    Abnormally high oil psi

    At first I thought I was gonna have an answer for you until you said... I had my filter relocation kit plumbed backwards and had like 80PSI at idle. Kind of threw me too. Sorted out the lines and it fixed it. Tight clearences and a cold startup? Sorry I cant be more help, but dont...

    Thats right I remember reading your accident report thread. Didnt the car that hit you from behind get totalled? You got a great deal on the replacement. Black wouldnt be my first choice down here in TX, but damn...it looks like a wonderful unmolested example. Congrats again.

    T3/T4 Hybrid Turbo?

    lol, I wouldnt have either about 6months ago. Basically, the "hot" side is what spins from the exhaust pressure. the "cold" side is the part that makes the power (well thats a simplified way to look at it). As for the numbers I was just saying that it was similiar to my turbo and I am happy...

    Headlight Washer Nozzle Fun

    Make sure when you do it to route your high pressure A/C lines through it so you can "keep the smirnoff on ice" :naughty: If you had two you could fill the second one with Vermouth and make martini's. Then when your girl says "shaken, not stirred" you can do a few hard pulls...

    best line to tell a trooper when you get pulled over...

    I think the point of the thread was to make up some funny stuff, but the best thing to say a police officer is "yes sir" and "no sir"

    Headlight Washer Nozzle Fun

    LOL, that gave me a chuckle. To get them out you are gonna have to go at them from the botton, there are clips you need to pinch just like the ones on the hood. WAY back in the day when I used to go to Palm Springs for spring break every year, we used to add extra bottles and sprayers in all...

    *Experience>Enthusiasm*

    yeah, Im old and I need a mentor, and some of these young guys here could definately teach me a thing of two. I'll be the first to admit that even with my firm understanding of the basics, I have alot to learn. Actually my focus isnt what it used to be. I think I was a better mechanic 10...

    Trouble with boost over 1bar

    .6mm is .0236 gap which is entirely too small. Where did you get that spec? I would run .28 at the min and maybe more like .3 (stock spec is .32 if Im not mistaken) and picking up others thoughts here on SM I have never heard anyone say they like Bosch Plats in a performance turbo...

    Running lean as hell ???

    yeah I wasnt questioning you FPR. It turns out my Walbro wasnt bad Im now suspecting my FPR. But in your case its hard to say why you are leaning out. Definately the post above gives you some places to start looking.
