ok so one of these days i want to build a 1000+ hp motor for my T-type. Do you guys think its possible still being hotair? i mean i would use a ta alum. block and heads and just build the piss out of it. and run like a 80 series turbo or something. custom intake that will support the build but will keep the turbo in the back like it normally is. i would want it to look like a stock hotair just on steroids. what do u all think. possible?

I am no expert and HATE giving "It can't be done advice", but in in round numbers: 1000HP would require around 1500 CFM. Probably more like 1500 - 1800 with a hot air due to the reduced density. It is doubtfull you can get a turbo in the stock location that can flow that much air.Boost231 said:
Maybe with a build motor and a 300 shot of NOS you have a chance. Again, I hope I am wrong.

Not sure if it would be different with a more stock intake or what?

Not much is impossible, but you'd have to be a masochist in my opinion to not use some sort of heat exchanger, especially at that power level. would be a helluva lot easier.

What intake is that?
v3
the v3 intake is the same as the v2 intake but it has a a u bend pipe that connects to the turbo and straight to the intake. it just elimates all the intercooler stuff and puts a pipe in a u there. if you took that pipe off you could set it up for a intercooler.

I would love to see it though. It can be done but finding someone with the time and money is a different story. Methanol motors usually don't use an intercooler anyway so being "intercoolerless" isn't really a disadvantage. Then again, it would be nicer to make the power on gasoline. It's too bad the local dyno shut down, it would be cool to see the power my dad's stageII would lose with a "U" pipe in place of the intercooler.

1000 hp....hmmmm....
For 1000 hp hot air, I would guess the TA block and heads....some type of hemco or such of a plenum (no-IC), 2 stage nos, or tons of meth and alky, girdle of course, forged everything....custom 1 off cam, roller everything, 4" or better exhaust, 200 lb injectors, no maf, prolly 4" TB, dual fuel pumps, f.a.s.t. management....or DFI, major port work on those aluminums!!!! god only knows what else!!!
If I had the $$$, it would have been done by now...but as with every automotive enthusiast...including Jay Leno...sometimes there isnt enough $$$
Awesome idea!
