Re: Individual Throttle Bodies and Improved Airflow

Re: Individual Throttle Bodies and Improved Airflow

aluminum must be separated from any carbon in the matrix by a laminate barrier(fiberglass or kevlar) as the carbon will cause electrolosis of the aluminum and initiate heavy corrosion. but yes you...

Composite layup is indeed another whole set of skills, but nothing that can't be learned. The downside is it requires a small host of various equipment to do properly(vacuum bagging so to say, or...

Re: Individual Throttle Bodies and Improved Airflow

Re: Individual Throttle Bodies and Improved Airflow

Re: Individual Throttle Bodies and Improved Airflow

What are you factoring in for taper in the throttle bores and the ram pipes(v-stacks)??? I've always calculated in about a 1.5% taper per inch in these type of setups to maintain laminar flow...

Re: Individual Throttle Bodies and Improved Airflow

between .15 and .25mm(~.005"-.010") is the range to try and work with but .3mm isn't that far off so I'd say you should be fine. Remember you can always machine things off further though.
