Too much reading. Pretty sure Scheides was hitting on my mom tonight.

Boostin Performance did a good review of PTE and FP turbos.

I didn't say or infer that BW wasn't good, they are one of the most durable turbo's out there.

Few shots of taking shit apart this weekend:

I tried to get some better shots of the intake valves but it was tough to get the proper lighting.

My mechanic buddy said they look fine, great for a high performance motor. Minimal oil on the intake manifold too, so I think the motor is looking good, I hope :)

Now to get the TB and mani to MAP this week for porting.

Mil.Spec, MAP, or Boomba ported TB?

MAP is porting the TB, I prefer local stuff if I can and I figured they were doing the INtake mani already so mind as well port match it all.

Cool, I was mainly just wondering if you're getting MAP's new one.

I was going to do Mil Spec, then Bill at MAP let me know they were finishing up their Evo X TB's and I figured why not. I just like the idea of a local company doing it just in case I have issues.

My favorite part of the weekend, got to spend $350 at Sears in Tools! Got some good stuff, my favorite pickup, craftsman electric 3/8" impact driver, seriously made the job so much easier.

It's awesome how you got those pistons out through the intake ports on the head! Nice work! Money well spent @ sears :D

Super Gosh porting on the head made is possible to squeeze the pistons out :)

yea, I officially need a toolbox now, probably another trip back to sears. It's starting to suck trying to be organized with my small bench.

The pistons are from my 1st built motor, sold those last week, so need to ship them out.

Fuck it. Get a 6765 and a direct port N2O kit and run a 100 shot as a spoolup.
