Video request: '84-85 hot air cars

My car is an original hotair car (84 GN)

This is the latest video I have of the car. Since then the intake has changed to a modded 86/7 intake.

I know it has an intercooler on it, but you weren't getting any responses on your thread.

Thanks man, that's a pretty sweet setup you have! Is it true that the hot air cars don't have the turbo flutter when you are in boost and let off the gas? If so, that sucks...I love that sound!
 
Yeah there is no "sneeze"

The sneeze or flutter sound is caused by the pressurized air hitting the suddenly closed throttle blade on the intercooled cars. Well the hotair cars suck air through the throttle body instead of pressurizing the air through it so it technically can't make the sound.

Mine has been changed over to a semi - 86/87 intake system so it does make the flutter sound once the throttle is released.

Thanks for the compliments by the way.

If you would like to see what my current setup looks like you can go here...

You can see the basic history of my car from the beginning (two tone paint) through the wreck and then into restoration, new paint, and different motor variations.
