Wasn't me... I left before that. I couldn't bear to see that! It must have been Bryan (BNR).

You should have came to the BNR BBQ that we had back whenever it was...

thanks...



here is an updated engine bay shot...





new mods...since the last shot.

C4 electric air pump, in the stock battery location...running off the fuel pump resistor (~9V)

MSD 6A ignition amp, also stock batter location

Blingin' PS pulley, gf bought that for my b-day

Greddy catch can, near the upper radiator hose.



LATEST MODS...not shown

aluminum heat shield that covers the thermal wrapped upper rad hose and 3" aluminum duct from the passenger side oil/tranny cooler. I did the leaf blower test and works awesome, sorry no pics...thank god, haha. I was seeing really scary intake temps at redline with 17psi (without WI), so I needed to take action. I can hold my intake temps down with WI and the new ducting...but can't keep my mind off a VMIC. Who wouldn't want radiator exhaust blowing under their FD???

You can install a pop off valve. It has a preset psi that it will relaese all pressure from intake tract to prevent overboost. Say you turbo is about to over boosts to like 20 psi. You set your pop off valve to 10 psi. Anything above 10 psi it will open like a BOV and vent all pressure from the intake. You get a huge rich condition but you don't overboost.
