dserieskid; rep me if your manifold looks like this ^^^^

when the connecting rods are sticking out of the block; it tends to shut off... ;-)

[BryanK20]

lol.

yes it will shut off,
and it won't start again,
in other words you will destroy your engine.

Read more man, read more posts about this subject, do a search and try to
find some beginner writeups for turbos, and acquire as much basic knowledge about how these things work before you go trying to cheap out on your setup, or do things yourself.

also(and not to be a jerk, this is hopefully to educate others as well),
there are three uses for the word there, there, their, and they're,
make sure to use the correct one. You wanted THEIR for your subject line.

mine didnt shut off. it still ran with a hole in the block.

[Tad]

well i guess if you've got at least one cylinder still going,
and nothings seized up, no reason for it not to keep on turnin, haha.

[Mixelplix]

Their's your problem right they're, you've got a whole in your block!!

Sorry, I had to.

Every Fuel Injected engine is capable of adjusting fuel for different atmospheric conditions, but only by 10-20%.

That make for less internal friction. :)

i thought it was better air flow :P

[Drows]

You're both wrong, its better cooling. Well, if the piston are old, it may help intake and exhaust ^^

dont you love that... lol.. sounds like a subie.. i drove mine with a hole in the block for a mile before i shut it off because i thought it was gonna catch on fire with all the hot oil on the hot exhaust mani...

back to the thread... IF YOU DONT TUNE YOUR CAR YOU WILL BLOW YOUR SHIT UP:p

[X292J]
