    boost drop - 57 trim ct26

    Hi guys trying to keep this as brief and as informative as possible. The issue: Boost drop at high rpms. ~16psi down to ~11psi ...also worth mentioning it only makes 11psi max in 1st gear and 13 (also drops to 11) in 2nd. 3rd is where it will hit 16psi and then drop at around 5000+rpm...

    Factory Oil System

    Have done some searching and reading but I'm still scratching my head. Hope this is not a terribly silly question but... When does the factory oil system start to reach its limits? I have a mildy built 7M (rebuilt head, probes, eagle rods, new bearings etc) but I did not shim my new oil pump...

    57 trim CT26 - slow spool and early fuel cut

    I installed an unclipped 57 trim on my built 7M (probes, mhg, arps, recod head etc) a few months ago, and i've been putting off asking these questions but something doesn't seem right. Firstly, IIRC people have said that the 57 trim spools just as quick as a stock ct26. Is this true? For...

    Divorced Downpipe vs Bellmouth/Widemouth

    A few mates and I have discussed this numerous times. Basically what's better for the CT26. Are there any proven results that one is better than the other, and if so would the difference be noticeable? I myself don't really care, I run a recirculating ddp but just for argument sake I wanna...

    Rear Coolant Hardpipe Leak?

    Hey guys, I believe that the rear coolant pipe is leaking on my car. I replaced every coolant hose there is, back there and its still leaking which leads me to believe its the hardpipe.

    New Driftmotion Intercooler Kit

    Im looking at getting the new DM intercooler kit which has the inlet and outlets on the same side. Which seems a lot nicer than the older kit. I've looked through a bunch of threads about the driftmotion kits, and haven't really got the answer I was looking for. So to all the guys who run a...
