im up to 120 miles so far on the break in...i could not hold back, i was hitting 9 PSI all evening with no ill effects,its running strong and sounding great. still no leaks or unusual noises.

clutch feels great also, im real happy with the outcome to this point. all the resedue has now burnt off the pipes so all the strange smells are gone now.headed to VMP on wednesday for the dyno.

 

That's going to be great. You should record the pulls.

 

i'm assuming it's fully broken in now. How is she running?

Have you considered getting Shorty headers? I'm sure they would flow much better than the stockers. Could possibly spool the turbo faster?

Any Dyno graphs for us?

 

What a great monster you got there...well done.

 

actually our stockers are headers in a sense,they flow very well and no real gains from going to a true header.for a turbo app i would actually loose some spool by going to a header. the stock is cast and retains most of the heat,which makes the exhaust gas's expand more,which helps to spool the turbo.headers would allow the exhaust gas's to shrink when they cool down,releasing pressure,increasing spool time.

no dyno,im still playing with boost levels and the tuner i was going to use did not work out. i have 2000 miles on the motor ,car runs good so im just enjoying it for now,keeping the boost around 11psi.im planning to go t the dyno with in the next month.
