DEI’s New Titanium Exhaust Wrap

September 4th, 2009 Comments off

 

Constructed from pulverized lava rock, extruded into fibers and then woven into a tight weave gives this material titanium-like strength and toughness. This improvement in thermal protection helps reduce underhood temperatures resulting in cooler air intake for improved performance. And less heat in the engine bay means reducing the chances of “heat soak” conditions on vital underhood components.

Titanium Wrap is extremely durable and capable of handling more heat than any other wrap found in the market today. Typical glass fiber wrap is rated at handling 1200 degrees F of maximum direct heat, while Design Engineering’s new Titanium Wrap, using LR Technology, is capable of handling direct continuous heat up to 1800 degrees F and radiant heat up to 2800 degrees F. And because it’s pliable, there’s no need to wet the wrap when wrapping headers or pipes as many do in order to make the wrapping process easier to manage and to get a “tight” wrap.


Available through Titan Motorsports in 1” and 2” widths and 15 and 50 foot lengths, Titanium Wrap will not shrink and because of it’s material structure, it is more resistant to temperature and vibration break-down, abrasions, chemical and hot oil spills vs. glass fiber wrap. Plus DEI’s Titanium Wrap offers an added feature – a very cool carbon fiber look!

Titan Motorsports is now a proud distributer of Haltech Engine management Systems. Haltech makes a variety of products that are used on cars, motor cycles, off-road vehicles, boats, jet skis, outboards, snowmobiles, karts, motor homes, and even aircraft. Haltech’s newest system, the Platinum Sport series, will be replacing the E8 and E11’s. The Platinum Sport 1000 ECU is an ECU capable of controlling sequential fuel and ignition on 4 cylinder and 2 rotor applications (semi-sequential on 6 and 8 cylinders).With 8 Channels capable of controlling injection and ignition duties, the Platinum Sport 1000 supports modern engines with multi-coil ignition systems, as well as conventional distributor systems. The Haltech Platinum Sport 2000 ECU is an ECU capable of controlling sequential fuel and ignition on 4, 5, 6 and 8 cylinder applications, as well as Rotary Engines with 2 & 3 rotors. With 14 Channels capable of controlling injection and ignition duties, the Platinum Sport 2000 supports modern engines with multi-coil ignition systems, as well as conventional distributor systems. It looks like that other Australian engine management system has some serious competition.

Fidanza Announces New 2010 Camaro Twin Disc

September 2nd, 2009 Comments off

For far too long the use of a twin disc clutch meant that you had to sacrafice driveability. They were on and off switches that you dare not use on the street. But when you have a car making too much horsepower for a conventional clutch set-up, what were you to do? Now there is an answer!

The new Fidanza twin disc clutch kits are designed to hold up to 900 ft/lb of torque. This is achieved by using state of the art materials and incredible designs. All this holding power does not mean that driveability is lost. Pedal feel is virtually unchanged and engagement is as smooth as our 3.2 kevlar single disc unit.

THE FLOATER PLATE ON ALL OUR UNITS IS STRAPPED TO ELIMINATE THE ANNOYING RATTLE THAT TWIN DISC UNITS ARE KNOWN FOR.

At only 8 3/4″ in diameter, we have also kept down the rotating mass to further improve performance.

The kit not only includes the pressure plate and both discs, but also a state of the art high quality performance flywheel.

6.5 Carbon organic Twin Disc

  • 600 ft. lbs. torque capacity
  • smooth engagement and drivability
  • Completely rebuildable
  • Kit weighs 33.5 lbs
  • Near stock pedal pressure
  • Reduced rotational mass off the crank
  • Increased power capacity over stock for a wide range of modifications and or driving styles
  • 8 3/4″ x 26 x 11/8 disc dimensions

7.6 Ceramic Twin Disc

  • 900 ft. lbs. torque capacity
  • Semi agressive engagement
  • Completely rebuildable
  • Kit weighs 33.5 lbs
  • Near stock pedal pressure
  • Reduced rotational mass off the crank
  • Increased power capacity over 6.5 for forced induction and extreme motor builds

Great news! Titan has teamed up with audio guru Kicker, and is an authorized dealer/installer for their entire car audio line of stereo equipment. We have been building high performance cars for years and realize that no car is complete without a great sounding stereo system. Titan Motorsports hopes to bridge that gap between performance and style with the latest from Kicker. We are able to get anything from the Kicker catalog. Check out the Kicker website for their latest line-up, and be on the lookout for the all new Titan Audio page coming soon.
