Re: Best way to run the DASH 3rd Valve ?

Anyone, ....in particular wiring diagrams and any relays/switches people used ? I've read about setting a switch or something at the throttle control...how reliable....any other/better ideas....and how would I go about doing this ? ok then, so how about setting it up to switch on and off as above ?

okay, so if both wires are cut (like mine), the 3rd valve will not work unless both wires are grounded ?

So by just having the white wire and red wire grounded then the 3rd valve should start working, right, how does that make sense or work ? :shock:

Comparing two turbo cars would be alot more difficult as I wouldn't know if the Turbo's were the same and what the standard boost was set at for each car. I've seen a SOHC Starion 2.0L do 300Hp (225kw) at the wheels but I reckon 350Hp should be enough to do a mid 10 given 100% traction, very low wei...

Torque comes from flow, not the biggest head possible and if you don't use the head flow to max then you lose torque :x

Torque = Acceleration KW = Top speed ......both are indirectly related to each other but for example If 2 'Factory' engines produce 300Nm of torque, the SOHC will do it at 3500rpm where the DOHC will do it at 4000rpm Here, 8v SOHC 160Nm @ 4500rpm but even more importantly ratio 9.00:1 http://www.car...

Re: Ok

Ok, OK, OK.... If the same amount of money went into engine rebuild , for a SOHC and a DOHC, I think the DOHC will be in front. So where is the power coming from?.... They both have the same bore and stroke. When the piston goes down for its induction stroke, an "X" amount of inlet valves...
