60psi base fuel pressure for 440's on 20psi sounds about right me thinks.

Hahaha, ill post a video probably thi weekend, if the rain stops, it started today and supposed to for a couple days.

i have to fix my POS manifold tomorrow, so then i wont be leaking at the wastegate, then maybe ill get boost quicker like i used to be able to, hah its a leak bad enough for me to not get full boost until atleast 4500rpm, usually i get it right before 4k.

it feels like it has a t88 with the amount of turbo lag, hah. and the break up problem isnt fixed yet, idk what it is, ill check the ecu for knock code tomorrow, and check to make sure the coils have god contact to the plug after shoving a plug wire in #1 coil to do the timing. i think maybe i pushed the spring up too far or something, hopefully.

burnout vid along with hopefully a 2-3rd gear fly by coming soon to a computer near you!

50 trim top-mount t3 based turbo at 20 psi on 440's is asking for trouble even @ 60 psi base pressure come to think of it. Anybody else care to shed some light on that -
