Somehow I knew I would be the first to blow it.....I think it is because I am so damn overprotective of it. Oh well that shit ends right now, as soon as it is back I will ride out the 500 miles retourque the head and the boost is going to 17 pounds.

Hey guys, I found out something interesting about my turbo. The guy that I got it from had replaced the turbo 2 weeks before i got the car. Its a T4 turbo but I dont have the specs on it though. Im going to pull it off and take it to somebody to check it out. Got the ARP's for the head, and im going to start pulling it off on sunday. Going to do a MHG, so i'll have the deck the block.
DEWDS!!! and ladies(oscar :evil2: ) j/p. But anyways i just got done regapping my plugs and redoing the valve cover gaskets (thx oscar), and went ona test drive with my friend joe (black celica) after testing on 10psi thank god no more busting up!! We are on the way back up san jose tword the highway and we run into 3 bikes ,they were a gsxr 1000 , 99-01 ninja 750 and a dark blue cbr 600 f4i , so after screwing around a bit on the way to the h/w they motion for me to get on the highway and after doing all kinds of circus stunts like 1 wheel to standing on the road at 70mph we all line up to go at it so i take off (55mph because they slowed way down to do their tricks) i left the ninja and the cbr by around 3-5 cars by the time i let out at 125 but the 1000 caught back up and steadily not fast but steadily passed me at 110. Then we exit old st.aug road and the guy in the 1000 comes up nest to me at the light and goes "dude that thing is not to bad at all it took me till 110 to catch you and u got my 2 buddies" then i told him i was only running 10psi and was hopeing for about 18 after fuel , then he just looks at me for a sec and shakes his head and is like "damn thats crazy only 10psi" and gives me a thumbs up and takes off after his buddies. So all and all i was like DAMN! i just killed 2 bikes so my car is running freaking tits! :aigo: :boobies: My car has been running great lately im actually kinda scared that it means its about to poop but i hope not! Val sorry to hear about your possible BHG give me a call if u need a hand or a 3rd opinion on it
Sweet, Brad!! Val, well .... :dunno:
Update on the 60-1 BB CT26..

The shaft assembly is at the balance shop now - I'll know more when it comes back. If its horribly out of balance then we know something hit the fins of either the turbine or compressor.
Also, you'll need the following parts:
-Front piston ring seal: $4.72
-Rear piston ring seal: $6.67
-Brass bearing: $21.35
-Balance job: $45
-Compressor housing seal: $6.32
-Labor: $50 (I really don't have to sand blast or fight any thing)
*TOTAL* $134.06 (+ shipping back to you... don't know if you wanted to put it on your DHL account)
Let me know if this sounds right to you.
Thanks!

Hey guys, I found out that the turbo I got on my ride is an ct26 upgraded to a t3/t4 hybrid. That thing new costs around $650. I got the car for $300 ! SWEET !
Val's not 100% sure he has a BHG but if you let him borrow that Turbo then we can make sure it's blown!!! :evil2:
That's nice Scotty!

Hey. I'm in Lake City, about an hour west near I-10/I-75.
I have a white 87 turbo targa that's having running rich problems or something right now. Not quite sure. I'm hoping I run into someone who can tune decent soon.
Matt
My location says Tampa, I need to update my usercp.

Glad you chimed in.. What are your mods? Let us know if you are headed this way and we will try to get a meet.. The Jville guys stay in touch pretty often!!
Not far from stock, my 87t. Mods are:
Blitz Nur-Spec cat-back, 3" DP, 3" Test Pipe, K&N Fpik cone (rest of intake is stock), 2.0mm Metal HG, ARP Headbolts, CT-26 upgraded w/ Garrett guts 60-1P trim. Fuel system is stock so I'm not taking full advantage of this turbo.
List your mods when you can.
Later,
Matt
