You are absolutely correct in your assertion wicked...however you are forgetting the 'turbulent variable' from the compressor...'more like pis-ing in the wind' literally!! ('scuse my french)...but directionality no matter what becomes inconsequential...now put that theory into a system much smaller, remembering we have a source and a terminal with plenty of wind ÂÂÂ

well i know know its not exactly like N2O but i was just trying to compare alittle bit.
pissin in the wind sucks. but thats a very easy way of putiing it . LOL
and when the AIC dosen't get "boost" it shuts off the extra injectors. so the car will run like it did N/A until i see boost. then the injectors kick in again.

HA HA HA ITS ALIVE!!!!!!!
sweet. i started it up today. NOT ONE SINGLE LEAK. my crossover is good. my ghetto flange is not leaking. HAHAH
don't get me wrong i know its not done, but its running and we are going to do some tuning to see how the engine moves and how the stock wastegate works. im leaving the flapper loose and i want to see if i gain boost and hold it at 8psi. but for now just testing it around the block..
maybe eric will bring his camera

Nothing too special, but its in the street and driveable. but still not "race ready" as you can see my rigged fuel setup. im losing fuel pressure somewhere, cause after bout 20 min or so, i have to crank my engine like a minute before it starts and im not seeing any leaks. hopfully its not my injectors or anything like that. So thats one thing i have to take care of. also my fuel controller is not responding to our lab top and i can't get the extra fuel i would need. I drove it a couple of times, taking it no higher than 2psi and is sounds nice. i did an oops and took it to 4psi. it took off like a bat out of hell. but im not going to test my luck anymore until its ready. but here are just some pics a a cleaner engine bay.....
Eric has 2 small videos of me going past him and you can kinda hear the BOV but i blew oof an IC pipe. but now its fixed LOL

well i need 500 posts LOL... just messing but somone did mention they would like an update... well  there is not much going on. I order the GMPCM program and chip burning hardware. but then....they close down, and i have all the hardware, but no program.. yeahh....all my fuel controling issues keep getting stiffed. MY AIC was broke from the minute i had it, and now this. all this extra money...wasted again..or maybe not. i dunno.
also right now i might be buying the duplex im renting. so ill be a home owner. so yeah now the beretta my go on hold until i get extra funding... i don't need much to finish it, but money will be very tight.., but ill have a 2.5 car garage all to myself...YES!!! and still no videos, due to people losing them or erasing them.
i also just got a GTZ. which im striping and upgrading my springson the black 89. a possible ZO4 kit on either my black 89 or my white 93.... there are so many things i want to do, but if i get the house..the house comes first.
