TCI Engineering's '72 C10 R&D Project

[DJW32]

Skrape never datalogged IAT's on track. His engine compartment lacked the room to properly build a CAI. He also lacked the grill space for a properly sized FMIC. I wouldn't doubt his IAT's were approaching 200 on a 100 degree day simply because the turbo inlet was pulling 150 degree temps out of the engine compartment.

There would be little difference in IAT's between a centrifugal blower and a turbo if the compressor wheels were the same and both were pulling ambient air into the inlet.



I guess I just defended myself into letting the cat out of the bag. hehe

I assumed boost was going to be used...I didn't know which one. I hear that tall intake will hurt numbers down low, but kick butt on the top end.
