2016 THS rules discussion thread

[Kip]

Well another year of good turn out and good racing for THS at BG. I hope everyone got home safe and sound.
While it is fresh in peoples minds, post any rules or changes to the rules that you think need to be addressed.
If you want no changes lets hear that also.

Have there been any changes outside of the fiberglass hood?

my car would fit perfect in this class….will you be allowing a t-4 flange turbo….and can you run the M/T Pro's……thanks

my turbo is a precision 6766 with a S cover…..but it is a T-4 and so are my headers...

You are good on the tires, the turbo is another story. THS is a 3 bolt 3 inch inlet turbo class.

well that sucks….ill have to decide what to do then…..just waited 4 months for my TA headers….wasnt building my car for a class but saw this and thought it would be fun, i would be very competitive in this class...

One thought would be to use a 4 to 3 bolt adapter.

Yes I already covered that above. I was trying to help with the headers he has and making a point that he could still use them with some work.

Ok. One may think I didn't know they made one. I'm new to building a v6 ..,. Thanks for your info great one.

What is the legal cover. Thanks.

 

[11.20n1320]

You have to run a E cover. 3 inch inlet and 2 inch outlet. You should read the rules at the top of this section. Would really like for you to participate.

 

[Domenic Friguglietti]

Ok. The rules I see at the top are for 2014. Didn't know if that was the same for 2016. Thanks.

 

[11.20n1320]

I think they are the same, maybe Kip could answer this question more indepth. The people who have posted here have wanted it to stay unchanged.

 

[Domenic Friguglietti]

Ok. Thank you. I'll look into a different turbo then.

Right now from the posts here and talking with people I do not expect much if anything to change. Certainly nothing big like the turbo rule.
