Yay boost!

Aaaand, just because. Here's rallycat sitting in her new throne...

And yes, it'll probably get a good cleaning before it goes into the car and gets dirtied up again.

 

[Ryan]

Do want.

 

[brighton]

Nice. Are you doing the install in winter or spring?

 

[Nigel Prodrive]

heh, there's a matching embroidered Nigel Prodrive Evo 2 seat that's out there somewhere, too.

pop quiz: on a KKK turbolader, what do the initials stand for??!!

 

[Ty Ty]

Eh, we'll probably get cracking on it in the spring. Hopefully be put together and ready for tune around summer. Load in a base map and get it close enough to give the engine a proper break-in period. See if anyone down at DSG knows the 034 software, book it some dyno time for tuning, and then she should be ready to rock.

Haha, nice.

KKK = Kuhnle, Kopp & Kausch. Borg Warner owns them now.

...and what firm supplied turbos to aircraft mfr's Focke-Wulf and Messerschmitt?

 

[Ty Ty]

Craig knows much more aboot aircraft than I do... The BF109 rocked a Benz engine...so maybe Honeywell or Borg Warner.

Merc nowadays likes to use Garret I think, which is also owned my BW.

 

[RyanR]

K04?

 

[Nigel Prodrive]

KKK was an original mfr of german turbos, I'm talking waaay before the Borg Warner takeover.

the FW190 had a BMW radial engine with KKK snail, the ME109 had a Benz inline moteur with KKK snail, etc.

heh, when the Allies shot down a couple Luftwaffe planes over England, they went all over em and copied key parts....like the turbos
