[QUOTE="Izso, post: 1063745483, member: 2429"] Alo taikor.. you also know how to say lor. activate according to throttle position in some setups. That's kinda advanced modding already don't you think? And newbies shouldn't be playing with NOS... LOL (Dummies guide mah)[COLOR="Silver"] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 12:16 AM ---------- 6 hour anti-bump limit - Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR] Thanks for that! Always good to know someone's reading my stuff! :biggrin: And I acknowledge your information! Haven't really had a chance to play with a centrifugal SC. Where did you manage to get one? Aiya.. both type of cars have oil filters, both cars use engine oil, both cars have seals, the only main difference is Turbos tend to run [b]much[/b] hotter than a NA car so you'd have to be really careful on the cooling bits of your TC car. And more importantly - how can you [b]not[/b] boost often if you have a big turbo setup? :biggrin: To be honest, I'm not sure about the SVT engine. But as long as the engine has cylinders, pistons and basically work on the same concept as internal combustion engines (non-rotary), most of the time they can be modded the same way as I've suggested. The only thing is different engines have different characteristics so it's just a matter of whether it's worthwhile doing it that way. Take a VTEC engine for example, in particular the K-series engines. These VTEC monsters work so well in the high rev ranges with the enormous amounts of torque once the VTEC opens up.
