Wow... of all the times i said "be careful" and "watch what
you do" and "you'll need a programmable engine management system to run the kind
of boost levels you want to run" and when you wouldnt take any advise and say
you knew it all........
I would like to say:
I'lI told you so. Good luck selling
it.
P.S. A 40 degree drop in intake temps really isnt much -
i have helped a friend build a turbo/AWD eclipse that runs very low 12's on
street tires and full interior and full street trim on pump gas, with 21psi
- and his intake temps are never more than a few degrees above ambient
temp.
I am
selling my custom turbo kit. I have used this Turbo Setup for a year now and
now I KILLED my ENGINE. I am selling this setup because i no longer have th
money to mess with cars anymore. I LOVE this setup but the problems STARTED
WHEN I GOT GREEDY WITH THE BOOST CONTROLLER. Well to make this short, I wanted
more boost so i turned up the boost seloniod to open at 12 pounds and SURE
enough when i held on the gas i melted #2 & #4 pistons. I even had 8.3:1
compression in it. I will list a few things that will come in the
setup. 2 IHI RHB5 T25 watercooled turbos WITH INTERNAL WASTEGATE
