I'm sure you'd be absolutely amazed at the depth of mechanical knowledge luking on this site. Not sure why you haven't got the answer you're after yet, but if it's out there, rest assured, they will find it. Loosen up and enjoy life my friend.

aniken I don't suffer from insanity; I enjoy every minute of it Donating Members 4,316 Member For: 22y 19d Gender: Male Location: Sydney, south west Posted 22/07/04 08:33 AM Share Posted 22/07/04 08:33 AM now I understand why none of you can beat any ls1's cause your all kids and dont know enough about your own engines looks like its up to me to make a fast xr6t Perhaps it was the wording of your question. First thing I thought was "wtf is an airflow?" and second being "how the Fck would I take a picture of one?" What exactly are you after a picture of? The air inlet pipework? The plumbing for the turbo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
