New turbo on the way bought it last night so hopefully we can have a vid of this car running by next week. I'm starting off conservative only running 15 pounds

Tuning went slowly yesterday since we had to redo the whole tune. The base tune was setup for a NA 350 Chevy? So we simply got it to cold start correctly and idle nicely. Plus it was snowing/sleeting yesterday so I didn't know how I felt about going into boost on an icy road lol

How the hell does that happen, one does not simply add 2 extra cylinders ;)

Weather in the midwest has sucked this last week but hopefully meeting up with my tuner next week but a slight update I bought condor speed shop solid motor mounts since the stock mounts are torn to pieces

[Pootis]

Well you guys wanted an update lol

Boost spiked not sure how high but I don't think the car liked 15lbs to begin with.
So got the head stripped and ready to get resurfaced

I have arps on the way a new headgasket and lowering boost to 10lbs until I build the motor. The car was a monster before this happened.

ARP 2000's and a new HG will be fine with 15lbs of boost. just be sure not to get the VR HG.

how was your tune?

[Pootis]

Tune was running a little too much timing but we didn't see any signs of detonation. I think it was a combination of too much boost for MB's and I lifted the head I also wasn't watching the temp gauge so I might have gotten too hot to begin with.

Shiny head
