 911 Turbo. The composite material is a combination of carbon fiber fabric and silicon carbide. Silicon carbide is almost as hard as diamond, with excellent wear and high temperature resistance. These properties make the composite an ideal choice to help transfer the V10’s 600-plus horsepower to the pavement. The clutch-plate diameter is only 6.65 in., which results in a low center of gravity; the smaller the clutch diameter, the lower the engine can be installed.
Sunglasses for your car
A completely new windshield developed by PPG blocks about 90 percent of the sun’s infrared rays and help keeps the interior cool and protect it from fading. The windshield’s blue color provides a striking, elegant effect that helps vehicles stand out in a crowd. The windshield incorporates nanocomposite coating technology inside the windshield so that the coating cannot be damaged or scratched. PPG has produced a limited quantity of windshields exclusively for the Chrysler 300C, Dodge Magnum and Dodge Charger, which were available in 2006.
A cooler car helps to enhance passenger comfort, reduce air conditioning load and thereby improve fuel economy. In addition, the windshields provide haze-cutting visibility. As they would through blue-blocking sunglasses, drivers see yellow-green light through the windshield, creating an effect that users say reduces haze and glare. This windshield will not develop bubbles or scratches as it ages, and the inherent qualities of glass protect the coating and provide lasting aesthetics, optics and durability.
