^^^that shot of that whiteout has me saying 'Yes yes yes!'
I met zack Ryder btw Hehe yeah totally random, but him and CM are the only ones I find good looking.
Omg zack was so tall I had no idea!! I was like 'this was meant to be' haha

Also my friends and I like to joke around the Kanes mask is made up of fruit rollups lol
-yep random thoughts are random

Gunnars are great my friend who is a optometrist actually recommended them and they are good when I remember to where them.

The light went away again, but if it comes back I'll switch the sensors around, that should tell me if there is a wiring problem before the sensor harness.

I've heard a lot of good things and read a ton of reviews. As a sysadmin that stares at computer monitors all day long, are they worth looking into? I'm just afraid the color will drive me nuts.

You get use to it, if you are starting to get tired eyes its worth the cost (how ever you can get them from amazon or woot for cheaper)

@serialk11r

Playing around with airflow consumption at power peak for a bunch of motors. Maybe a better evaluation than hp/L?

New Vette LT1: 0.685hp/cfm
MR-S/'rola 1ZZ: 0.689
Celica GT-S 2ZZ: 0.745
458 Italia 4.5L V8: 0.786
Twins FA20: 0.809
S2000 2.0L F20C: 0.819
S2000 2.2L F22C: 0.792

Wait, what is this? I don't understand what you're calculating.

Horsepower per ingested air at peak power.

Power divided by Displacement times rpm (divided by 2 because 4 stroke).

So instead of hp/static displacement, it's hp/gross airflow, based on rpm at hp peak. (I converted to cubic feet per minute.)

Oh, that's specific torque lol. "gross airflow" is wrong because the engine doesn't suck in its full displacement necessarily. Power is torque * engine speed, so power/ (engine speed * displacement)=torque/displacement = specific torque.

Yea, so much for the LT1 "breathing well at its power peak" :P

OrbitalEllipses · 01-15-2013, 01:39 AM

So basically how well air is translated to power, in layman's terms.
