Just put some blue locktite on the bolts and you should be fine

 

You race at WIR? That's a really nice setup. Just curious is you made that pie cut 90, why didn't you do another instead of using a press bent 90 right after it? Kinda defeats the purpose doesn't it or did you need something with a tighter bend? Your over by Lake Michigan aren't you by like the Sheboygan or Manitowoc area?

 

hows that jackie chan manifold holding

 

Yeah I needed a tighter bend and that worked good. I live close to appleton but I go to school in Oshkosh.

This manifold is a piece of ----! I've welded it about 5-6 times already, its a weekend ritual, every weekend I pull it off, buy a new gasket and weld it up.


Edit: its been over a month now since I've had to weld on the manifold, I think it will be alright now.

 

damn, that sucks. glad i never got one of those. i considered it a few times

 

so how is the turbo running?

 

That sucks i just bought that manifold got a really good deal on it so its alright. Ive seen them manis make over 400hp on an ls vtec turbo and over 300 on a single

anyways you have a nice build going on there, keep it updated

 

Well Its currently parked for the winter, I just got my GM3Bar map in the mail today from xenocron, I cant wait until spring to let it loose, I will def. post up some nice ripper vids.

Well After I welded it up about 7 or 8 times it seemed to stop cracking. I finally said ---- it and re-welded all the seems, stop-drilled and welded up all the cracks. I took a die grinder to radi out the cracks before welding them, and it seemed to do the trick it went almolst a month without cracking, well it still hasnt I just had to put it away for winter.

 

Not bad did you ever take it to get dyno'ed?

 

nope, I've been waiting until I get the tune real nice, those 1000's are pretty hard to tune with, I just figured out the whole injector battery offset thing and that seems to make some diff. but again I dont drive it so I cant really tell.
