are there any shavings in the oil or filter? i think you know your answer though, that man with the hammer is have fun on the crank and rod!

Parts are on there way in and pics to follow by the weekend (assuming they come in on time). $43.30 = 2nd gen rx-7 oil cooler (built in thermo, and MASSIVE) LOST 5-8 PSI through the rpm band. Psi still within specs though. $4.21x 15ft aeroquip socketless hose (hell of a work out) $12.84 =...

^ i want so pics if you kept the ct26 and had the flapper welded shut, who modded it? what manifold?

hook it into the boost line from the waste gate actuator and the compressor housing

Aeromotive has a kit to rebuild them, if yours is aeromotive :) A leak down test will help decide whats leaking oil.

why is this? heat or oil supply issue?

Is there any thing to upgrade in the brake booster? any estimate on a package price?

Higher load= more boost, Im betting if you watch you boost gauge closely, you'll see it inch up a 1lb or 2 right as it hits fuel cut.

Turbo to manifold flange? Imho your one step ahead of the curve man, you already know where the leak is :D. Heat yes, pulsing hot air that can be felt a few inches away no, block the rad fan or disable it helps. Get it welded up and see what that changes.

nothing that i know of, gasket maker melted off on warm up ;) (orange exhuast stuff) get your hand down there cold and feal for the warm air. Mine started out as a full inch crack but only had one tiny hole that you could see (carbon build up) and feel as leaking, after a few heat cycles and...

damn, ill take ten! and a few turbos too!

forced torque what problems?

Why did they stop the pull at 6000 rpms? Any cause to the boost drop? good numbers though!

when i cracked my dp at the turbo flange, the car compensated for the "lean" reading the oem o2 was getting. Wideband showed the compensation to an extent until is slowly worked its way to max lean, and the car still ran great in closed loop.

set the engine at tdc per crank pulley and leak test, that way the valves are closed so no air leak. I cant see that causing this though. is the cps possibly set 180 deg. out?

what is your budget?

IJ sell me your oil setup since the 7m is out ;) which one? a canton or permacool? i hate that damn coolant line that likes to hug the loower charge pipe too :D

The smallest of exhaust leak (upstream) will cause a bad reading. You have a fuel pressure regulator?

crap this is gona make it fun doing this without pulling the turbo....

dig through his pics, he has a preoiler. :bowdown: (technical term escapes me right now)
