When they're making boost (well more than 1 and less than 5 even) it sounds like a fucking hurricane. You seriously can't hear the engine anymore. The car is gonna rock.

Almost dialing in A/F under load, then its timing time :).

Well the car was running pretty good.
We've come up with a few issues.
1) It appears I have a bit of spark blow-out above 6500rpm, I guess that .037" gap with the 1 stage colder plugs was a bit greddy.
2) The wastegates appear to be cracking open and finally sealing around 6000rpm as the boost isn't very rock solid, it just slowly creaps up.

I'll have to do a boost leak test later this week, regap the plugs and turn it up from the blistering 14.9psi peak its making.


But I did manage to get this out of it:

Yeah, it pulls good, now to break in the clutch.

Sweet, looks good man! Think you'll be able to do 500whp on pump gas?
