At a time when many automakers are cutting workers, Ford plans to bring back 1,000 employees to a truck plant in Dearborn, Mich., because it expects growing...
Well, that's sort of the thing. it's not rated for a hp level. It's rated to flow a certain amount at a certain pressure ratio, and as David explained,...
Hi Mark, Thanks for your further explanation. It seems that there are two main reasons that a turbo blows i.e. surge or overspin. On the overspin, I think it...
If you spend a minimal amount of time working with compressor maps and select a turbo to match the intended engine AND application you'll be fine. The whole...
... There's a couple of things you could do, and neither are 'optimal' from a purists point of view, but I have heard of people doing it. One - you can run a...
Hi John, Thanks very much for your kind knowledge. Tomorrow I'm going to discuss with my mechanic on what course of action to be taken next. Regards....
A new version of the Toyota Prius is out there. It's the plug-in Prius, a car with an electric motor. Or you can buy a conversion kit and do it yourself! ...

Do you guys think this guy, the Prius guy, should be removed? He has sent a few questionable posts here. So far his messages have been approved but if the...
I would say to get rid of him. All of his posts have been copied and pasted from another source. This whole list wanders off topic quite a bit but it usually...

... For me, the off topic stuff in general is fine - as it's all a fairly enviable exchange of information and entertaining. Clearly this poster (in contrast)...
For off-topic posts, putting "OT" in the subject line works very well in another list. I suggest we implement that here, too. It allows email filters to drop...
I would say get him outta here, NOW, just for being a stupid enough arse-wipe to think that a pharkin' Prius is good for ANYTHING besides recycling into Bud...
