Well I finally did a compression test on my car, and 1 apex seal on each rotor is at 50psi, vs the others at 100.. That explains the excessive turbo lag, full boost by 6k...



So I'm going to rebuild it, good thing I have experience with bigturbo rebuild:)



I want a half bridge port too, maybe have bdc do it for me, and upgrade the rest of the **** inside..



And a t66 or to4r https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683473.gif

But damn I didn't even get to really drive this thing, another year summer down... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png

Holy **** dude...that sucks. When I saw the topic title, I was like "nah...cant be his car"... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub..._DIR#>/sad.png



Well, go w/ a full bridge you *****, lol. I'm goin w/ a full bridge whenever I pay off some bills and such, then I'm gonna find a blown T2 and swap my motor into it..thats the future plan.





Best of luck to ya!

Didn't you just rebuild this motor???

He got it used w/ "under 10K" on it..which makes me wonder E, are you gonna be able to get any money back on this deal?

that sucks. always scares me to get used stuff :(

Probably not even worth it, since Jspecs are so hard to get and I don't want to wait around looking for another ******* motor. Even tho I do have a backup t2 motor https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub... But its only going to cost me $500 to rebuild it with new apex seals and such, I'm going to try those new protype ones out https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png . And I want big ports anyhow! Not a huge deal, but I'm getting rid of that hyrbid turbo/t2 hood/polished uim ported tb etc. Time for some big upgrades:)

Your motor was Jspec? I thought u bought one shoreside??

Yea I did, its a aspec motor. But I'm saying If i send it back, they don't have another motor. I'll just suck it up and get some more rebuilding practice.. Gotta have experience if i want my own shop.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif
