at 6500 rpm the wasetgate SHOULD be open.
the buzzer is completely unrelated, though. he's probably talking about the fact that stock TIIs don't hold boost very well to redline.

As far as shifting go's, if your car is not sickly... Tac that biatch out!!! Then, if you have mad quick shift skillz
, You can shift into your next gear w/o dropping out of your power band, (it dosent take that quick of a shift to keep it up there.)-Blake

Hee Hee. You know why the passenger was freakin? Any one thats done it knows.
5mph sober = 25mph "intoxicated"
So think about 60-90 mph on curvy backroads intoxicated. The poor bastard probably about **** himself.

are you hypntyz7? but with a new, sleek name?
midnight blue with shiny wheels if i remember right. twas clean.
when we going for a ride kevin?
I dont know...it's not all that different from a lightly modded t2, really. The engine probably makes a few more horses, but the weight of the vert slows it down a little more so it doesnt feel any different.
What exhaust do you have on there?
By chance that isn't the turbo that I sold you
SO how fast did u end up getting RR?
The back end is sliding just a hair...need better tires.
where is your tachometer needle?
Are you running stock headlights still?

No, that thing got sold on ebay a long time ago. IT had too much shaft play, so I never bothered with that thing.

Humm, I just wondered, because that turbo had a chunk of the rotor houseing sleeve in the hot side.
Don't ask me how it got there.

It is a stock s4 turbo. The car runs a big SP, high compression (helps it spool quickly...to quick in fact on the highway it stays in boost) hybrid engine, cone, TID, full RB 3" exhaust, and knightsport ecu.
Soon I will sport a greddy FMIC, 4x720cc injectors, a t04E and divided manifold, and probably a microtech.

I am doing it as an experiment.
A) I know what I am doing, or at least pretty close to it
b) if I tear it up, it is not an issue to build another engine and have it running within a couple of days.
c) I am cautious with my setup
I do not recommend it for the general population, or those who like to be hard on their cars all of the time.
Note also that this is a custom built hybrid block...3mm seals and turbo irons, so it isn't your neighbor's 6 port turbocharged motor..it was purpose built.

Nice vid. That turbo sounds sorta like mine actually. You say its a stock turbo though? Mine screams and hums like that but its a t304 and I got no AFM (mmmmMicrotech). Good vid though for sure, made me really wanna go out driving on some twisties.
