went to fort smith and traded some parts with bobby today. also ran on the dyno. I have a major boost leak after installing another stock turbo. I can't boost past ~5-6psi and hear a shhhhhhhhhh coming out from under the hood. I beleive its the air control valve leaking. I'm about to buy block off plates and seal everything up. any ways at about 6psi I made 202whp the first run and 195.42whp the second. and torque was 175.53. That was with redline runs to 7k The chart is off by 1000 rpm and only shows up to 6k. Before the turbo reinstall I was boosting ~10-11 psi and hope to be back there after sealling the leaks. The car just feels like its lagging right now compared to before. www.arimport.com/forum/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=781

the power isnt too bad considering the boost loss. You'll have to let us know when you get it boosting right.

You need to finish polishing that sucker, it will look sweet on your car.

If I can get some time I will work on polishing it. I thought I was going to have to find a smaller exhaust housing but did some research and stock s4 TII turbo's have a .90or.96 A/R and and this housing on the h1c is 18cm which=~.96a/r . So looks like this will be just right. I decided I'm going to make a plug-n-play harness for the megasquirt to simplify installation. Hopefully by next summer I'll have everything worked out and installed.

;Dgoing single.... My wife bought me some ebay gift certificates for Vday so I bought a Megan racing 3"MSpec II muffler. I'm just going to have it made to where it bolts up to my existing 3" exaust system like a cat back. Should have it one in the next month, should free up lots of weight compared to the 2 heavy steel Racing Beat mufflers and y pipe.

Hehe. I'm a fan of the racing beat, but that should be a heck of a weight saver.

I'll have the rest of my RB exhaust still there. the DP and midmuffler. I'm also planning to make a midmuffler replacement pipe for drift events and such, or if I want to make some racket lol
