Done Deal If You Guys Commit To It.

 

I plan on being there. I have to drop off my truck at Level 10 again on the 5th so the trans can be gone over. I would think it should be done by Friday. I will drop them an e-mail now to confirm if it will be finished and if it can be beat on right away.

 

I will be there. How about the Phil and the Conductor? Mike has to show off all these new parts........

 

Yeah I got the hood, good deal could not pass up........ friday sounds good this week for hooters, and next week for island....... now all we gotta do fast is decide which hooters. I don't mind driving to get to franklin, but if the majority is closer to wayne, I am just up the road. btw, in case none of you caught on, my truck looks a bit different :

 

wayne sounds good you guys drove up last time .....go my 100hp sticks in today started tearing thr turbo out for the switch...just came inside got hungry ....wanted to do a wrench day this sunday but I'm workin 6-2 so as long as the afternoons are nice like today I should have her all done but friday...so all I got left is turbo, raptor pump and my tst
side note.....any body now how to get the bottom nut twards the firewall off the turbo flange

 

So Friday in Wayne it is. Should we say 7pm or is that too early?

 

7 pm sounds good , stragglers welcome..... Gary, that nut sounds like a ****, anyway you could take manifold off and do it on the bench? I hear it gets heavy fast but if you can not get at it it is an option.

 

thats what I didnt want to do but the more I search the more it lookslike I have to pull the mainfold

 

HEY GUYS IM CONFUSED LOL , are we going to island fri or not.i thought it said you guys were going then it shifted to hooters.

 

Yes you need a stuby combo wrench using the open end. You then proceed to use swear words you never used before and if your lucky you'll end up with bloody knuckles trying to make sure it's tight when you put it back on.
If you have trouble getting the new turbo in place don't be afraid to loosen the bolts that hold the housings clocked so you can rotate the wastegate to fit it in. Rotate back into place and retighten after turbo is bolted up to manifold. Use 2000* anti-sieze on all hardware! I did and it made it possible to remove the hardware when I did the twins. (if you ever have to take them off)

If you need to borrow a wrench let me know. Good luck!

 

Hooters this Friday, and Island next Friday.

 

ok, thanks angelo, hopefully ill have my smarty for island.

 

not sur if hooters is working fo rme this friday, have to work earyly sat.

but next friday i will be there and maybe head up to hooters in franklin for sat.

 

lets start hearing some predictions on quater mile times, whos gonna run what, lets go everybody speak up. ill start with myself, i think with the edge ill be lucky to break 14 flat, and with the smarty mid 13's, im not to sure about 4wd launches, how much boost can i leave the line with do you think. ive never tryed it yet, and i hear alot about it, that you can shave 4 tenth's of your time.

 

When did you order it?

As for 1/4 times, I hope to be around a 12.5 I think my biggest problem is going to be hookin up comming out of the hole. I was spinning all fours last year on level 5 and actually got my best times running level 4.(vA C5 box)
I leave at 15 pounds of boost because of my tight converter. Any more than that and I have a hard time keeping the truck from moving. It really wants to push through the brakes. You will just have to play with settings and leaving at different boost pressure.
