Default RE: Well here goes nothing

I know it is, I have just started to stretch the legs on mine so to speak. I added a MBC and a stewart warner boost gauge last week. I jumped it to 15psi but my ecu cuts fuel/spark at 12psi. It's didn't for about 3 minutes though and I could break traction on a 2nd gear roll at about 3000rpm. I moved it back down to 11psi but it spikes a little if i'm in say 4th and roll into the throttle to full boost but if I hammer it from second gear on it doesn't. Seems like a ok turbo really. When I get the fuel/timing cut removed from my ecu I plan on running 17psi with a water meth kit. I was going to get another front mount but temps are bound to be good plus I have a crazy *** low 7.6 to 1 compression ratio

If you would like I could take a short vid of the speed-o on a 2nd and 3rd gear pull and post it up in here for you to see.

I found out why Ben had such a hard time finding that right nut for this adapter.

ITS A FREAKING PLUMBING FITTING!!! I just got back from an hour long "walk about" through HomeDepot, Tractor Supply, and Fastenal. LOL But i found it, so monday I will get it all welded up adn ship it out.

And Ben sweetheart, you owe me for this one. ROFL

We can settle up at the end when you are all settled into your new job and have your cash flow sorted out better. I might go in tomorrow and work on it some. I will post a pic when I get it done.

you dont need a uhaul to tow it, just leave the bov section of piping off until you get to the tuner. then its just blowing air into your engine bay. if you have a good basemap on the ecu you will run like that just fine, even with the new injectors.
