Re: Something Different
The used to do an expo and competition on a pond near my house crossing with their sleds. It was always fun to go and watch a few of the poor bastards sink. Theres something about seeing a grown man whine and cry like a bitch that is deeply satisfying. Definitely cool to see it done though

Re: Something Different
Water cross is lots of fun, if you sink the sled, you pull the pugs, emty the fuel, and drain it and fill it and go again.
oh,
Boyko there is about a foot of snow in ft mac, and it is snowing hard. Didn't look like there was much in Edmonchuck on my way through.

Re: Something Different
Still no snow so I am not in a hurry yet.
The last time I was in the water I sank....................... 10 feet from the shore. Dried it out pulled it over to start it and hydro locked a cylinder, bent a con rod because of it.
Things have been going slow, I do not like the way my charge tube fit in the tunnel and do not really trust it I think it might crack time will tell.
So I started on my muffler tonight and got it tacked together, So the sound level is one less thing to worry about …………………...lol. It turned out ok and it is not as heavy as I thought it would be. I utilized a divorced waist gate dump pipe and will port the waist gate on the turbo I am told this help spool up and peek power because the exit out of the turbo is more free flowing.

I will try mounting it in the primary dump pipe, might get some lean reading, I hate to stick the sensor before the turbo but I might have to
. What is up with the K and O anyways?

Re: Something Different
Before the turbo will overheat the sensor and it won't read correctly.
I'd make a slip fit extension pipe for the wideband. The idle readings might not be perfect due to the tiny gaps around the wastegate port shroud, but once it gets flowing it should work fine.
