    slimmest deep socket

    Well there's two solutions to this: 1.) Get an impact socket. They aren't chrome dipped, and they aren't hardened. Take it to a machine shop and have them turn it down. 2.) Take the cams out. Its not that hard to do.

    shimming the wastegate?

    Lay off the crack, please. Shimming the wastegate is the cheapest form of upping the boost you can do. The draw backs are that the life of the wastegate actuator is severely cut.

    Killed an '05 Mazda 6

    Good kill. I absolutely murdered a mazda speed miata the other day. Maybe what you're talking about the same kind of car? I know the badge on this one didn't say miata, but it was 100% a miata. Guy tried running me from a 30mph roll. Needless to say by 3rd gear I have close to a third...

    diesel turbo

    Hate to tell you you're wrong Nick, but you're wrong. :nono: Most of the early years of power stroke engines used a large shaft to4 setup with a different comp housing and a monster exhaust housing. Some were reverse rotation compaired to a typical to4. The shafts were typically P trim, Q...

    diesel turbo

    It will work. Turbos are turbos. The a/r on the hotside is a little large, but it would still spool, just not sure when. If its the reverse rotation model on the powerstroke, you'll just have to point the compressor housing up and not down. Also, if its the variable vein turbo, don't touch...

    sinlge T mk4 vs me, kb cobra

    Yeah I ran home with my tail between my legs the other day when a cobra went by me. I simply game him a nice 2nd gear boost off, and he let me know by giving me a 50mph burnout. It was litterally instantaneous (sp?). No lag at all. I just gave him the thumbs up and went home.

    It was a BHG, it was a DIY! - Thx to all.

    Theres tons of supras in the Louisville area, most are mk3's. BTW, I saw Kurt's supra today in person, and it runs like a top! Congrats again Kurt.

    When I thought the home shopping people were actually somewhat smart...

    I was out this one time with these two girls and the one chick orders bacon. It was pretty raw. She goes "Um like excuse me. My bacon is still moo-ing!"

    Gas saving idea from the other forum

    This coil idea will not work and will harm your engine. You see, you must release the compression inside the cyl to actually save mileage. The new 4 -8 - 4 v8/v4 chevy engines do this - they release the compression and shut off the spark and fuel to half the cyls while under highway/light...

    When I thought the home shopping people were actually somewhat smart...

    I wonder if that was a green screen and they told the guy it was a horse or the guy really has the IQ of a pbnj sandwich while on the griddle.

    Emp's Teaser!

    Emp: You've been a good guinea pig, but the thin wall manifold just isn't what I thought she would do. Looks like I'll have to go thicker. And yes I built that manifold and yes empera was a guinea pig and yes I build it out of some serious THIN sh!t.
