    Recirculating/plumb back valve: which is bestest?

    A recirc shouldn't have any more flutter than an atmospheric setup. You should be fine.

    Ongoing issues with starting

    Did you ever check the ground wires under intake runner 5, like I asked? PS- make sure that you wiring harness doesn't touch the EGR valve- it'll cause a short.

    dyno day ct-26!!!

    Yeah, if you have a known leak, fix it and you should really feel the difference, if that IS the problem. I made exactly 260rwhp on a completely stock motor, with hardpipe kit, FMIC and exhaust, 7psi.

    Trans Wing Brackets

    The wing brackets are different for a R154 tranny and W58 tranny, for the driver's side. If you need the W58 driver's side, LMK- I'll trade you for yours.

    My Krzy Mk3 (56k Beware)

    LMAO! The fact that you're holding a turbo and laughing at the Vettes isn't the funny part- What's funny is, that you DROVE to the Vette dealership, WITH your turbo, so that you could take a picture, laughing at Vettes! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

    WRX STI w/mods gets "crispawned"...

    Cool story, and well written- but, if I understand correctly... you got home, then left the house, and started looking for this guy?

    My new 7M buildup...long road.

    Thanx- I've put the bodywork on hold for the most part... I just want to get this motor done and installed, then I can focus on making it look less ugly. That'll include 18" wheels, a factory color repaint w/ painted mouldings, and new trim for the front and rear glass.

    My new 7M buildup...long road.

    Slow progress... It seems like nobody wants to talk to me on my work days, but as soon as my day to work on my car rolls around... BAM! Everybody wants something! Anyway, I did some final porting to my head today, just a bit to clean up the area around the valve guides on the intake side...

    Weird start issue

    Werd- Take the starter out, clean the solenoid contacts with some emory cloth/sandpaper, do the same to the plunger, clean out any particles, and lube the plunger shaft. OR, you can completely replace the contacts for about $14.

    opinion's please (engine swap)

    If it's a Miata, I'd put a rotary in there. I think it would sound great, and you'd make more power than you could use.

    Advice needed: rounding up a few more horses?

    Keep it simple and cheap; Retorque your HG Shim the wastegate with 2 -3 washers get a real downpipe and exaust if you can afford it get a free-flow intake This alone will give you 30-50HP, I imagine.

    MAF

    No, I believe you can use a LEX housing, and the supra electronics, but not the other way around. Just buy a MAFT, dude. http://www.fullthrottlespeed.com/itemdesc~CartId~%7BC2AABB85-DDEA-43D8-BB69-2BDC92C18EVEREST7B1%7D~ic~050SUPRA3MAFT~eq~~Tp~.htm

    Supra Oil, Boost, and Fuel Fiasco!!!!!!!!!!

    Does the 60-1 use the same oil feed/ returns as the CT? I'm thinking one end of that feed/return system is what's oiling you up like that. I've had a bad return gasket, and it can pump out quite a bit of oil.
