i havent made the downpipe yet. vband kit is supposed to be here next week.

it runs good. the bov leaks still so it needs to be fixed

is open turbo safe for a turboed car? jw.

AJxr

open turbo is only for hardcore ----------ers

it good for all out top end power.

seems like it takes turbo longer to spool. and it sounds shitty and also it smells bad and burns your eyes

sorry i couldnt make it out today johnny, I figured I would need a raft or something to get to your place, haha. The setup looks pretty good. Love the garage shots,

no biggie. i was busy since 60am moving ---- out

ill stop by soon and you can have a look at it.

does this wastegate have to be like hardcore muscle man tight against the flange? i tighten that ****** down hard but i rememer you saying you broke the allen wrench bolts with yours. maybe mine is not tight enough and is leaking

i found my boost/lag problem this morning... the vacuum line to the dsm blow off valve was pinched, and everyone knows the dsm bovs are not fully closed at idle, and there was no signal to close the bov when i stepped on it... so it was open a tad while i was trying to boost...

its still rather laggy which kinda sucks.

but i got it on the highway for the first time today and holy ----... it pulls like a ------- freight train. i was only getting 6lbs and it pulls much harder than my old twins at 7-8lbs. and i was getting some wheel spin at the top of 3rd.

it sucks in the rain once its dry i can turn the boost up a little bit. my good ol' engine destoryer crappy boost controller.

Has your headlight switch broken yet? I hate those damn things

Nice job on the kit, hope to see some video once it's running good.

nice setup, i like the welder sitting in a puddle of water .. how much boost do you plan/ what power are you looking for and are you still using a fmu ??
