NickVR6 0 Posted July 31, 2006 I have learnt an awful lot about my engine from the people and posts on here. There are still some that scare me like Chris's latest Hyrdo Dynamics comment :shock: Although not in their league i still tend to assume everyone knows generally about compression, stroke, turbos, chargers, valves, cams etc and how they can increase power and/or torque. However, if you don't, i think this explains everything really well, hey i understand it! http://www.alfaboxertuning.fws1.com/ Yes, i know its Alfa related, but the theory still stands! Not trying to teach about eggs and sucking, but i'll admit i knew sh.t when i started on here, and worse still i thought i did :roll: I'm not naming you all, but there are plenty on here that will not need to read this :notworthy: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lippy 0 Posted August 1, 2006 NickVR6, am still very much a noob when it comes to car and engines but sometimes I find I know more than I realise when reading posts from the many knowledgable folks on here. Link saved - will read at dinner, nice one Nick. Ofcourse every post/link read means another search for funds to pay for the latest "cunning plan" :lol: long may it continue!
