good point. there are advantages to both set ups. it all depends on what your trying to acomplish. while i have no doubt that a twin turbo set up will work in the contour, i don't care enough to argue about. i'll probubly just go single turbo so i don't have to think as much. if i build my 3.0L well enough it should be fun.

Fact of the matter is that this all boils down to is: real estate. Why don't you shut your mouth for 2 seconds and TAKE A LOOK at a Contour engine bay (w/duratec). There's no fuggen room for two turbos plain and simple.

For example, from the factory (and on the SF kit) the rear manifold goes between the R/H intermediate shaft and the block simply because there is not enough room between the firewall, steering rack, subframe and the engine block to do it any different. Thus putting a turbo there is basically impossible, short of notching the firewall and removing your steering rack and part or your subframe too, or maybe mounting it in the passenger seat! But I guess steering is overrated for most drag racers so - what the hell!

Secondly, lets ssay somehow you fit a turbo for the rear bank back there (and lack of airflow doesn't kill it in the process). No you want (by your theories) to mount the front bank turbo, about the same distance away from the front banks exhaust ports, as the rear - OK, that puts the turbo IN the radiator. Hey - cooling's overated, so lets ditch the radiator.

Finally you'll need to route air intakes and discharges to both of these turbos and back again to the throttle body - oh wait you'll probably want to mount a Skyline FMIC too - well, I guess now you can seeing as you don't have a radiator anymore.

People like you who obviously haven't investigated what they are talking about - and then come on here and start talking like a crackhead - irritate me.

Ah what the hell, do what you want - I've seen people likeyourself come and go before. Sure you may have some knowledge of turbo chargers but your common sense is missing. Typical book-smart syndrome.

Stubborn assclown..........

Lern tu spel...

Nice comeback I'm hurt.



Killing Skylines in a Contour - your dillusional. In the off chance you're able to put 450hp to the ground (which I tout as being next to impossible with the MTX-75 and the Contour chassis/suspension). You're still going to be killed by Skyline. 450hp is peanuts on the RB26DETT.

Like Ren Hoëk once said, "Stimpy, you're wealth of ignorance astounds me!".

Someone ban this troll

How can you be taken seriously when:
A) You can't spell worth a sh!t.
B) Grammar obviously is also a problem for you.
C) You spout off unsupported theories and uncorroborated facts.
D) You have no apparent knowledge of the mechanical workings and consequential limitations of the Contour's drivetrain and chassis/suspension.
E)You couldn't pick out the differences between a Contour's engine bay and a jelly donut.


What's next? Are you going to claim you invented the question mark?

I would rather see you banned for talking nonsense, rather than see this thread locked.

Then if you could pass an IQ test score or 120, perhaps we'd let you back in.

Okkkk... you can goto http://home.earthlink.net/~adrenilin/Index.htm I built an all motor zetec that did THAT to the diffrential I really think i know what the [censored] an mtx 75 is how it works and what it does. No i dont know what a contour engine compartment looks like. I am however interested in the knowledge that the people have on here about the 3l. You can get the hell of my back and shove it up your ass if you dont like what i have to say. Im an experienced engine builder and was making early 14 second passes on that engine. (14.19) (2.078 60 foot)

I would like to know exactly where your knowledge base comes from and just exactly why you think your intelligence level is soooooooo much higher then mine.
