If you prefer the sound of a stock exhaust over aftermarket then you just havent heard the right aftermarket.

Fast Intentions with stock cats and 18" resonators is an aphrodisiac. Zero rasp, zero drone, exotic, zero reason to not love it.

Meaning that the coolant stays in the heat exchanger longer for more cooling efficiency. In addition to that the Intercooler itself is over sized for the 1 and 1.5 kits. as well as the supercharger will not be maxing out its capabilities meaning the whole unit will stay super cool.

I didn't mean cooling issues with respect to the unit itself, or the intercooler -- just the general buildup of heat within the engine compartment that gets into everything when running a FI system...raising overall temps.

An active venting arrangement could pull cool air up and out through the hood, which would help when sitting idling. Small high-speed fans could be mounted in the hood, with electrical wiring running up the back near the hinges. Perhaps this might offer a good compromise slightly narrowing the differences between water and A2A.

Just a thought.

We have designed a cog belt system that is direct drive off of the Crank Pulley assembly. We have an adapter for the Stock crank pulley assembly and we are already working on a unit for the ATI unit as well. We are making two different versions as stated above. The choice is your which one you want to run. We can also supply the ATI dampener for anyone wanting to upgrade as well.

For those wanting to run larger than 70mm we can port the intake tubes to match. It would be a custom order at that point. just send us the Throttle bodies and we will send them back fully ported and setup for your application.

That is the reason we are using a vented hood as a base. The hood bump will be vented in the back to allow airflow out the back in the low pressure areas. You will also have vents either side of the hump to concentrate on relieving heat above the header area. There will be plenty of heat extraction with this hood. We have bullitt designing this hood for us and he has a firm grasp of what is needed. He has a good vision of the design and the capabilities to put together a sick product. Adding any more electrical or mechanical complexity just drives up cost and reduces reliability over a well designed hood.

Needs to be a CARB kit
Needs to have A2A cooler
Needs to have MAF and temp sensors in the right place
Needs to be quiet, get rid of the rattly pulley/bearing noise
Avoid needing a $1000 ECU Tuning package
Avoid needing a bunch of misc upgrades to support kit
Produce a real 500WHP with stock Cat and aftermarket exhaust

Yes to all of the above. **** water-to-air.

I say this as someone who runs water-to-air and plans on going air-to-air.

F-U-C-K water-to-air. End. Stop. Speaking this from personal experience.

Then you will never run a positive displacement blower as they require Water and Water only. Water to air isn't terrible. It only is when it's under engineered for a given amount of horsepower.

PD blowers can make some insane power and keep intake temps under control, when they are designed correctly.

To say they are Crap is saying that cars like the cts-v is Crap. Guys are pushing that setup to over 750whp, on water without issues. It was done right.

Daily driven Whipple vettes and stangs are making 800+ to the wheels on water all day.

Don't count it out, but the design needs to be legit.

Man cant wait to see the hood Bullitt comes up with, I hope it keeps the smooth rounded modern lines of the Zed intact - Cant say I was a massive fan of the original hood render on the white Nismo, i thought it was a bit boxy and rectangular.

I always liked the e92 m3 v8's subtle powerdome hood. Vorsteiner made a mint with a GTS3 version looks the bizz!

Obviously our dome would be a lot bigger.

WillVHR · 02-18-2017, 06:24 AM

Is this going to be water-to-air setup?

Personally, I'd like to see a hood that has styling elements of the 240z in it.

I'd hit that and I didn't even want vents. Please, someone make a version like this for the G/Q.

What were you thinking - got any pics?
