Anyone here have experience with Turbosmart BOV's? I am looking at the Race Port model as well.
My car originally had the black bushings from Johnny, I swapped to the blue ones a few years ago thinking it would help with cabin vibrations. I replaced all of the motor mounts a few years back and...
Compete in an autocross even a couple of weeks back, somehow during my run the top polyurethane busing on the bobble strut popped off. A corner worked handed me the part and I know exactly where it...
I expect to be making over 500 wheel with the swap to the HE351 and going to LWP stage 1 cams next summer. My 120lb/ hr injectors and most likely my clutch are my limiting factors now.Not sure what a...
I am looking at the Synapse and the Tial Q. My buddy has the Tial Q on his Spirit R/T and it held over 50PSI before it blew the tester off of the coupler. I will also take a look at Agency, right now...
Pulled apart the Apexi Twin Chamber BOV today, found out there are no seals, the metal puck just rests on a machined surface, there is no real sealing surface. Secondly the BOV only has machined...
Did a boost leak test on the car last night and when I put over 30PSI into the system, the BOV starts to immediately leak. I can not get the car to hold over 30 PSI. There is no logical reason for...
Had a great weekend at Powercruise at Brainerd International Raceway. Started the event out on Friday with some good sessions. Can was running great, car was set at 33 pounds of boost, raced plenty...
My innovate gauge is a lambda sensor. It is going to make its calculations using lambda and then it converts that data to whatever scale is requested. So lambda is 1.00 no matter what fuel is used. I...
Installed an EGT Probe and temporarily mounted the gauge in my car last night. Getting ready for a weekend of fun and spirited driving at Powercruise!...
Upgraded the coolant overflow tank from 400 mL to 800mL, old tank was not large enough.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180729/d6094736cc7f2f0456c7e6ce923bf3ad.jpg

Forgot to mention this as it has taken me 6 years to get working, but I have ice cold AC now, vents are blowing at 40 degrees. I have replaced the condenser, drier, and TXV valve with new parts,...
Got my catch can hooked up to my intake. I ran a 1" hose from the top of the catch can to a 1" elbow that I installed in the K and N filter....
Went to the junkyard and found a fuel pump wiring connector. I don't know what this part is from but it had 4 14AWG wires, I used 2 wires for the positive and 2 for the negative....
The amperage draw of the 450 is close to double of the stock unit. The original Walbro 190 is about 9.5 amps, the 255 that was in there for many years was only 11.5 amps. The 450 is drawing about 17...
Working through some issues at the moment. Stock fuel pump bulkhead wiring into the module can not handle the added amperage that the Walbro 450 demands at high boost. Wires and connector got fried...
Car is back on the road, working through some boost control issues right now. Made a couple of pulls the other night in 3rd, 30PSI with 23.5 degrees of timing advance and no knock, E85 is wonderful....
Car is running and almost driving again, I have a few bugs to work out still.
Finished a few things this past weekend. Fuel system has been upgraded, the original 5/16 feed is now the return, had to add a high pressure compression fitting to the line right after the filter,...
Getting a few things done every night, Turbo is rebuilt, transmission is reassembled after a few hiccups, differential is shimmed correctly. Walbro 450 installed into a new fuel pump housing is...
Rebuilt the unobtainium NS1 crank sensor for the third time, hoping this epoxy holds up better.

Yeah, the car has Pro-Gram 4 Bolt Mains and BC Racing H Beams, it is built to handle a lot of power.

Tore down my Holset HE341 last night, shaft looks like it got warm a few times, lesson...
Replaced the oil pan gasket that was leaking right by the rear main seal bracket, made the rear main seal look like that was the leaking point. Hopefully it stops leaking on my coated garage floor...

Replaced my crispy 02 wires tonight, I can’t imagine that the ecu was getting good data from this mess. New wires, replaced the plug and wrapped everything in a heat shield sleeve. Hoping this never...
