you dont need that missing link if you have a safc and 450cc injectors.

also you dont really need the walbo 255 lph and b&m fpr unless your goin over 12psi.

otherwise it sounds like a good setup, good luck man!

Default boosted

I ran the car today and have a few problems, I only boosted 2 psi, and I am leaking oil like crazy from the return flange, its prolly stripped, but also when I get to 5k rpm the car esitate bog bog bog, the car starts and run with the 450cc, and resistor box, but bad idle sometimes.

I just set everything at -38% and it runs great, boosted to 5 psi, but! but, I smoke like a chimney, seems like blown seals, HOW long does it normally take to stop if this is normal?

-38 sounds pretty rich for idle. Maybe the smoke is just your engine running rich... Rich is black smoke and there can be lots of it. Blueish smoke is oil.

everything is upgraded, walbro 255lph, dsm 450cc injector/resistor box, vafc, fpr,zex cold plugs, msd ign& coil. the smoke is white, and smells like rubber, synthetic oil burning, when I smoke its like a smoker out of a 4 inch pipe, but everything else feels good
