What's wrong with the Poopra? Wouldn't that be a funner platform? Or is it just fubbared?

Right now spool time sux (don't have full boost until 4k or so) because I had to lengthen the wastegate actuator to drop the boost. It was like a switch with just a spring on the flapper, but the boost spikes were killing me so I went back to the WG. I might try and cut it open and put a softer spring in, seemed to work well for Jeff.

The Supra is slowly coming together, I bought it 2 years ago with a spun rod bearing and have slowly been building a motor. My wife's in grad school in another city so having 2 households kills our fun budget...

Thanks, I asked all my noob questions on the Escort forum... Being a mechanical engineer helps a little, although not with my welding skills :1 I'm going to start running partial tanks of E85 this week and pick up an afpr so I can try a full tank at some point to see if I can get more boost w/out deto. Too lazy to install an IC right now and too cheap to invest in timing control
