Stem to guide is in spec. I'll probably be taking apart my other head and seeing which valves I can use out of that one.

A kid I went to highschool with thought if you take the turbine out of a turbocharger it will free up exhaust gas and make more power. Yep I've met people that stupid.

Yea they're ground alittle crooked though. I just want to know if there's anything I can do to get the stem tips level again or if they need to be ground and chamfered, not looking forward to handing more money over to this machine shop again though haha.

Already had it to the shop. Everything checked out good he just said the stem tips looked like they've been played with. Just small scratches on some tips making it unlevel. Drew: I got it from someone local not a remanufacturer. I'll try to get pics later, Just don't know if my camera...

So I recently bought a remanufactured 7M head and the ends of some valves seem to be ground down crooked. It looks like someone took the tips to a grinding wheel or file and didn't get them straight. What's the best way to grind these stem tips back to flat? Or should I just swap out the valves...

No that guys a genius. He's "sticking it to tha man!" and saving 3mpg in the meantime!

His pictures are easier to laugh at than his intelligence, suprisingly.

Sorry to hear man, but how funny would it have been funny if they tried to pull a hit&run.

Haha I did the exact same. I didn't even notice what he said until I read the post after.

I've got a similar picture on my old cell phone when I first got my car. Bone stock It read around 145, at just below 5500rpm in 5th. It was taken as I was slowing down from low 150's. Fastest I've had my car because I haven't driven it in so long:cry:

Good job on the apology. But couldn't this have been taken to PM? The entire forum didn't need to see the peronsal argument, and I think a personal apology would have been better taken care of in PM as well

Like others I suggest decreasing your alcohol consumption. When you drink why not go out and find people, women, friends, to drink with? I think being more social and less time alone will greatly increase your spirit.

Just fired up my PS2 for the first time in awhile. I had a '90 TT already built so I just did a base run with old untuned settings and got a 13.57 haha. Spinning every gear. Found out I had all driving aids off... tweaked with a few things (Used mostly your settings) although my ride height...

Haha I email'd him last night and he sent me back a reply that seemed like he's been harrassed about it before. He claims to not know anything about the turbo, he just sells it, and has had no complaints from buyers.

How do you know it won't work if you haven't tried it?

MDC did you take these photos or find them online? Loki I noticed the color scheme too. The license plates kind of confuse me but I'm convincing myself it's some sort of purpose built car owned/sponsored by the wealthy dealership for competition, or simply bragging rights?

Uhh, nope. Your problem is you should be posting a link to the Youtube page, or the User's videos. The video will not play in the Forum the way you have posted them as icons. Click this link to open the page and actually view the movie...

Quite the tease. Looks good though. Can't wait to get my GT4088 running.
