    I might sell my soul for Prosport Peak and Hold gauges

    well, you could always swap the LED's in the prosport gauges to match your own... probably won't be bright enough though... BTW, if you're worried about your oil pressure, turn your damn A/C on and have the idle bumped up to 1k and it will show pressure...

    Tryin to figure out why my car has been running so rich.

    knock sensor and/or BOOST LEAKS known a few people that have had boost leaks with cooleze piping, nothing wrong with the piping itself, it's just fitting it all in and making sure everything is tight. FYI, going pig rich from any condition will foul out an O2 sensor...causing you to *guess...

    Free play on the crank pulley?

    put it in third, yank the e-brake as hard as you can, and have someone literally stand ont he brakes and then torque... make sure everything is out of the way and go from fender to fender as you'll take up the slack in the drivetrain and then you start actually torquing it down... never...

    down pipe/any suggestions?

    nope, the difference IIRC is the part that actually goes into the back housing of the turbo and sections off the wastegate BOSS should be just fine with a DDP, only thing I can see is if the wastegate is too small and you get boost creep and spikes (like DSM's) going true T04 with an...

    I might sell my soul for Prosport Peak and Hold gauges

    not bad at all, look at his gauge cluster... 5psi is normal if you're running thin oil, it's getting hot out, so I switch to much thicker oil and it's 10psi for ever 1k RPM now...

    20psi on pump gas, if you dont know, dont answer...

    from my understanding the bar and plate is best in smaller spaces where you can't fit a large intercooler, and a tube and fin is betterin in a larger application. bar and plate tends to take longer to heat soak because it's heavy and dense, but they don't flow as much air over them. it's a...

    dunno much about aerodynamics though a pipe, but on race cars they try and get a "bubble" of air around the car since air on air is lower drag than on the actual surface of the car. This may be having some effect in that the airflow travels along the center of the piping and on the walls you...
