I would if I were you. Also I would keep the turbo and see if you can get it rebuilt for a decent price incase it happens to you again. This way you will find out what went wrong with the turbo unless you already know.

Awesome! So did you make sure the car was warm when you did the compression check?

Well considering there have bene numerous people who have ran over 500whp on the stock block and they still are in tact I m going to say that yours should last a very long time.

Nope. Its not going to happen because he found out how fast my car really is He knows now that I'll beat him We'll just say his car can barely beat a stock Evo9.

See I told you it wasnt going to be a problem. I know this cause I pretty much beat everyone down there that races. And if I beat them then we all know what will happen when you race them.

Didnt he also say that his car was NA? I cant beleive he would make such claims of beating a turboed z28.

Hey have you raced the whippled cobra after your tune and mods? Cause you said you are now pushing 10psi right?

No new runs with the Whipple. I did run a 700whp TT Cobra that I beat with the new mods

I'm running 13psi now I was only running 9 before.
