I was able to get the car out today and give it an easy breakin drive, The turbo comes on much sooner than the old Rayjay, It hits around 2800 - 3000 RPM as opposed to the 3800 from the old turbo setup, it's too soon to tell if it is as powerful as the old Rayjay as I am breaking in the turbo slowly and have not raised the boost up yet. I am sure there is some pressure drop with the intercooler installed. I will log in some miles over the weekend check and recheck all systems then give you a all systems go, throttle up report on the butt dyno.

OH, OH very bad noise coming from engine. Car was running and sounding great and I have been driving it easy all day, I stopped for awhile at the neighbors when I got back in to drive it 2 blocks home it developed a bad noise and my oil pressure gauge shows low pressure, hoping a tensioner but sounds a lot like rod bearing noise, and the low oil pressure? The engine stills seems to run smooth I may be down for awhile till I figure this one out. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
