The ones posted, not the attached ones although John may chime in on that as well. The ones attached are less critical IMHO however you should warn viewers in your post when they're big.

The key problem is the usability of the forum is impacted for viewers especially when their screen size is limited. My screen's at 1280 wide and I still have to scroll to the right to use it (since the reply links are on the right side of the screen). The general recommendation has been to keep pics at 800 (or IMHO even 1024) wide.

The other thing affected is download times. On the road, those 350MB images can get painful especially when your viewing them on a cell phone.

Thanks.

I don't think that's going to end well.... I'm sure I understand what you are trying to accomplish but I believe you've executed it incorrectly.


Any ideas for improvement, and where will go wrong. Thanks!

What you do is change the resolution and re-upload to photobucket. Edit your post and use the new links to those resized images. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

I assume your trying to make an anti-surge housing on the front of that turbo?
the ports are in the wrong place I thinks, not to mention the turbo/engine combo you have doesn't really warrant it imho... assuming i'm correct in geussing your intended goal there, if not just ignore me <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

I know for a Antisurge need to have the slots lower slightly below the start of the fins. But what I actually Hope for is a bit better airflow by getting a slight velocity stack inlet and allowing to have a constant inlet size. Plus maybe it will make some cool noises like a whistle! Not to mention much bigger and cooler looking!

A really small turbo needs all the help it can get! The slits probably reduce flow actually but o well maybe the other modifications can overcome that.

Stands on soap box (ignore if you like :P)

Dude...... Why did you remove all the Pictures... I re-sized them.. Besides was only 1 big picture and it was uploaded as an attachment and as far as I can tell no way to remove attachment. But I changed my link and was only showing big because of a Quote that included the large Picture.

Not sure why but I re-sized the original pictures on photo bucket and it didn't seam to change what the files where on the links even after i updated the link. (maybe was loading for local cache?)

Also Why cant a user change their original post? I cant change the wrong picture links and like you said give a warning its big files (cant change name of the thread). Never been on a forum that doesn't allow you to modify your own posts.

Seams like a few updating to the forms could be done, dont get me wrong I love it here, but in the last 10yrs I have been a member here seams really no improvement from technology I use my laptop which is also pitifully low rez (1280x or something) and never once had a problem with my picture size or even larger! I REALLY hope these new laptops dont use this disgracefully small rez (cell phones are getting higher rez even!)

But I know not everyone is so tech savy, BUT almost everyone likes good pictures, just wish the form wouldn't go crazy for it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I have never once thought wow I wish that picture showing a mod, maintenance, or something to help overs was smaller or less detail.... almost always the other way.

Gets off Soap box <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />

had to shorten the insert and bevel the edges to work but its working!

Now working on the intake! Idea is to make the stock intake not suck, to make it blow!!! Boost that is!

Stock vs Slightly opened up

Ground TB for a little more flow

Use second TB with flapper removed for spacer about 1.5in, then a plate under it so its a smooth surface under the tb.
