    OK... Did the test again today after running the car to operating temp... Unfortunately, none of the numbers changed... So I took some advice, and put Rislone oil additive in there, and ran the motor... Did the compression test again, and all my numbers were about the same, however, #3...

    Well, YES... If you guys would help me, then hell yeah... I dont think it would be a bright idea trying to run 25 pounds of boost with a loose ring... But here's the deal: the plan was to come down on the 18th, hang at the meet on the 19th and 20th, then stay through the whole week to hang with...

    Greddy T78: should I get it? Need advice...

    What about this option: what if I just had my current turbo fitted with a 70+mm compressor wheel? Its got a 4" inlet, so there is plenty of room for a bigger wheel... Any thoughts?
