FuelTech at Hydrodrags 2024!
You have been already following my jet-ski sagas when I purchased a Yamaha FX SVHO that started everything, when getting upgrades and a FuelTech FT600, the idea was to have fun on the lake on weekends, but as you know, I ended up buying another Yamaha GP1800R SVHO and I got very excited, the world's first compound turbo supercharger build running a Garrett G42-1450 with 79mm by 75mm and a 1.28 A/R housing) with the stock SVHO HKS supercharger.
This jet-ski was made for high performance, for high-level competition, with a huge build and an almost endless effort to have everything working perfectly, there have already been some attempts to go with compete with it, however, in the meantime since the last test in which it cracked the cylinder head and then we set out with the strategy of using the cylinder head from the Yamaha 1.9 2024 model, which has some differences compared the previous one,
I will show you all the details in this episode.
It is still a moment of solidarity regarding everything that is happening in Rio Grande do Sul, many of you already know what is happening, however, the message I left in this video is about reconstruction. Our state will need a lot of strength at this time for the economy to come back again, there are many challenges ahead awaiting us and I want this content to be an encouragement for all of you that have been affected directly or indirectly, it is not time to give up, it is time to continue swimming with strength and a lot of unity, That's how we're going to save our state and that's how we're going to smile again.
We are asking for donations that will go directly to our FuelTech employees that have lost everything in their homes, there are more than 18 families who need help, if you wish to donate: https://www.vakinha.com.br/4737961
