Good day/Bad day <<pics>>
 
The good day:
Helped a friend out by taking out his AEM and loading up Uberdata. DelSol w/ Turbo B16 HMT style. Hooked up my WB and gave it a decent street tune.

Car running good. Small stumbles on tip in/out but nothing serious. Id put up some vid, but I left my FireWire cable at my dads. :P

Bad Day:

It started off good atleast.
Heres my old T3 next to my shiny new snail. SC61 baby.

Put in my shorty radiator with some saws-all help, and some new brackets. Put my Hdata back in so I could datalog the A/F and exact timing that was being achieved.
First impressions? Holy ---- this thing takes FOREVER to spool on a 1.6l lol. I started out at about 10psi, then turned it up abit. As usual, I got some boost creep to 14psi on the high cam. Boy did it feel good, until I saw the small cloud of smoke behind the car, lol. I can usually hear it ping no problem, but not this time. #3 ringlands as usual.

As usual I need sleep and a haircut.

Time for another round of upgrades. Coming back bigger and better. :)

What boost controller are you using?? A 4 psi spike is a ton!! I can just imagine how it would feel if my car spiked from 9 to 13.

Naa, on 10psi there is no creep. I turned it up a bit and it seemed like it did. Hell it was hard to tell if it was creep, or the fact that it wouldnt hit full boost till cross-over. Im using a TurboXS hooked up in a very non-conventional way. Notice how there are lines on both the top and bottom of my Deltagate...

that was in his friends car, he took it out for him to run uberdata, prolly to sell the ems and get some loot, that's my guess :-\
