find out which side is the intake side (probably the side with big holes in it) then you need to extend a rod out the other side of this pivot and attatch some sort of belt track onto it. i gotta go ill be back later tonight you can aim me: KhaosDefcon

Is it just me, or is this "1 sticker = 25 hp" joke getting old?

Hey I did this projcet in 9th grade for a science fair project and won 2nd. I just tested to see if 2 different source of power with the same input energy (voltage) will output the same amount of energy. I took a 9 volt battery and a 9 volt solar cell, hooking each to a motor fan. I put 2 of the exact same cars in front of the fans and see which one blew the object the farthest and in the shortest time. Good luck.

i didn't know a sticker was worth 25 hp, i thought it was less than that. i was thinking 5-10 hp was the most you could get. maybe i need to put more stickers on. if i put forced induction on my car i would add a -R to the badge on the back. Q45-R would be cool, but without engine improvements it seems like pure rice.

also, are my gold rims worth any horsepower?

you have to have a visiual right? why don't you find out how nitrous works on an egine and do a picture/storyboard of it our you can get real technical and make a power point presentation. My 9th grade science project I built a wind mill that recharged batteries

A wind mill? Sounds interesting, but I'm not gonna ask how it works, purely so you don't have to type it all.

As for the sticker/horsepower ratio, its 15 HP for a sticker that blends with the car, 20 for a yellow one on a red or white car, or something completely off color like that. The big back window stickers are worth 25 apiece. The gold rims... do you run the 1/4 mile in like 2 seconds or what?
