supercharging your truck for cheap

Excuse me, most of the time when they add a turbo for milage, its to add hp/tq to help get the weight rolling easier. Tell me something, when you shove more air into an engine and dont compensate with fuel, what happens, does it run rich or lean????

Its Simple engines 101.

what turbo

Keep your bs grade school questions to yourself ive been playing with carbs since I was 9 and put my first chainsaw motor with a centrifical clutch on my bmx
How about this what does lean smell like
What does rich smell like
And what does just right smell like

One of those is a 2 part answer/ trick question I doubt you'll find with Google

Nice, but guess what, i built my first mini bike at 8..... I had an 8hp briggs on it.
It ran on 30% nitro and 70% alcohol.

Lean its going to tend to run hotter.
Rich its going to be overfueling and bog down.
Just right is going to be just right in the temp range, and have power throuhout the full power spectrum.

nope, all of that is a common sence question which im betting you didnt know a damn thing about.

Tel you what, go back to your little chansaw engines and leave the big boy v8 power to us.

How is your v8 power coming along?


Guy from Vancouver-

I am excited to see what happens. I did see a video once of a cobbled together turbo setup on a small block, only difference was it was a huge turbo off a commercial truck engine and it was really hacked together. Point is it did somehow build a ton of power and the engine did not last, I think you are wasting too much time talking about it on the internet and not putting it together. Living in Arizona I forget people dont work on stuff because its cold, so when do we get to see some pictures? I think all the theory and discussion about air and fuel is covered now, I want to see some action....

Ya I'm just about to start just finishing the 1989 Suzuki Rmx rebuild ill start in the next couple days with the turbo and bracket

What kind of a bs argument is this.....


Well lets think here for a second.... RICH IS GOING TO SMELL LIKE GAS.
Lean will ruin a piston so it will dump the gas into the crankcase.
Just right is just that, JUST RIGHT.

Enough bitching and just put the damn thing together and tell us what happens, im going to stick to my NA engines/ and or supercharged(roots).

Good the heads are currently getting machined, so now i have a few more parts to get and it should be going together. I have all of the valvetrain except the cam.
Found out i need different headers, cause mine dont clear.

Just go look at my thread.

Lean will smell sour
Rich will smell sour hence the trick question but your eyes will feel like there burning form the unburned fuel
Just right will have a faint sweet smell

Depending on the fuel 112 and alky/nitro smell good no matter how they burn.
