That's a lot of speed. You're more likely to blow your transmission than your engine...if it's getting enough air, that is.



Yes! Woot!
why would duty cycle cause them to burn up?>
i know countless hondas running 90-95 duity cycle and have no problems....

air wouldn't do anything... like i said you'll dump so much fuel it wouldn't even get run for like more than a minute
