well thats how this weekend was spent. it was a lot of hard work but it was definately good times..... sorry that the pics arent all inorder but im tired and im not waking up till monday morning. everyone did well at the track there were no blown motors this time. julio almost got stranded(car stalled and didnt want to start anymore) until donald125 found stupid ass fuse that was blown and the car started right up. it was really crowded at the track today so i only got 3 runs in, my best run had a very shitty 60ft but i still managed 14.4 at 102mph@10psi on a zc.... stealthmode said he got a 1.9sec 60ft outta the hf...... well thats all i can think of right now im off to lala land...

I love julios shop light, I'll have to make one of those for myself whenever I get motivated. that guy who slept in julio's car needs a bigger turbo, a td05h on a gsr just isn't going to do it for me.

Well, the track was crowded due to the UTI mechanics school field trip with all of thier cars. Also they made a special under 10 sec. day for all the other cars that showed up that usually aren't there.

My first run I didn't look at the boost gauge, but the afc had a peak of 6psi. I did 14.3. I thought one of my couplers had to be leaking so I re-tightened all of them and went out again. 5psi steady with a 14.5. WTF? The electronic boost controller was set at 15psi and I'm only getting 5. ??? We figured out that the bolt that holds the wastegate to the compressor housing was loose and the wastegate wasn't closing completely. Tightened that and did a test run. I hit 15psi and I went to do the last run. The car fucken hauls at 15psi, so I'm always ready to rip ---- up. I hit first gear and the ---- was crazy. I got a 1.91 60ft time right before my charge pipe let loose. Once again, the hf doesn't want to hold 15psi. ::)
I just got a shipment of good pipe couplers, so I'm gonna change that and go run in the 12's like this bitch was made for. It wasn't a great day, but I still drove it home. :-\

I can't wait until I finish my lsv so I can say I run 15psi. stealth, have you ever considered charge pipes made out of this revolutionary new product called metal?

Re:BOOST IS CRACK another so cal weekend 56k....hahahah
 
It's not the charge pipes, it's the fucked up rubber couplers from home depot that get me. I just ordered alot of purosil couplers that I will be offering here, but it seems I need them more than anyone.
I can only say I run 15psi because that's all my gauge goes to. It could be 16. lol. My goal in life is just to peg every gauge except the temp gauge. 8)
