It’s the anti-supra.
What he didn’t tell you is that it’s only making 12 hp. 😉

I believe it would be foot lb., not lb. foot. This is what a 1000 lb ft Looks Like. lol

hahaha
as far as torque is concerned. 1000lbs at 1 foot = 1lb at 1000 feet.
1000 lb-ft is correct.

The cross product is not commutative.
So force crossed into distance is not equal to distance crossed into force.
actually:
**F** X **D** = -1 ( **D** X **F** )

what i’m saying is whether it’s **r** x **F** or **F** x **r** , both = t.

damn. i am not trying to hate cuz thats obviously a proven setup since you are making lotsa tq…but is that passenger side exhaust flow make a 90 degree approach into the turbo housing?

Did, u do some header flipping or are those made for the setup? I guess Im asking, did u build this from scrath or buy a kit? I wanna build my own sooner or later…but, gonna give my car one season with the present setup (S/C’ed) before switching to a turbo.
Looks good :tup:

That would be true for a dot product, but since it is cross product (ie directional) r x F would be in the opposite direction as F x r
ie 
where b x a would give you a negative angle to the equation

Shit it’s been a while, but I thought Force x distance is vector x scalar. I.E. distance is just a magnitude so all that cross product crap is irrelavent.

I go online to kill some time and take a break from technical thinking and I get caught up in a fucking vector multiplication discussion. :lol:

:ham: :bloated: 😛
Then it would not use a cross product, it would be T=d **F**
