Ask Shane where your IDCs end up at when you're done. Did you up base fuel pressure?

So one coupler was leaking slightly (the whole time it looks like) and then when we hit 410 two popped off and one was the LICP one off the IC. So the bumper needed to come off but we didn't have time.

SO basically, back to square one, well not that far but I am going to pull the bumper tomorrow and leave it at home and tighten everything. Then we will tune bumperless to avoid this again.

Took us a bit with the boost leak test...everything was going so smooth. I am thinking 420whp should be possible on this turbo but we will have to see. Spool was about 700 later at 25psi.

I will post up a few graphs later.

Get a wrench on those t-bolts and be manly about it! If you feel the pipes are too slippery rough them up a bit with sandpaper, but I've never had to do that before.

30psi and 450hp possible?

I want to see how broad the power band is on a X compared to a IX.

This thread delivers!

this this!

Sorry about that man, but the numbers sound promising! Sounds like you are really close to complete, prepare for awesomeness on the road!

I am thinking when I get my clutch in and we crank it up to 32ish psi that 430-440 is what we will see.

I could be wrong though, might make more. If i do some valve springs/retainers and we rev it out to 8000 we could get there i bet.
