    piston rings and bearing Q

    That piston isn't 50 over. It says 0.50, indicating .5 millimeter. Unless it is a 1/2 inch over piston for the 7M. I don't think he recongiized that. ;)

    Oiling upgrades?

    Kind of like Pontiac Firebirds with Chevy and Olds 400's because GM ran out after that movie...

    VSV Hose?

    The purpose of the smaller was just showing where the grounds go. I don't know how much help it will be.

    How does a BB turbo work?

    Ain't that the truth. Beause it doesn't seem like a steel ball has lower friction than oil. But they sure do respond faster.

    VSV Hose?

    I thought so too, but then why did he bring up a VSV?

    FFIM Molds?

    Let us know when you come up with a "composite" manifold.

    piston rings and bearing Q

    .5 is 1/2 mm over. That is about 20 thousandths. That would be a standard overbore. Last time I checked JE sold rings seperate from pistons. I can't believe you can't find any. Maybe you just meant you can't find them at .050".

    VSV Hose?

    I am wondering if you didnt' read BVSV and thought that was bypass. That acronym is bimetallic vacuum switch valve.

    Failed Emissions Testing 3 times??

    You made the right choices. Autozone and Advance here both charge the same price on the NGK and Nippondenso plugs as the dealer.

    VSV Hose?

    The bypass valve is a recirculation valve for the turbo. Maybe you will link to the page with that. I have more stock pictures if you need them.

    I don't see how putting their car in front of an old Ford or dumpster is worse than those in front of graffiti.

    My supra was hit today.. yup. (PICS)

    Are you going to blast him with your M4? Nice car other wise. Looks good. My car was rear ended for about $3800. The insurance company also "totaled it", and wrote me a check for $5800.

    Pictures or ban. And not a crummy cell phone snap either. We don't care about the garage floor.

    ted 268 cams, comp cam springs?

    After reading the various valve spring threads on various forums, I would do the BBC inner. Seems too easy. If you plan on spinning this engine high, yes, you should upgrade everything in the valve train.

    Turbo pipe...

    The bypass valve needs a signal to recirculate back to the blower.

    Turbo pipe...

    The only one that runs to the bypass valve is the bypass valve recirculation pipe.
