My available power on the a/x track is greatly increased due to the added two cylinders. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif)
If I romp on the throttle it steers around into a spin. And I carry WAY more speed into the turns, so more braking is required. There are other Bay Area locals who will have to deal with this as well. Randal, Andy, Nathan, Britain and others will put their new power to the pavement for the first time as well in just a little while. Learning to drive again is fun yet frustrating.

I suppose the air under the car is used to cool the oil in the sump - hence why the sump has fins on it.
I bet Jake knows the deal with this..... I also wonder how it effects engines on the dyno - do you have to create false airflow to keep the engine from overheating? |
