I turned the boost up to 20 psi and started doing some more tuning a few weeks ago, but I got carried away and blew the headgasket again. I'm gonna get an ICS Titan or something this time. Stock replacement gaskets don't like my hamfisted tuning methods.

I guess you've gotta blow on it HARD when you've got low compression and a heavyish (~2900lb) car. Maybe 30 psi is in order. :y

Hum 30 psi+ hx-35= a good time. Can't wait for some more vids >:D

I just ordered an ICS Titan... probably won't seal without a little help (Permatex ----) since I'm unwilling to remove my rotating assembly and have the block decked.

In the meantime, I helped reinstall the turbo and made a screamer tube for my buddy's Seca 650. He just bought a Hayabusa, so I hope he'll sell me this bike soon:

Yeah, that's the stock turbo. :y

That truck isn't mine - mine is a couple years newer and a little bit bigger. Doesn't look retarded like that one. :1
