A miss that subsides when it's warm? Sounds like BHG to me. :sarcasm:

oh......the miss is no longer.....there... A few quick boosts...an hour of driving around the streets..and it cured itself.. lol
My wife asked me why my car does not make anymore loud noises,.... lol :biglaugh: .
I told her I am a sane person now...

Ohhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!................

Hit a SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAG!!!!....
eh not really.... I think I will pull the blown turbo today and install the EBAY! one for now. The GT4082 is too damn leaky and smokey that I even choke..but dang..it boosts real good.. lol . I will then send it in for a rebuild..sometime next month.

The t70 needs to have a 3" v-band welded on as it only came with a 2.5" and my downpipe will not downsize.
ATP + Sean at FFTEC = ftw . Its so nice to have ATP move to Hayward = 5 minutes from my house.. lol
I will also review this cheap ass EBAY! turbo to see how long and how well it performs.

I still have to check what wastegate spring I have and also plumb the wastegate and hookup the BC.Today if I have time.

The real SNAG!!!!
I was going to drive the car last night, but the friggin passenger Head light won't pop up...WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It worked the night before...
I can turn it open, it goes down when I turn the light off...but it won't pop up......grrrrrrrrr...
I think the car is mad for sitting for so long... lol

Moe? WTF! What happend to the painted valve covers and coil pack cover? That's doesn't even look like the same engine as the one in your first start up vid. Did I miss something?
