fixed everything. Didnt have to take it all apart.
Did street tunning tonight.
started building boost at 2900.
8lbs by 3500 and 11 by a little under 4k. **** everybody who said it wouldnt spool!!
The car is interesting to drive. You have to shift the tranny super fast (even if you arent clutching fast) to get it to go into gear correctly.
The car is LOUD!! Like way too loud. I am going to have to get some new resonators, and junk the PFS muffler. I will run an eletric cutout on the DP when i want to be loud.
I am going to put the carpet back in the car. Too hot and loud without it. I need to make a shifterboot as well.
it is stronger at 10lbs of boost then my t04s at 16lbs... that says somethin right there..

Shitfire Bobby it was a good weekend for the two of us. I got my car running this weekend too. I am still going through the breakin and sorting out a few bugs (I had to rewire the cooling fan cause I am retarded and I have a small coolant leak from a plug on the electric WP and I have to get a new inline amp that can handle more than 100amp)
I have probably a good day of buttoning things up and I also have a day finishing putting the blets, vacuum pump, alternator, steering wheel, driveshaft and throttle cable.
Not a whole lot. I am taking a 4 day weekend this weekend and I hope I can get it done by the end of the weekend so I can take it to the track the following weekend for some shakedowns.
I have a video I just need to download it which I will be doing tonight.

Well guys one week until I get my 15 minutes of fame on national TV. My buddy running his bike on PINKS in Orlando airs on Speed next Wednesday night. There should be some previews and trailers running after tonights episdoe!!
Apparently the producer has said that I will be highlighted and shown quite a bit on the show cause I talk ****. Big surprise there. They are supposed to be putting my name up on the screen but if they dont just look for the skinny dude with glasses drinking beer and talking **** like it is my job.
I havent seen the episode so they may make us look like bigger dumbasses than we are but oh well such is life. Put it this way Elvis makes an appearance in a red seqin (sp) jump suit!!
This is actually my first 15 minutes of fame, the Pinks season finale has us in it in Indy at IRP.
The show is negotiating with Speed for season 2 shortly and if they get the second season they have already asked to have the LS1 RX7 go against the boys from Chicago that we raced in the season finale along with my buddy in his Foxbody (that episode is going to tape at MIR in our own backyard!!).

No it will be for money. Probably around a grand.
Bobby you taking your car to the track tomorrow? Even if you dont run it you should bring it up so I can check it out
But you really should run it
