It was fun, though getting kicked out at 11 kind of sucked. Can't wait for it to get warmer.
Car played tricks on the way home. Did a couple of runs and the boost was good. Closer to home I was back up to 22.5 psi. Thanks for the words of advice Fobio and Celest, I'll jack up the car tomorrow and take a crack at finding the leak..........hopefully it'll be an easy fix.
Yeh 11pm was lame time to shut up shop
Nice to listen to the pros sharing insights. Good to finally meet you guys. :)
Up until tonight, I thought my car was slow. I have been screwing with ATR and have since agained about 40whp.
The thing is I still feel my car is slow, except tonight I realized its not slow, I just have some kind of mental problem.
I bet the 335 thought my car was slow too, LOL.
nice seeing everyone! my cruise home was funny after i passed 2 reg mz3's and they tried to race me...pshhh
Chris, I heard your car backfire at least twice, just before you turned on Vic Park. :)
The 335 was cruising with a GTR, and a 350z.
They were all spoiled asian guys.
I don't even bother with 350z or G35's anymore. Just a waste of fuel.
Good hang out tonight. Agreed 11 is early to close up shop.
y u no txt horto?
f*(kers.
Here is what an external wastegate with a screamer pipe. You will hear the gate open at 30s in the video

that's deafening! my ears hurt from listening to that lol
I wasn't kidding when I said you could probably hear the car at the Tim's if I passed on the highway.
That's the plan, that's why they call it a screamer pipe.
The whistle sound is when the valve is open halfway, but since my valve is literally 3x the size of the stock one, I doubt it will have to open fully.
****..so much for sneaking home quietly.
that sounds incredible. holy ****.
are those bubb rubb approved?

WOO WOOOOOOO
So took the front end of the car apart and made sure everything was tight. Put it back together and went for a drive stopping periodically to check everything.
5th gear it's boosting to 22.5
3rd gear flat 19.5
3rd gear 3/4 throttle to 3700 rpm, then full through the rest of third and fouth its fine
Bah!
Put some blue loctite on the bolts as well (thanks CJ) didn't do the hairspray yet.
