No cams, thats one of my next upgrades. I was thinking 280s The tial port is not blocked.
its now not using the MBC and working at 14psi.
Wierd thing though, now that im working at 14psi i did a quick pull, it sounded great spooling up but it hits 14 psi and sounds like a super charger whine. this could be normal as i am used to the sound of not having a dump tube like on my old setup, and this could very well be the dump tube sound. It doesnt sound bad, just different.
I may just pick up a cheapo MBC to tide me over until i get some money for the Gizzmo Electric one.
Other then that i love the setup, it feels really strong.

Get a $45 Joe P., I really liked that MBC; it was definitely nicer than my $13 eBay one.

61mm turbos HATE stock cams. It should really come alive with some cams.

I love the new intercooler the dimensions are 31x11.75x4" from siliconeintakes.com after driving home boosting here and there, the hot side is warm the cool side is freakin ice cold. last night my intake temps never got over 67 degrees.

Just curious, but at idle, dos your magnus make it sound like your car has a huge vaccuum leak? I've got one on my 1g and it makes a high pitch whisteling sound, but I don't have any leaks.

yes it does, and it always throws me off. Because it idles kinda rough so i hear that whistle and think its a boost leak. It almost sounds like its coming from the throttle body. its great to know that im not the only one expirencing this. I like to think of it as the horseys wanting to come out and play.

Your intake temps are read at the MAS before the turbo, unless you are using something else to monitor them.

So tomorrow the Cams should come in (yeah one day before the street legal drags at california speedway) Also tonight i tried launching the car and the clutch slips under a hard lauch (15psi and 4-5k rpm) So im also gonna swap the clutch that was in my GST (Southbend DXD 6 puck.) So hopefully that will help with the launch, i know it helped a ton on my gst. I have a long night ahead of me.
