Thread: polished aluminum is a horrible disease

or at the least polished aluminum begets polished aluminum

the new TB setup for the riv... two to three 4in wide 3/16ths alum strips will be welded into oval hoops and angle cut and milled to aim the TB forward and downward to allow the 120mm maf housing a straight shot at a cone filter (we want it to be ungodly loud...i mean its a riv...no one will see it comming, but theyll hear it)


this is getting welded to the oval plate after its machined at an angle, thats a 3/4in pilot hole for the boring head...erics looking forward to the monotony of machining it to 91mm and then bellmouthing it...
and yes...its keeping the cruise control

who knows what evil lerks in that baldnscary head...

do i wanna know how much??

That's the 90mm right ?

yup it'll be mounted on its side (TPS on top, FAST logo towards radiator), its best for the throttle/cruise cables. at the same time the way the TB opens to WOT will be dirrecting air towards the short radius of the TB plenum, hell it cant hurt...

little over 200$ in just the aluminum, turns out though that the FAST is dying to be put on a gen5, i now have drawings for a G5 to 90mm adaptor
