Not even...I couldn't hook at all on the stock turbo @ 18-22psi until 3rd....It's the torque that doesn't allow traction and the CT puts alot of it out at low rpm

Man, this is ridiculous. For the record, living in a big city with bad traffic all day and all night, an upgraded ct is FAR more fun on the street than say, a gt42.(Tampa doesn't fit into this category by the way, which is maybe why you don't understand it) Not everybody wants to rip open...

I actually went in there....nobody was saying anything, go figure

Tell me about it. I've said it many a time before and will again...Shit like this is what makes me distance myself from the supra community in general spare certain people PS bryan has the lumber come any further since i saw it? :biglaugh: And given that it's 9/11/06...::salute::

I understand what you're saying there but what I still don't understand, is: why speak a different language specifically when you're with people from the same culture? I mean, what's so different in that instance than if you were speaking with some random person you didn't know? Just my opinion...

Yes, but using that analogy, no country spoke their original language practically...Ever since the US was founded, it was founded as an English speaking country. Just like Canada except we've also got French as an official language because of Quebec. I still don't understand the need to use...

I really just don't see the need to speak other languages in an English speaking country if English is in fact, the official language. I mean...what's the point? No I don't "listen in" on peoples' conversations but at the same time, when there's conversations going on quite audibly in other...

I'm not from the northwest obviously(although I was in victoria last summer, south of the washington border)....But here's my take on it. Yea, everybody has the right to speak their own language. You obviously know how to speak English...but why would you be speaking another language in the...

Ah just yank the downpipe off and check it from there...But if there's drips of oil in there anyways...sounds like turbo seals to me, pretty much a given

Well, I can't see your PCV being hooked up wrong...Hell, try just running open PCV and if it still does it...problem eliminated If the turbo's good and the valve stem seals are new, compression is good...Like I said, I think oil rings - Drive/turn on the car for a bit, turn it off...see if...

Hey man, has it smoked since you got the rebuild done? I'm thinking it could be the oil rings(not piston rings)... My motor is toast too. If anything, it looks like a couple snapped rings for me - Maybe what, 2000 miles on it? haha I'll be down that way checking out some windsor real...

use gte electronics with it and minimal tuning is needed....but in his case, he has an emanage already, so he's fine for that JBL ran 18psi on pump...and the only thing for tuning he had was a regulator. no safc, emanage...nothing. that was around 430whp

That's because nobody knows how to set anything up. The GE is identical to the GTE aside from the oil squirters and slightly higher comp. As for what I did - took alot off the head an block If it's tuned properly he'll have no problem doing the boost levels I said. PS the comp ratio I had was...

Phil will have them for 500 bucks, not 50. Good looking car though

450whp is minimal in cost because you can still do it on an upgraded ct26...once you go with non-bolt on t4 turbos, the game changes

Just to comment on how much boost is safe...Get a wideband, something like an safc or emanage and tune it - Should have no problem doing 16psi+ anyways on 93/94 pump gas. My comp ratio was a bit over 9:1 on the gte, no problems

Old people....:-p

Depends what "cheap" is...You can run an SAFC instead of an SAFC2 and be fine...or an old profec instead of an e01....or an upgraded ct instead of a t4 turbo but generally speaking, to get it reliable in the long run, you have to do it properly No reason someone who's 18 even, can't make a...

Most kids that want 500+ don't even know how to go about it...The ones actually doing it have reasons

Simply put...Our stock rods are good for more power than most 7M owners will ever be putting out anyways. They're very similar to a 2J rod. I don't even know how rod knock came up in this thread...But it has nothing to do with age or power, rather poor maintenance. I would def. say go with...
