Heat shields look great!

I always love the way you mod and maintain your vehicles. Straight perfection IMO.

When you are ready to sell this car, hopefully I will be in the position to make an offer on it.

Thank you!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Looks really nice! I'm impressed with the progress. Keep up the good!

Looks great!

Picking mine up today :)

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Pretty sweet looking internal gate.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Just got mine over lunch...some assembly required I guess lol.

You are sticking with the 18psi spring I assume Kracka?

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Correct; that is the proper spring for pump gas. The other is a secondary spring that can be added for those attempting to run only high-boost.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Correct, the other one is added for 25psi, thats what MAP said.

I figured you were going to stick with that one, was just curious though as I thought you were above 25, but I agree it makes sense for the 18.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

I run 27psig peak, but I want to make sure the WGA arm is able to have some pre-tension on it, I need some downward correction available for a 91-octane safe map, plus I don't want to combat any creep or spike issues. MAP's standard 25psig WGA has shown itself to be too stiff for my needs.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Too stiff, giggity.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

New MAP Turbosmart WGA installed and retuned with Cobb AP TEPHRA MODS!!! It's nice having knock CEL and 93/91 map-switching back :)

Ported exhaust manifold: 411/367 @ 26psig
Short-runner exhaust manifold: 416/374 @ 26psig

Gains are gains, I'll take them! I think this really proves that my stock cams are pretty much maxed out and the bottleneck in my system at this point. Chart coming soon.

Tell Kevin to crack the whip over there so we can get graphs to look at haha

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Was that you that texted me this morning, well sat morning?

I was confused haha.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

That was me :)

Before and after (MAP short-runner exhaust manifold & MAP Turbosmart WGA):

http://www.dsmstyle.com/photopost/data/641/IMAG0649.jpg

There is a noticable increase in the mid-range, that's where I'm really feeling it. Plus, the turbo seems much more responsive with this new WGA which makes sense since the WG was able to be properly tensioned, I wasn't able to run any pre-tension with the original 25psi WGA. Although spool does appear a touch slower, torque picks up a little bit quicker.

Knock CEL is setup at 3 counts (slow) and 5 counts (fast), but I've yet to see a single flash even with two pulls to 140+ so far :D

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Very nice pump gas setup, Chris!

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

I was just out ripping around some more and this car is seriously the ultimate DD street car! Handling is spot on, it rips through the gears, reliability has been decent, and it drives smooth as stock.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

Looking good buddy!

Bout time Cobb got the Tephra shit. Too bad they dumped tephra too, but you got the important stuff :)

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
 

No Moar tephra @ Cobb?

Looks like perfect daily driver power! Time to leave it alone now!
