Turbo placement

[JOHNBOY66]

Email sent to Hot Rod. I just want to race. What class is secondary.

I got a nice email back from Keith Turk at Hot Rod. I can not run in street race with my turbo aft of the firewall. Basicly unless I make big setup changes Daily Driver is the only class I fit in. Which is fine. Just had my heart set on street race.

Where are you doing your testing at?

Where are you doing your testing at?

Track testing. Pittsburgh Raceway Park or Thompson Drag way.

If you head to Thompson, let me know. I am 10 minutes (if I catch the three lights red) from there.

Or you could go unlimited and have a number beginning with "A" instead of "P".

Plus you could leave early.

You can always do some Banzai passes during testing or after your daily slip is turned in.

I missed that too. I wonder what the difference is in the location of the turbo? Surely it has no performance advantage being in one place or another.

Turbos like the hot gasses close to the head(it has a larger volume/area)... BUT
the cold side is hotter also... and they are quicker to spool
