well i realized what the problem was with the boost guage bob, there was a kink in the line where it is plugged into the gauge to where we positioned it so the line bent straight down and cut off circulation, i need to rerun the line, and the boost gauge somewhere else, so the line wont kink up again, the extra line we had left seems long enough to reposition the gauge somewhere else, but i may need some more wire though if you wouldnt mind, glad i figured it out, as soon as i took the gauge down from the steering wheel, it went straight to 20 vac... i am relieved i dont have to by another gauge,lol i though i was about fed up with damn car, but problem didnt seem as bad as i thought it was.

i'm busy this wknd..I can't hook you up with the wga help. Sorry. Glad it was a simple fix too with the gauge.

Yeah. I know this car is capable of a nasty time. I'm bogging a little launching, plus runnning out of 4th really early crossing the traps in neutral! LOL

I'm gonna talk to the guy here on MON about the carbonetics. It's a twin, but I want to verify part #'s to make sure it's legit. He's gonna let them (2 of em) for like 750 something!!! I'm willing to try them if they aren't crap for that $$

yeah, that pic is truly troubling.
I hear ya totally though! I plan on going with shep trans. I'm just wondering if I should do the t-case upgrades at the same time. Why not right?

Ben, you get those logs?

Jason, I can shoot you a log or two of the track last night just to see how she's running. It holds 25psi solid, 11 afrs solid. It pulls really nice. The timing holds true to the map too. It's sweet!

Don't be surprised when you find yourself at my house removing my tranny before I get back to be rebuilt. Double synchro 5th and Evo VIII 4th gear for me please.
