Re: here's my little project

well here is another update. the car is up and running and survived a trip to st.cloud. still smokes a lot though. but I have it up to 15psi with no knock so far. I'm shooting for 20psi or maybe a couple more by saturday.

I'll post up a pic or two tomorrow

Re: here's my little project

well the turbo blew up in 120 miles! I'll let you all know when I get stuff figured out but certain people are a lot more difficult to deal with. its not that hard to refund a persons money and take back thier junk product!!!!

Re: here's my little project

as of right now he's full of excuses on why he can't give me my money back. so we'll see I might just have to have this one rebuilt by someone who actually knows what they are doing

but with my oil pressure a jb turbo shouldn't need one. and the options I have came up with to fix the sitiuation are very reasonable. but he's dead set on rebuilding it again but if it's going back on my car I don't want him touching it.
