My Car runs
 
After my headgasket blew(without the turbo on the car)on monday My car finally vame to life today.
need to set the timing better though.
It runs on 450cc injectors with the trailor park hack for now...when the turbo is on I'm going to chip the ECU.

I have been in that boat for about a week now. I'm still waiting on a head gasket and a set of ARP head studs. :'(

I had to wait 1 day for mine..well it's an aftermarket OEM replacement though.
My engine is now almost al new...i replaced the axles last week.
Put another head(better one) this week with the new head gasket and another intake manifold with my 450's on it. ;D

Yo Yan,

Nice your car is running again! To bad it isn't with the turbo yet.

B.t.w. you did not miss out on a thing today, that Belgium meeting sucked big time!

Yeah I'm happy it runs again, cause it was dead last monday.
Ohhh too bad it wasn't that good Dutchpug.
Well I haven't set my timing right yet.(have no timing light)
But it ran pretty good with the trailor park thingy.
Although it doesn't work when I start the car...the car revs to lik 4-5k rpm and then goes to normal when there is vacume and the map kick's in.
Maybe that's why sum people have problems with the 450's when they fire the car up and it doesn't fire up the first time..it may be giving to much fuel and flooding the chamber. right now my idle is pretty rough..could be cause of bad timing and the car feels kinda lumpy till 2800-3000 rpm's after that it feels like a kick in the ass....feels much like a big turbo spooling late, but with less power though.
