It is absurd to see even super expensive builds that don't even have the most basic fire extinguisher, let alone a fire suppression system. Great as always

Big weight savings guy here. Car weighs 2150 race weight, turbo car on m1. Got 3 gallons of cold fire suppression onboard. Also upgraded my suit to sfi 20. I started to take fire safety seriously after watching some videos lyle barnett made. Every racer should watch his videos it will really make you think twice.

Great point about not skimping on the details. Most car guys want to bolt on more power, better suspension, and shiny bling. They don't usually pay attention to wiring, plumbing, and fire extinguishers.

This is great. I’m just a garage tinkerer but I started to take fire safety a LOT more seriously when my turbo RSX lit on fire on tail of the dragon. If there weren’t several people there to help me put it out, it would have burned to the ground.

All wise words, especially when it comes to fuel and high pressure systems on some modern direct injection engines that run 2000 bar rail pressure. Methodical neat fuel systems planning and not being tempted to use cheap mick mouse Chinese braided lines and anodised fittings that have poorly machined thread are key to peace of mind . Fit and forget Anyone else noticed the horrible habit modern manufacturers have of using plastic cam / valve covers? Not very safe in an impact either, we have a BMW S58 M4 engine going in one of our race cars and kinda cringe of the thought of the high pressure injectors getting damaged in an accident 😵‍💫 One last thing that’s always puzzled me , why are race cars not forced to have remote electric safety valves for the fuel lines ? Any engine bay fire or major accident and generally the whole fuel feed is exposed leaving quite a lot of fuel in the feed pipe . A bulkhead mounted valve would definitely help and probably save your car especially older ones that don’t run a fuel pump controlled by the ECU .

How does Novec compare to AFFF (Aqueous Film Forming Foam) for effectiveness and corrosion? I had an AFFF system that got me out of the car safely but did not fully extinguish the fire, and after the fact caused quite a bit of corrosion in the aluminum that was exposed to it.
@motoiq
@motoiq 5 ай бұрын
It is non-corrosive and doesn't leave a residue. There are also some reports of AFFF causing cancer although it's kinda like soapy water so not sure about that. I think this stuff puts out the fire better, like halon but with more post-cooling due to the phase change of the liquid.

The Subaru WRX Community really needs your excellent knowledge and commentary on the new 2022+ platform. Its a 2.4L FA20 engine with twin scroll turbo but comes stock with Equal Length headers which removes the classic Subaru rumble. There is only two companies making Unequal length headers, both slightly different. Can you do your fantastic science talk on EL vs UEL headers on this car, as well as how having the divided collector at the twin scroll turbo vs not divided could affect turbo performance? As well as other air flow and emissions information? Over two years now and everyone is still fighting EPA with this car...

Just kids being dumb that got out of hand, no one trying to hurt anyone or anything. I ended up having to paint the upstairs bar at the Military facility for community service lol.

say you had a tried calling Moto Iq like 10 times for some advice or help ....but never got through to them or ever got a call back and you have a 1969 Datsun roadster with a full jdm 95-96 s14 front clip swap.. (69foo)original jdm harness, fuse boxes , disco potato and even gauges from the Japanese car with the original cars..red w/c ecu all stock swapped in ...running prefect, but the ecu little screw potentiometer was never there when you got it. just an empty hole...and you have a random blinking check engine light that Puente hills Nissan confirmed everything was fine and that it was stuck in diag. mode by hooking up their old consult pc to the consult port the aem wide ban shows a solid 14.7 AFR would you just run it ? what would you do ? thanks if you answer

If you want to talk to us, you need to make an appointment via our website like we say to in most of our videos. We are not 1-800-diagnosemycarforfree hotline. I would say it's stuck in diagnostic mode if it blinks regularly, not in code it's fine. If you ground yourself and open the case, the screw is probably in there somewhere, like it got pushed in or something. If you are at 14.7 all the time, even at WOT that is too lean for anything but idle and light throttle low load conditions
