Do NOT buy cheap silicone hoses!!!!
Just came back from the track with a silicone hose that exploded on my 2nd run....uh yeah, exploded. Apparently the reducers I got weren't reinforced (clear looking tape wrapped around it). I thought when I got them it felt a little flimsy, but thought nothing of it. Boy what a mistake!!!! I'll post pics tonight. Pretty pissed I wasted 45 bucks to run my car pretty much only once.
What did you get your first run?
YAY! I rechecked my pocketloger and it caused me to run 30 counts of knock the ENTIRE 4th gear!!!! Checked my plugs and sure enough! 2 tips completely busted!!! Now I lost 25psi in 2 cylinders!!! F it. Who wants to go with me to the track on Wednesday? I just put on a new hose and gonna try for it again even with the lose of compression. So who's coming with! Show your dsm support!
Wednesday 5:00pm.
we talked.. im in.. :!:
Oh and they recently put up this sign at sac race way so damn... i guess this means lee isnt goin
Oh, sorry lee, didn't see your post til now. I bogged my 60' and got like a 2.5 and I didn't hit 4th gear (hit the stupid block between 1st and 4th...) So i was pretty much in neutral crossing the line for about 30 feet. Crossed the line at 13.2@107mph. Got the video, you can hear/see how shitty my first run was...made me wanna vomit after my last 2 runs.
lol.If it was somebody else driving or another car i'd say they couldn't drive,but with as much power asyour'e putting down,maybe you should do a NASA G force program before going at it again!That must be alot of power to handle down the track!
hi, I'm the idiot behind the wrench.
G force program LOL. 8000rpm does come pretty damn quick and its alot hard to stay in your powerband with this turbo then it was with an E16g. More practice...
I'll be there, what time you heading out? Are you meeting anywhere before hand or just meeting at the track?
Mmmm... boost? Si Si.
