Why does it seem a tad high? 57 trims can turn out around 400rwhp at 16 psi

You can make 1000rwhp but if you can't drive... power don't matter.

You could always setup a high/low switch if you want to do it manually and mount it on the steering wheel like those cool NOS buttons on FnF!

I have all burgundy, I'm trying desperately to find shadow grey to swap in.

IJ is that where this icon came from your personal experience with this matter? :: ij. ::

You know devin, if you change your 15% drivetrain loss to around 5% the numbers are very close.. I honestly didn't think the r154 would be a 15% loss between all the parts.

Isn't this math lacking fuel pressure? Or am I wrong?

I'm a turbo guy.. I've never done a burnout nor hard launch in my car so meh, you got more balls than me. Now I have done a 5mph punch and been scared shitless..:eek3dance:

original 74 brakes?:eek3: I've been in one of these with front/rear disc conversion and at 60 mph I thought we'd NEVER stop.

Do you mean hood latch spacers? That'll mess with the aero a bit much. Could you 'in theory' create a vacuum from the air going under the car to help evacuate some of the hot air under the hood? I realize air under a car trying to race is kind of counter-productive but still.. Or you could try...

The 87 shell is red and the PO trailed it but forgot to tighten down the targa top so you can guess what opened up like a tuna fish can..

::popcorn:: I enjoyed the threads when this car was revealed as a stock turbo putting down so much torque and Devin defended him. Now the tables have turned!:evildeal:

I was wondering what was going on.. I was like open diff but first video laid down two? What? Then heard the clutch kick and was like:naughty:

I got brought home in a 89 corolla 5 speed, brand new.. Heh

It's staying normal under normal conditions because the CHT isn't climbing much but when you put it under a load the CHT's climb causing excessive coolant pressure. Sounds like you've got the very early signs of a BHG to me. I'd do as supraguy suggests and try to retorque.. Back off the nut...

Are you sure? Different P/N's..

Want to know common places to check for heavy rust? Rear fender wells if the plastic is still on and remove the spare tire and tap on it pretty heavily with your hand, leaking hatches cause rust to form there easily.

Have you thought about trying to make custom air dams to route the air exactly where you want it? Just a thought.

My only concern with running increased boost for a longer period would be heat soak inside the engine bay. I'd suggest wrapping the turbo cold/hot side in heat wrap along with a t4 turbo blanket.

First thing I see wrong with that list is no means of tuning. Please please please for the love of whatever religion you are, focus more on the tuning stability of the engine vs performance parts. All of those upgrades would really shine with a EMS. As far as the size on the t4, it depends on...
