tooter's manifold adventure... - Page 40 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Captain Slow · 08-23-2012, 01:25 PM

guess I'm the odd man out. I absolutely refuse to lose low-end torque for high end gains. I like my torque to jump off the line. I do mostly city driving so I like having that oomph to take off from stop lights.

^ So, for your needs, flywheel > intake manifold

Captain Slow · 08-23-2012, 02:33 PM

yup. that's also why I just ordered the lightweight crank pulley from you, want to free up some torque.

^ I'm calling your boss.

tooter · 08-23-2012, 05:18 PM

OK guys... the suspense is finally over.

The tooter manifold is officially all show and no go.

Here's the results for the wagering pool:

+1 peak horsepower -1 peak torque

Now who's going to break the news to Billiam that he didn't win!

While the peaks were very close, the tooter gave up performance everywhere else except for a few places. I'll post the graph when I get in from work this evening.

cali yaris · 08-23-2012, 05:19 PM

^ You get BIG LARGE respect for seeing this through.

and what timing... we get our working prototype tomorrow.

to... be.... continued!

What, only +1hp/-1tq... What about all of the glowing reviews from your butt dyno.

Captain Slow · 08-23-2012, 05:34 PM

sorry to hear that, but still, cool project.

BEEF · 08-23-2012, 05:36 PM

the fact that you did go through with it all is a big deal. you're just a guy, not a big company. that does make a difference too.

all in all, an awesome project. it does still look impressive under the hood too. and currently nobody has one like yours.

Psycological like most butt dynos.

That's too bad tooter. Was really hoping for something atleast on par to what CAI/SRI gives.

Now bling that sucker up and bask in your sculpture.

Jason@SportsCar · 08-23-2012, 05:38 PM

It was a good effort. If someone isn't the first to try, and often fail, we never learn.
