6 speed or go home. Seriously. Who bothers with high hp on any of the 5 speed boxes. 17 passes at the track last night with 500+whp on street tires and there was even wheel hop a couple times in...

Love the friendly shit talking. Makes things fun. Cant wait to see the battle.
yeah even though the speedo is mechanical driven by a cable the cluster itself has a board in it that converts the speed signal to give to the ecu. How do you think the ecu knows when to speed gov...
Why? just added weight, added money, added hassle. Its really not that loud. I can have a conversation with someone in my car cruising around town or on the highway without problems. Its only ev...
No na was loud. With the turbo on there its not that bad
Here is the deal, I couldnt afford for the car to be down 4 weeks while I wait for my turbo to be fixed. I daily drive this car. Simple as that. I tuned it enough that it would run decent n/a. ...
I couldnt get my buddy to load a 3rd and 4th gear pull vid onto youtube. Track was closed this weekend due to bad weather. I did however take the car out last night while it was just cloudy and 3...
I suspect a bad torque wrench. lol Ive never seen cam cap bolts do that. Then again ive never overtorqued them. I can do them by feel and get them between 80-100 inch lbs every time.
Turbo is back on and feels absolutely amazing. Thing just wants to go at any speed/rpm/throttle. Its incredible. Soo happy I went with this high comp 2.2 with BOOST!
Should put the cams back to 0,0 It would have made more power and peaked and held a bit higher I would bet you.

Yes, the n/a times are running my shorty small diameter runner turbo manifold open. The motor definitely needs to breathe more. Lots of things killing it performance wise naturally aspirated. Bu...

Finally rolled over 150k this last week, 1k miles on the 2.2L so far without a hitch at all other than a slight oil leak from my excessively reused lower oil pan. But nothing major. Turbo is goin...

Gonna try my hardest to make it out there. I think if the car stays in one piece from now till then it will be a definite go as long as funds permit. If things keep going like they have so far th...
I was gonna say axle nut too. hahaha. I drove from Yuma, Az to Killeen Tx and on the way my axle nut came loose and was making a horrible growling noise. Lived with it till I finished the trip to...

My next manifold. This will compliment the 2.2L 12.5:1 VET nicely. Cant wait for mine. :)
just to prevent a flat if the slick itself desides to spin on the rim. I think if you get them to seal good with some tire glue and use some wheel screws to keep the slick in place you can get awa...
