lol dude seriously 

I noticed this post has no likes. Good.

I know no one wants to hear the science facts of suppressors. They lower the sound level from about 160 dBA to 110 dBA for 22 LR. For comparison a rock concert is 110 dBA, so is a jackhammer. A table saw is 105 dBA. Suppressed pistols are about 125 dBA and suppressed centerfire rifles are 135 dBA. A balloon popping is…

2004-2006 Porsche Cayenne Turbo, tons of power and tq (450,470), towing capacity of 7,700 lbs, air suspension that auto levels so your rear doesn’t sag. Holds people, not excessively long, good daily driver, also

I read it because I have come to realize that the best Thrones episodes cannot be ruined, even by spoilers.

No, the problem is the Democratic establishment is a bunch of morons. If the Clinton team couldn’t tell they might just possibly have an issue in Wisconsin when they ignored the state for the entirety of the general campaign, or Michigan, when Debbie Dingell was all but screaming to the DNC that things were going…

I’m surprised by how many people think exhaust wrap is only to keep surrounding area temperature down. Its main purpose is actually to keep the gasses hot inside to increase the velocity.

If you drop the temp of the exhaust gasses pre-turbine, you reduce either the pressure or the volume. You want high volume at high-flow at high pressure pre-turbine to impart the most force to the exhaust turbine. This is the main reason people ceramic coat their turbo headers or wrap them with exhaust wrap.

They operate on pressure differential man. Reduce the temperature and pre-turbine pressure goes down. You can only reduce the pressure post-turbine to atmospheric levels, so that pre-turbine temp matters a lot. At a given mass flow rate you want the EGT to be a high as possible without damaging components.

Basically. The ideal scenario is to get as much exhaust energy into the turbine because if it’s sent out through the cooling system or radiation it’s simply wasted. On a turbo car it’s actually more important to thermal coat the inside of the exhaust manifold than the outside. Keep that heat in the gas!

No I spent all my money on forza DLC

Just think about how much money he’ll lose when he goes to sell it and you’ll feel a lot better.

I don’t know, adding direct injection to the top motor, changing the transmissions, and adding magnetic ride control seems like some pretty big updates to me.

I like Porsches...and turbos, and Porsches with turbos with manual gearboxes. I also like Porsche with turbos and manual gearboxes and Alcantara interiors (I know it’s a mess, I don’t care).

The fun part is going to be figuring out who’s a Host and who’s a Guest.

Wrong way. The horse keeps hitting humans.

That’s an elitist statement at best, ignorant at worst.

Slower in turns? Please explain how you reached that conclusion.

Baby Boomers: Millenials are just terrible.

Claiming that it’s bad engineering because not even racers use it is a bit backwards. Racing is dominated by the rules. F1 and MotoGP can’t use DCTs because they are classified as CVTs. Many things are restricted to slow racing down to ‘safe’ levels.
