dude thats ridiculous! lol, i think we do have long-lost brothers! yeah the sound of my car i absolutely love, wish i had a good audio recording of it cause its sweet, and about to get better once i get the 3" downpipe welded together. runs like a champ and except for the random code 11 with...

turbo timers really arent the bees knees when it comes to helping you out....why dont you save $100 and sit in your car for 30 seconds before you shut it off? thats what I do even with a stock CT

nice lookin car man! thats about exactly what happened when i bought my first one lol, found a cheap rod-knocked NA body and did a full turbo swap. good luck man!

check your intercooler and piping to see if it is pooling there

sounds pretty good! needs more dyno pull vids lol

and i jizzed in my pants...

check to make sure the TPS is still aligned properly, it may have slipped

a friend of mine has seen it around and thinks its a joke....says it sounds like an NA lol...ill keep an eye out

this is completely normal with a six puck clutch... a clutch works off pressure, Pressure=Force/Area, so since a six puck has less area for engagement, the pressure gets larger with a the same force (your engines torque output) making you suddenly apply more pressure than you are used to i...

please dont insult engineers like that!

I got $20 at 5:1 on that mysterious "backpressure"

i dont think its a leak, im still spooling to 8psi as fast as normal, plus its stays up there where it didnt before and if i really goose it, itll move up to 10psi

i have the same thing that just started happening to me today when i installed full hard-pipes from TB to intercooler...im am running the stock BPV though, and only happens when i hit 8psi on most of the pulls i have done since noticing it... my opinion is its either the whine of death...

yeah, an exhaust can be made cheap if you have time/resources....i made a full catback with a muffler for ~$130

open downpipe can still be bad, i ran it on my car for a few weeks....just dont sit at idle too long or those fumes will get to you lol more awesome idea: STACKS!!!! run it out the hood baby!

im just gonna point something out here (correct me if im wrong OP)....you were running fuel and air mods with a lot more additional boost than normal without any form of tuning or wideband to watch what you were doing? lucky it was only one piston and not everything in your engine IMHO

heres more pics of the exhaust, gotta find a better camera before i can get video...yep, its lower than dirt cause there are only 2 hangers on the whole thing right now lol, need to fix that...

well its been a while since ive posted anything about my car....really thats good cause i havent broken anything yet :biglaugh: But i figure i might post up some pictures of the custom exhaust that me and a friend of mine made one night. Basically, its kinda ghetto lol. Starts with the...

maybe so, but if you can tune well, anti-lag fixes all of these problems :naughty:

my opinion would be methanol...after messing with E85 tuning for a couple of months, we did see plenty of performance gains out of it but it really wasnt enough to be worth the hassle of driving extra to get the gas. methanol has that advantage of only using it when you need it, like spray but...
