Day 2: My DVS' are coming apart at the seams with all this walking...time to hit the Piloti booth for some new shoes. We about had a system overload but have scrambled brilliantly to up today's new product count by 50 percent. But it's still the tip of the iceberg. Economic roller coaster aside, there are some pretty trick products at the show.

AEM ETI Intake Technology
Bigger is better and when it comes to intake systems there are compromises at work. While many applications call for gig pipes the added diameter of the pipe can wreak havoc with the MAF sensor. The fix has been the introduction of airfoils with in the pipe or a reduction of pipe diameter. AEM's ETI Cold Air Intake uses an interface plugged in line with the MAF harness to alter the monitoring of MAF and allow maximum flow without the compromise. Contact aempower.com.

Custom Evo X Engine Blocks
ERL Performance has developed its Mitsubishi B411 block for big boost applications. The Superdeck I system is ERL's feature product. The Superdeck I system replaces the stock cast iron sleeves, with Darton Ductile Iron sleeves and strengthens the block with a fully machined billet aluminum deck support. The Darton Ductile Iron sleeves are proven in race engines to hold over 40 psi of boost. The Superdeck I deck support constrains the top of the sleeve in an open deck block to prevent head gasket failure from sleeve movement. ERL machines a recess into the deck and around the sleeves that precisely matches the deck support. The machining tolerance held in this operation is ±.002" to achieve a precise press fit. The deck support is machined from aluminum because aluminum conducts heat 7 times better than ductile iron. The Superdeck I offer the cooling capacity of a stock engine (open deck block) with the strength of a racing engine (closed deck block).
