Please define the term BOOST as in a boost gauge of a Spitfire,Lanc., Hurri.?

One "Bar" of boost is equal to one atmosphere of pressure at sea level (or 14.7 pounds). Boost was used of course because as piston engines gain altitude (less dense air) they loose horsepower. Originally with aircraft the idea was to just maintain the horsepower that the engine had at sea level. It was quickly learned however that an engines output could be greatly increased with both turbo charger and super charger technology.\nBoost technology can best be defined by the development over several years of just one car, the Porsche 917. First built in 1969 the normally aspirated 12 cylinder engine was about 650 HP, in 1972 the turbocharged 917-10k had 850 HP, and in 1973 the intercooled turbocharged 917-30 would produce 1,500 HP with qualifying trim boost, or nearly double what it was without boost.

Yeah, sure those "high performance brakes" will give you an excellent boost in horsepower. Wtf? Add a few stickers, and a really large exhaust pipe, and you'll be drag racing before you know it!\n\nAttempt to reduce the weight of the car, and add performance add-on's to the engine and the exhaust system, so the exhaust can flow faster and more efficiently. The "add-ons" will help you produce more power, but weight is an issue.

If you expect an answer, you must phrase your question in a manner that conveys some meaning. Explain what you are asking.\n Does HP mean, horsepower, Hewlit Packard,or Highway Patrol ?

Also, you cant go by just numbers alone.  When a car has X amount of Horsepower and X amount of Torque that means its maximum of each at a certain RPM.  Some cars have high numbers but are slower than others.  My friend had a 350Z brand new.  I had a 15 year old 5.0 mustang stock.  My car was rated around 225 hp 300tq his was rated at 300hp 260tq.  His Z was much smaller and lighter and brand new.  My car spanked his at off the line, rolling, freeway, anything.  My car did not have a good max hp but it had good power throughout the rpms rather than just peaking at a certain rpm.  So you cant go by just hp,tq and weight.  You really have to just drive the car.

This is a tuning chip for an automobile to make it run faster. It is actually an IAT resistor chip, with IAT standing for "Intake Air Temperature". "Widerstand" is German for "resistor" or "resistance". Take a look at the link below.

I don't remember very well I but I red somwhere about a F1 car beating a F16 fighter on a 2km distance.\n\nLet's take an example: \nRoughly a 747 weight about 400tons and has 4 engines of 25tones of thrust. This would lead to a maximum acceleration of 0.25Gs at take off. I'm sure a fast car can do better than that

First, know what your talking about. How can you have "turbo" headers if your running on motor? Turbo headers is known as a turbo manifold, which sends the ehaust to the turbine. \n\nAre you looking to go all motor or boost?

boost controler , hard pipe kit , greddy blow off vale, bigger inter cooler but not to big you will have boost drop with a bigger inter cooler , kn air filter , 3 inch exhuast all the way back , change from a twin turbo to on big turbo like a super 25g is my fav , standalone ems , after all this you will need a new clutch to like a stage3 act is great ,
