Hello?? What's this??? Frogg's Build Thread

[Frogg]

Just a little preview














Hope this get you guys interested

[codeblack]

I hope you're painting that white

And b00st ?

[Burntricer]

awww, i was hopin to give you a run this summer, while it was NA. oh well ill still give'r a go, just let me turn the boost up to say 15 psi... haha, then it would be pretty close in hp numbers

(take the average rule on an sr that each psi over stock (7) adds 8 hp 207+56 = 263whp)

you gunna be hitting over 300 or what?

[Frogg]

I have already reveled too man y secrets on here so I will try and keep my mouth shut and the rumours flying

no boost this year

[revhard]

thats a fucking sic header. i dont know what there called but those sections where it gets thicker is good to have. i have a honda tuning book i bought and it talked about those and how it adds more hp because it cuts down on vibrations or something. i dunno i prolly know more about it then me so you explain lol

[Frogg]

I believe that you are refering to is called a stepped primary.
What a stepped primary is is a change of pipe diameter in the primary length of the header that allows for a change of velocity and pressure.
You are definetly thinking along the right path Linds, alot of what goes on in a header has alot to do with something similar to sounds waves that are generated by exhaust pulses. A good header will minimize turbulence by reducing destructive interference between these waves and maximize scavenging by creating constructive interference.

All of this mumbo jumbo is controlled heavily by the diameter and length of the primary's and heavily affected by the size and shape of the collector.

But yeah choosing those sizes is still way beyond me

[fast_blue]

Awesome I cant wait too see it man!

[Burntricer]

woot so if your staying NA this year..i wanna race ya logan, we'll meet up at terrace?

[Frogg]

I will be there and you will be in my dust

[Burntricer]

if your not boosting, there is no way you will hit over 300 hp, and i should be over 260...soooo i think it should be close but its all in good fun

[Frogg]

HAHA yeah it is all in good fun for sure!! But power doesnt mean a thing if you don;t have the means to put it to the ground

yeah yeah, im not gunna have a cage, or a new not 18 year old suspension, or slicks for that matter haha..so you'll have me off the line, but hopefully i can catch up

[Frogg]

Works for me!! I ran last year on 12 year old bagged shocks and crappy bushings myself lol!

All I know is the more imports with swaps and power adders we can get out the more fun we can have!! God even a few more stock imports would be awesome!

[revhard]

if logans car is over 200whp NA he'll pump u lyle lol. NA cars are way the fuck faster then turbos. a a 260 280 whp na civic will run 10s

[Frogg]

These may or may not be involved in the project

[revhard]

wow those omni's suck. why do that when u can do this.. aparently its almost the same thing. accept people say this way is cheaper lol

[Celiman28]

damn, someones doin alot of work, loooks goood man

lol... If they suck then why does Stephanie Eggums 7 sec Civic run them ??



What's that behind the tire there

Omni is one of the only company's that make shocks with valving designed specifically for FWD drag racing.
People don;t like them because the spring rates are designed for the track not the comfort of your ass

[revhard]

i was just kidding the omni's are sic i am debating getting a set of those or tiens. i was just making fun of people that cut there springs lol.

[Frogg]

lol missed the sarcasm my bad

Those were my two choices, Tein Flex or OMNI Drag

I'm going with the Omni's because they are pretty much as good as it gets for the 1/4 mile and they coem out to under $1000 lol.... now the trick is to find a set that isn't backordered for 4 months
