Did the bolt damage your trans or was it just causing noise?

Did you ever get another dyno past 7psi of boost? If so, then I missed it.

Lol I hear that! And I'm not sure what let go in the trans and why. All I know is a brand new trans should go more than 50miles. And no on the dyno was working on the boost controller when this happened. So as soon as I get it up and running again I'll get back on the fun stuff. :bonk::bonk:

Thanks. I have blue exhaust smoke shortly after start up that goes away after warm up. Precision Turbo recommends better crankcase venting. It's worth a try, I guess...

Sorry about your transmission. Interesting to see what they find.

Do you have a oil regulator for the oil going to your turbos? Cause that helped mine a ton.

I don't have a regulator but measured the amount of oil that drains in the return lines to the pan and it came to about half of what was considered excessive. I think it was 4.5-5 ounces in 30 seconds per drain line and the manufacturer stated the max was 10-12.

I saw the oil regulator in one of your photos ( it had what looks to be oil lines to it) and I may try it. Who makes it?

I started by finding out how much psi these turbos needed witch was 40. The guys at turbo smart had the right one. If you go that route make sure you don't do what I did. It didn't come with instructions and I thought it was
Like a fuel regulator. I found out the hard way it's not. Hope this helps,it definitely helped with my set up.

Injector harness

Here's a pic of the new injector harnesses. Way better than the factory one! Trans is back in so soon will hit the track and get some numbers.

It also unplugs so you can take the manifold off without removing all the injector wires.

Killer! Nice work!

Here's the beef!

Ok well had a great night,so on 7lbs springs only no boost controller yet. A very inconsistent rookie trans break operator and with very poor weight transfer. Basically what I'm getting at is there's a LOT more in this car with out more boost. And let me tell you 3rd gear is where it's at wow! After the 9.91 run I had to slow down and work on my 1/8 mile cause I only have enough cage for 9.99.

RealQuick 06-07-2018 07:37 PM

Wow! Nicely done!!!!

acammer 06-08-2018 07:20 AM

Dang - that's hustling man. Imagine what that'll do once you have the launch dialed and you add some boost control to really back-half like a beast! Nice.

Thanks and yes definitely need work on launching and I know I could have put more to it in 3rd for sure. And probably a gear change coming soon.
