I'm here in dallas, shoot me a PM whenever you comming down.


Btw, I changed the oil in blower and new belts yesterday. It was pretty easy, and car feels lot diff with new oil. Good stuff.

If anyone willing to go with V3, put this on note. Hal zip tie my drain oil line to right around radiator, that made me way much easier to change my oil.

Sup J, congrats on the FI setup and the dyno numbers as well. Drive safe out there with the new beast! You can tell that IP takes good care of their customers by the covers they put over the leather seats.

Well..this thing is kinda hard to get used to. Specially these hot days lol. First gear is kinda weak sauce, but second/third and high way pull... very strong.
Too bad that i haven't receive my boost gauge back yet, i don't know what RPMS/Gear and what boost. Suprised my tires holding up good, i guess i can keep these for little more longer.

...I can not stop rev up....lol + gas milies isn't that bad

Good, glad your enjoying it. Once you get used to the power you will be asking for more. Welcome to boost addiction.The weather from Michigan to Dallas is a big difference. It's 45 degrees up here right now.

Congrats on the build. 373 on a DD is nothing to sneeze at. It'd be great to have that SC car on the airstrip Chef-J!

make sure you take it to the track a few times before you airstrip. you should be able to easily trap 90+ mph with that much hp in the 1/8th mile and build from there.

I'm still baby step man.
quick question for you.

Is it hard for you to build up boost? Mine is kinda hard, boost start build when it's on full throttle ( i mean, when i push all the way the pedal.) I do remember hal told me mine was kinda hard to build boost..My gauge doesn't have vacume position, it is hard to figure out build boost time.

So far i've seen 6~7 psi on second gear

Between pro cycling and other stuff my weekends between Feb and October get filled up too fast.

Sounds like a great time. Maybe when my car has more nice parts on it like yours, I might go


as for building boost, i've never driven anyone else's SC car, so i got nothing to compare to. How early it starts to be build boost can be changed slightly by adjusting the BPV. You loosen the BPV so that it takes less vacuum for the BPV to close and start to build boost. But loosen too much and you'll pop off the boost at the slightest lift in throttle. Its all that balancing act.

Just mark where it was originally and give it a few turns in either direction to see if that helps.
