I am a ME student at ODU. I understand the concepts of flow paths and backpressure/ exhaust restrictions. Just thought there may be something I was missing out on.
i wish i had the patience to do ME.
i dont have the power in me to school for anything, i had a hard enough time finishing high school without skipping away that 4 years because i was bored. got great grades, but couldnt stand the concept of sitting in a school all day discussing theory.
we have dyno's to tell us what works and what doesnt. and for the most part all engines concept of making HP/TQ is the same general theory.
no replacement for displacement, unless you have a HUGE FUCKING TURBO. lol.
more air, more fuel, more flow = more power/tq
but TUNING IS KEY. narrows it down for the most part.
