You have nothing to apologize for. You have a valid opinion. Don't be anyone's *****... especially on the internet.

Good race!

Sorry to burst your bubble but this was done on a SSAC T2 bottom mount manifold with internal wastegate

$120 manifold with great results, so far..........

What are the specs on your GT30? Have you dyno'ed it? Please link me if youve already posted. I have been in the KA-T forum in a while...

Looks great though...

More vids coming soon...

I'm having trouble with my wastegate/boost controller. I never noticed it, but when I boost 17psi, after 6k rpms it starts dropping down to 14psi. Even after messing with my gain, it still drops... still trying to figure out why its dropping or what to do to prevent it...

what wastegate? external? was reading somthing today on the vac routing, seemed odd, but IIRC the top port is for a boost controller, but the bottom is for straight spring pressure.

figure it out whoop up on dem essss arghs

could 17psi be too much for the wastegate or possibly being forced open via back pressure? maybe the diaphram is failing(external), shooting ideas man
