    Comments on: Dealing with the "oldschool" guys

    I try to help as much as I can and If I don't know an answer will spend a bit of time researching so I can give an accurate answer and not a guess. It's rare I give up on someone and even in his last days here I tried to help Siman even taking our "history" into account. Now and again we get...

    am i stretching my goals?

    Look at your compressor map and figure out how much it will flow at the pressure ratio's you want to run and use this as a guide, the motor is just a pump so xx in = xx out. (rough guide is 500hp is around 50 lbs/min)

    Oil Pump Failure Warning Signs?

    The stock gauge while slow and not terribly accurate is good for showing "trends" By this I mean you get used to where it sits under certain conditions and will notice if there's a change ie: Cold start Hot idle and so on. Has there been a change that makes you suspect the pump?

    -Rich's rebuild

    Rich: LOL 1/8" is like a house brick and will be 100% fine! .040" would do it and as you mentioned if the crank moves that much you're about to get a flat rear tire as you drive over it ;)

    Chunks: Doh sorry thought you were running a tubular! Ryan: We have the Brake and Clutch Masters on that side and I needed a little room for the actuator. Blackout: Would be easy enough to do T4>T4!

    I need to pick between Maftpro and standalone

    I wouldn't trust an ECU to "self adjust" even if it could Boss! A dirty fouled 02 = potential kaBOOOM! What Figgie means is the Wolf comes with a small hand controller so you can make adjustments on the go without the need to have a Laptop in the car but it's limited in what it can do and...

    Oil Pump Failure Warning Signs?

    Our pumps rarely fail. I've read a LOT of reports on old pumps being pulled down and being within spec but I figure for what a new pumps costs it's cheap insurance to buy a new one and check it's clearances before installation.

    GT turbos....

    Ken: Not to be a cocknose or anything but if 2K for the turbo is disturbing the supporting components needed will give you heart palpitations..... You can't just bolt this on and expect it to work ;)

    MA70 Supra driver vs. MA70 Supra driver

    Owned mine 7>8 years before I met another owner here on SM that lives 5 mins away! Most times if you see one out they'll nod/smile/wave as they're rare here. Mk4 owners are another matter though, most think their shit doesn't stink and that they're driving the ultimate power machine that...
