just out of curiosity, how would the metal shavings make it into the oil? as for the intercooler, if chris doesn't trust it then yeah, i'll replace it, but it's a massive intercooler, and i'm sure it wouldn't be cheap to replace it. unless chris says it has to be swapped, i'm going to hold off on doing so lol.

morale of the story, upgrade your BOV's and don't use used turbos lol

no, you have a valid point, do you know what style bearings are in the stock twins? if they're ball bearing they could very easily lodge themselves in the lines.......damn, now you have me worrying haha

I'm sure chris will figure things out regardless, this isn't his first time seeing a blown turbo haha. also it's getting a full rebuild so as long as the oil flushed everything into the pan and filter, it'll be cleaned out during the rebuild.

Dont call it a come back!!!!!!



Anyways...about Muncie


I69 exit 105.
Menard's parking lot would be an easy spot for all of us to get out to the interstate without traffic seperating us.
The shell gas station only has 92 octane so if you need to fill up, there's a Speedway gas station across the street that has 93.
Also, Remember forget to bring a helmet.

Bunch of us going to test/tune on Wed. the 14th at Muncie Drag...


Rob I looked it up, test/tune is from 5-9:30... and according to google it should take about 1.5hrs. Sooo there should be no reason for me to not make it down there by 5:30.

So everyone knows it only costs 15 to run and 5 for any spectators/crewmen.


I might even see if I can talk my stepbrother into bringin his car. lol -->

You only need a helmet if you're faster than 14.0.

You guys know it's going to be bloody cold, right? I might be up for a ride along, won't be taking the car down though (it's apart for rewiring and installation of my Alkycontrol system, and possibly a 2 step).

I have to check, but I may have time that will enable me to take that day off. If that is the case I'll join everyone as a spectator and be making money while watching you guys run.
