and no this one is not mine....a friends.

throw sand at the front of it for the vacuum attachment to pick up?

the custom street air filter would be in place

[AJ]

a HEPA filter?

Slash its tires for being in a NWS thread with no nudes.

true street car

 

andyes it will be street driven

I've never seen an angled radiator like that

everything on this car has been custom made

[nurkvinny]

I, too, was grinning at the radiator. That is badass.

 

And I also removed the NWS icon.

[Tripleskate]

Run home to the intarwebs and talk shit about it like a good eThug. j/p

Run, so I don't get sucked onto the grill of that thing..

 

Seriously though, are those nitrous nozzles on the turbo?

 

And does he REALLY need that much radiator on a DRAG car?

meth injection

 

did you say "streetable" drag car.......if so that should answer your question.

 

yes thats crystal meth in a combustion engine......and you thought nitrous was the shit

[ImUrOBGYN]

Needs more propellers. Seriously, you're probably gaining a .001 in the 1/4 just from that. lol

 

Looks damn nice. Radiator is crazy. You tested it for flow, hot spots, etc?

[Mr. Jones]

1. Point, ask wtf someone is doing driving a race car on the streets.

2. Go about my day.

where's the W2A intercooler?

 

Oh and your back jackstands worry me Rob....

Looks like it says Procharger on the blower to me? Looks like it might run ok

[Draco-REX]

meth injection

Before the snail? Seems like the impeller will just centrifuge the meth out of the air. I really think it's supposed to be injected AFTER the compressor. If you have trouble tuning it, check to see if you're just coating the walls of the intake pipe. Part of the benefit of meth is that it will cool the intake charge, so it should be injected after the air is compressed (and therefore heated up.)

But he's not going balls-out all the time on the street. A drag car does short bursts. A lot of faster drag cars don't even run radiators, and they don't have the benefit of airflow you get from street driving.

 

Don't get me wrong, that's a cool idea for fitting more radiator in there. But I think it's overkill for a drag car and he could shed some weight from the nose if he ran with just the forward facing half.

 

Oh, and because this is CR, I should inform you. If you put a red foam airfilter on that thing for the street, it's gonna look like a clown nose.

looks slow

holy damn

I agree, pretty sure the meth will just get cooked when you run it through the compressor like that.... Might help keep the turbo cool though

[Scotty2Hotty]

Break my neck looking at it.

[DKilbourne]

When is everyone going to realize that this is not a turbo? It's a crank driven Procharger.

hmmm thats a valid point.......but the man building it is quite knowledgeable about setups like this, im sure there is some explanation for this. hell for all i know it may not be meth at all. its def not nitrous though.

 

EDIT- turns out its a water injection system, he says he will eventually run a 50/50 meth and water combo in the future

Same issues.. Even moreso with water since it won't evaporate as quickly as Meth. That's what water injection is supposed to do. You inject it into the HOT air after the compressor so that it evaporates and brings the air temp down (potentially below ambient.) If you inject it into the low pressure area before the turbo, the air will actually be cooler and therefore the water will be less likely to evap.

 

If he's done this before, I guess he knows something I don't.. But from what I'm seeing, and what I know about this stuff, the compressor will just get soaked down. And it will probably go through bearings like crazy as the water drips down onto the impeller shaft.
