The IPGParts.com Race Team traveled to Palm Beach, Florida on June 1st-2nd, 2012 to compete in Round 3 of the Global Time Attack series. It was a last minute decision to take the trip to the event after seeing the fantastic turnout and media coverage of the Round 2 Event at Road Atlanta. Not having a traditional time attack car in the stable of IPG Race Vehicles didn't matter as the Integra RS Street car fell suitably into the Limited FWD Class. Louis Murphy piloted the car during the event. Friday's sessions frustrated the team as an intermittent electrical issue...

Crankshaft Vibration Dampers 101 BY J.C. BEATTIE OF ATI PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS Courtesy of ATI Performance Products - http://www.atiracing.com/products/dampers/101/index.htm I have been around dampers for a long time and traveled to different engine shops around the country to test actual crankshaft twist for the past 16 years. Throughout these years I have collected a lot of information that allows me to make informed decisions on “how much” damper certain engines need. When given the crank weight, peak normal operating RPM, horsepower, rotating system materials, rules about the damper specifications (if racing), and the application of the engine (road racing, oval or...

Turbo Tech: Compression Ratio with Boost

Courtesy of TurbobyGarrett.com ( http://turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarrett/compression_ratio_with_boost ) Before discussing compression ratio and boost, it is important to understand engine knock, also known as detonation. Knock is a dangerous condition caused by uncontrolled combustion of the air/fuel mixture. This abnormal combustion causes rapid spikes in cylinder pressure which can result in engine damage. Three primary factors that influence engine knock are: Knock resistance characteristics (knock limit) of the engine: Since every engine is vastly different when it comes to knock resistance, there is no single answer to "how much." Design features such as combustion chamber geometry, spark plug location, bore size and...
