Please pass the salt...

2.79! Damn! You're going to hit like 70 in 2nd! That will be a very fun powerband, and make for a more controllable car once the tune is dialed in. :D

VIDEOS RIGHT MEOW!!! :hitler::hitler::hitler:

Well I went out logging last night running 13psi, and it runs great! Did a little "preview" of whats to come tomorrow on the salt and got up to about 135-138 in the standing mile. I dunno If I will be able to do it on the salt cuz of traction...

The afr's are still very rich at low 10's when I turned the boost up, so I sent the log files over to Mike @ TRM and we'll see what he comes up with for my next revision. :D

I am super excited/nervous for tomorrow! Its gonna be a blast!

Don't be scared 6psi is nothing, turn that shit up.

LOL.. love this quote.

If Good & Tight says turn it up... DOO ET!

So i swapped in my 2.79 tonight. So far, I LOVE it. The ZF trans doesnt roll with overdrive so the 3.25 had to go... This diff, plus my large tires will give me nice long gears. :)

Looks like crap... But I dont care.


Oh, I also got this little devil in the mail today. :devillook:

[turbo325i]

haha we'll see , my goal was 450-475whp. That should suffice for my meager desires...

[Farbin Kaiber]

I see ~550hp there, easy.

[turbo325i]

Holy crap. For 6psi, Otis is right. Those are great numbers.

14 will put you in the "oh shit I shit myself" hp/tq range.

Boost leak could be pretty serious. It will overspeed your turbo(s) and potentially damage them. At the very least it will be super-heating the charge air, making your motor more prone to detonating or "going boom".

Yea, I will be pressure testing the system before I run on the salt.

Here is the curve. Need to fix boost leak to get that tq curve up sooner. :)

haha Otis your the man! I have an ebc for It that I need to install... Otherwise I gotta crawl under there and dick with the v-banded gate and pull it off and swap springs. :D
