Quote:As most people know it's not just about the "PSIzzzz blud" it's also about flow.. Peoples cars have chucked rods at less than 20mph in some cases so it's not exactly as if they're under high stress

How is he wrong??

**btw I have corrected your spelling for you that your "superior intellect" neglected to spell correctly

Flynn Wrote:Implying that rods go when the engines aren't underload. Also implying that airflow increases cylinder pressure when it is actually better to have more airflow at lower psi which will lead to lower cylinder pressures. Higher boost pressure means higher cylinder pressure and intake temperatures which strain both the rods and head gasket respectively.

I'd like you to show me exactly where i put, higher flow and lower pressure is a bad thing?

Umm.. people have had rods go when engines aren't under load, 20mph wouldn't even be 5psi when cruising. I'd also like to note that plenty of 100% standard engines have had rods go, Flynn go crawl back into your hole like a nice little troll

Not necessarily, 20 MPH in second gear accerelating. It's daft of Mark_Hairy and his posse to imply that higher boost pressure doesn't make rods more likely to chuck or head gaskets more likely to blow.

mark_airey Wrote:As midnight says, rod throwing can happen in standard cars.......................obviously they have excessive boost from the factory at a massive 14.5PSI IIRC

and as Darren has said already, HG problems are caused by overheating the car/being on boost when overheating..............

Do you actually read any of the mindless drivel that he posts?? or the asking for answers and then arguing with anyone who answers him in a way that makes him seem like he is wrong in any way! what is the need, and this entire thread stems from a comment made in another thread earlier this morning and is pretty much entirely him trying to cause a fight/slagging off/abusing other members of the club which is un-called for, especially when most of the time its aimed at people who are actually trying to help him! Seriously WTF is the point!

Go have a read, then come back and re adjust you comment mate!

Matt Wrote:Tbh mark it wasn't aimed at you. It was more directed at Flynn. Everytime he posts something he causes this seen above. I'm starting to get tired of it. As I'm sure others agree.

Flynn- It's uncalled for, we are a pretty helpfull bunch and will try to help. But you cannot ask for help and argue with the people that are providing usefull factual information. End of.
