You are 100% correct.

But the beef is over guys who think they know trying to prove the other guy wrong.
Its about cumminforum guys who think boost is directly porportional to air. And don't realize power comes from maf flow.
Its about cliques of rich boys with built trans telling other members they need to do the same to be cool. Well some guys are damn good mechanics just getting by and moneys tight. And I bet its hard to humble themself and come hrre and ask for help. Only to get the normal get a full build. I wouldn't let anything else leave my shop attitude. Well sometimes the man can only afford a patch and gets no help.

That is my concern and in the end it does not have much of an impact. But I decided I was going to speak my piece on this and stand up for myself and my beliefs.

You are correct. There are a few people who post crap on the forum that don't have a clue, some of them are posting in this thread, and some of them get their avatars and signatures changed...

Believe me, I understand. What you don't seem to understand is that unless you are changing the density of the air, you can't increase the flow of air through the heads without increasing either boost or RPM. At 20 psi, the stock turbo is still very efficient, so the bigger turbo will not be providing any better air. I think I have proven I know how to make power. What have you ever done other than put out poor quality work and screw people?

Now that's a quality reply. Just what I was looking for.

You just have a bit more to learn about turbos, and maybe the "lanham act" :)

Holder, you didnt go by "gmdieseltech" a few years ago, did you? Try to go after Merchant for using the same name? Your postings sure "sound" like that guy, and quoting the Lanham Act was one of his favorite lines....

I personally think the DD Staff should bounce you instead of just humoring themselves, but its not my call.

I would also like to clarify that I am not speaking of anyone in particular, just a general statement.

This thread has not proven a damn thing about mods doing as they please, which I could care less about.

The only thing this thread has done is make the entire forum look bad. pretty funny how this cloud of shit seems to be following a single person.

Josh, I think this is an interesting topic...if I may ask a question here...

By creating a denser air charge you would be getting more molecules into the cylinders and therefor be able to utilize more fuel and yield more power, right?

But creating a denser air charge technically isn't "flowing more air" is it? Technically speaking, the heads still have the same flow properties and ability, am I correct in thinking this?

I thought the only way to truly flow "more air" is to increase the volume potential of the head itself, isn't it? regardless of how much boost or rpm your set up makes and engine turns, don't get me wrong here, I realize (to a vague degree) that engine rpm and boost/air density matter, but when it comes down to it, don't the heads flow potential and cam profile have the greatest and final account to air flow?

Thnx

First off what would it do for you to find out WHO changed your avatar and molested your sig? NOTHING!

For the record it wasn't me but if it was I would straight up tell you I'm just as INTERNET keyboard tough as the next guy! If it was me it would be a dunce cap sitting in the corner on a stool avatar! :D


Then we have those that complain about these types of threads post in them complaining like someone was twisting their arm to even read this stupid thread then just ignore it. You know the real reason is you love to read the drama otherwise you wouldn't read it or post your diss like for that matter!

In saying that I do agree it is a waste of space but who cares? Don't read it it will go away soon enough. We didn't start it but we sure can end it. Soon enough! :D
