450hp "(NOT)enough power" project

Silly me, I though you'd go for the standard motronic managment
Yes, then i understand.

i am not smart enought for motronic.

when you going with 20km/h, the air changing much faster in the air filter area, than the engine use. if you go faster, its changing more. i measure the intake air temperature in my ecu. nothing big different, only when you stay in heavy traffic. if you stay in heavy traffic, you dont need cold air.
here is a link

I have measured 60 degs at the surface of an open (but shielded) cone filter on a day with 14degs ambient, going 50km/h+ That translates into a massive power loss.
The turbo/manifold area of the I5 gets way hot. The designers even put heat shields on the sealed airbox..

i allways measuring intake temperature. geting hot on heavy traffic. the air has no time to geting hot. did you mesured how much air needs the i5 engine in one sec on 6000rpm?
did you measured how much air changing at 90km/h under the hood? i think lot.
i learning this, long time ago.

The IAT's will naturally rise even more at low speeds in heavy traffic. However, the hot components will continually heat the surrounding air, and an exposed filter will suck it in. If this was not the case, you would measure ambient temp (outside temperature) at the filter surface. Temp at the surface of the filter represents the temperature of the air before the intercooler.

seats arriwed

[Rusty]

Nice but you'll be getting them re-covered then?

yes. that is why i looking for quattro satin cloth

[Rusty]

Best get buying Avant rear benches then!

What the seats out of or are they off the shelf Recaros?

[aronmatic2]

the engine ready. i am waiting for couple of parts from usa and the im from polisher.

[aronmatic2]

no post long time ago.
i had 3 days for work on my car.
it needs the wireing for standalone ecu and the exhaust system.
i have one more week for finish the engine bay and the suspension,brakes and the rest.
maybe in end of september.

[aronmatic2]

today i had few hours for work on my car. i nstalled the brakes.
i made some photos for my headlights.

Aron are they PCCB's or did you just paint them yellow ?

[Acidburn]

Just wondering like andy casey was - what are the seats out of, they look well nice, kinda sport quattro ish.

also what are the brakes on the car, front and back?

the brakes are from cayenne turbo with 355x34 discs. i painted them yellow.
the seats almost same as sporty. it called recaro classic c.

[Acidburn]

I like the look of them brakes, how easy is it to make the brackets/make fit? is there any hard to do custom parts?

And any idea what size rims are needed to clear them?
