@ichitaka05 Topanga certainly filled out, but I think her face is weird.

A turbo manifold is a header, but a header isn't always a turbo manifold.

If fabricators don't move to superior materials like 321 and manage their expansion/thermal cycling stresses properly for turbo manis like top level fabricators, better than average ones will at least use thicker tubes which is often cast stainless pipe, which that looks like. That's why I specified turbo mani.

She seemed like a nice girl, but I would be worried about her given her background. She made some bad choices in her life when she was young. Hope she cleaned up after high school...

She went to Tokyo university. From the 3rd stage, sounds like she did cleaned up

From the ending of 3rd movie, she seems to be in the cramp school preparing for university exam in Tokyo, not going to the Tokyo University.

And it seems she did ok.

Speaking of Kyoko's black FD, something was not very clear to me. So it is a single turbo. Someone please enlighten me that the difference between the single and twin turbo. I thought the twin turbo can spool faster so it gets the power quicker, whereas the single one needs time to spool. So if you lose spool in a single turbo, like the case when Kyoko was *touched* by Ryosuke, she needs more time to spool up to get the power. Is this correct?

And what does it mean about single turbo is peaky? The torque curve was not flat or something?

Have HKS SuperSequentials gone out of fashion now?? Every turbo build I see nowadays has some lame Tial BOV on it. SSQVs still make the best noise! Why doesn't anybody use them...

It is from about 4/5 years ago. Decent run. May just get a desktop to replace it as we have enough laptops in the house to use plus tablets/smartphones so we're covered lol.

I don't know the answer to your question, but thank you for bringing the conversation back from whatever they were talking about. I thought I was understanding something when Giccin said something about someone doing vibration analysis for someone else. But then she put up a bunch of pictures of cartoon characters and I was completely lost again. Friggin kids!
