pull it out tomorrow anc check it out.
Originally posted by digger View PostIt's amazing that both graphs are basically identical upto 5000rpm.
So the first has
- standalone ecu

But the second has a IE 272, is it regrind or Schrick knock off ?
New cam.
Two other differences are the first one has 3.73 final drive, second has 4.10 with oil pressure relief blocked (~80ish psi oil pressure max), and first had 10w40 conventional, second had 10w60 (~65 max oil pressure) - but don't believe the oil made the difference as they both were hot enough.
