I ordered a Turbosmart boost controller & a replacement diaphragm
for my other waste gate from Summit yesterday I was just on the 'spring ' in the gate
so no boost control just what it gave me.which wasn't enuff,,lol,

[madmike]

diaphragm was the wrong one,,, Think I'll be looking for a bad "Evolution Turbonetics waste gate to rebuild,LOL,,, I was getting 5lbs without the controller now closed it gets about 7 lbs, tuned it up and now the trans is out it kept popping out of 1st since i built itall back together,

Fun stuff, Their is awesome Fathers day cruise(200+cars) up here Saturday evening.
state & local cops block the main roads about 25 mile cruise total.
Lawn chairs,long water/garden hoses to the streets,, (burnout boxes every few hundred yards) my line lock is workin and I'm ready! Test drive,
gonna fill up the fuel tank and see how far it takes me(no gauge) 7 gal buggy tank.bringing some fuel too

 

[madmike]

Cruise route was about 40 miles.
I'm getting 14 mpg. with the play factor:drivingskid: so I'm happy

 

[madmike]

My cruising a/f could be better, so I plumb heat to the intake,in the form of hot oil,,, low&behold a/r's dropped to 12.5-13ish
I did install one 45 idle jet too,, but I'm swapping it for the 50 again today to see if it was the heated intake or what
or put another 45 in it and lean it out a bit more?

 

[madmike]
