According to the TSRM, white smoke can be an indication of turbo seals going south, and it would seem likely to show up under heavy load/acceleration. It's easy enough to check for excessive shaft play...

IJ? It's starting to sound like you're a mafia goon by night / Supra-god by day!!!! You break kneecaps to fund your rebuild? :naughty:

Just ran codes, and got the all's clear. That is, if a continually repeating quick blink means I'm code free, which is what I understood from the SOGI website. I just don't get it. Must be restriction due to the 3" to 2.5" muffler, but in all honesty, I remember a very similar boost level...

No worries Phoenix. I posted a pretty frantic post when I found a lot of oily buildup in my intake not long after I bought my car. So far so good, and my car keeps getting better as I continue tackling a shrinking list of issues. It can make a person panicky when you rely on your car, are...

Prayers are on the way for some relief, and of course to beat the cancer asap! Keep hanging in there Josh.

If cost effectiveness is your main priority, wouldn't it be best to see if anybody has a running long block with a post in "wanted to buy", swap the engine and sell the car for whatever you can get for it and then turn around and sell a rebuildable long block to somebody who has the time and...

I really regret jumping to a quick fix on the decible thing. Normally I take my time to make sure I do things right, but I didn't this time. Shame on me, but I will make it right. BTW, it's 2.5" for whatever little help that does. Forgive me Jon! :cry:

Joel - I will check codes tonight and see what shows up. As for the muffler, I allowed myself to be talked into a 2.5" muffler by the dingdong who sold it to me. He was convinced he couldn't hang it under the car right with 3" pipes. Since then I've come to my senses and I'm a little...

I just finished my KS rewire thanks to Shaeff's rewire kit and expected to see my boost come up beyond about 7psi max but didn't see much of any improvement. Here are my mods: 1. Apexi intake 2. Custom 3" elbow 3. Custom 3" downpipe 4. Magnaflow 3" Hi Flow Cat 5. 2.5" Flowmaster...

Usually the Boneyard on XM - Mostly 80's hairband stuff. I still like it 18 years later.

Thanks IJ! And one to you for sharing my opinion. :naughty: As for not liking the hair band thing? It was a big part of what made the 80's the 80's. Some of the hair bands made some great music in spite of looking like a bunch of fairies, and it was really funny to see some of the people...

Ouch, my first -1! Sorry, I know a lot of people like rap, but I just can't stand it. Never could, but to each their own - it really doesn't bother me that anybody else likes it as long as they don't feel like they need to share it with me. ;)

True, it was getting started but it was VERY easy to ignore until maybe the very end of the decade. The only rap that I ever seemed to have to listen to was the Beastie Boys, and that was bad enough. Maybe I was just lucky enough to be spared more living in a small town. BTW, no such thing...

You could make a head gasket out of a piece of cheesecloth, but not tackle this? - kidding, kidding... :icon_razz If nothing else, some 2 conductor wire and some electrical tape would be a quick and effective jury-rig on somethink like this, especially if you can't find a connector.

Dokken!!!!!! Nothing like the 80's! No RAP!!!! Wish we could go back to that... :nono:

Well I've heard it all - pigeon racing. So, how do the riders stay on? That's got to be one hell of a ride! :icon_razz It's good to hear this is coming together. Any idea on expected attendance? Dave - PM sent for the dyno.

:flamed: ...as you requested. :-p I scored a healthy 34, but I agree that a few questions needed another option.

Here's the version I always heard: There once was a man from Nantucket, Who's dick was so big he could suck it, He said with a grin, As he wiped off his chin, If my ear was a c(^+ I would f#$@$#ck it. I wonder how many versions there are...

Chicken parmesean tonight. And a beer. Or three.
