So when you show up at the next car show...we can call you peanut and squeaky?

 

Unless someone else can pull lower dyno numbers then me, I will always be the peanut of the OGC - 20s, non rev, & automatic

 

I am right there with you bash. Hopefully getting a tune will help a little.

 

^a picture of you with a tiny dog as your avatar will raise you a few HP...

 

Just talked to SLowmotion and My turbo is back in, running...

and my new parts (SPC front and rear camber kits with Toe bolts are in as well) will all be installed and back on the road by Tuesday or Wednesday!) Pics to Follow as I get them!

 

Going up to slowmo today to see what condition everything is in. If the install was completed on Tuesday (camber kits) the next steps are alignment and then to double check everything on the Turbo to makes sure turbonectics got it right this time...

 

You told me you'd get your car back this week! Are you still on schedule for that or no?

 

I hope so...it is only Thursday. I am going up there today to check out things. It all depends on how the turbo is holding up, that is, if it is still leaking oil like it did after the 1st rebuild.

 

nice, well good luck with the visit today. Hope everything works out

 

when are you going Jeremy, I might tag along if that's cool?

 

^ I wish I would have know...Tom you just need to text or call on that sort of thing. Tomorrow I might go again depending on if I get the call to come pick it up!!! I will let you know.

Drove the G back from the alignment shop to Slomo...still smoking. So the guys are going to try another trick and let me know tomorrow after they roll my fenders.

 

not a problem man, I ended up having to take care of some stuff anyways

 

Update for Friday, the 5th...

As it stands, the Alignment is done. The camber kits worked awesome. Even on the OEM 19s, my car looks like it has a better stance. Once the Fenders get rolled Monday and the new wheels go on, it should look pretty good! Alignment shop said the front toe was so out of wack it didnt even measure on his equipment. Major cause for the feathering on my fronts of course. Front is back to spec while the rear is at a -1.5 degrees, the closest he could get (OEM is -1.0).
As for the turbo, I drove it back from the alignment shop and got on it a few times while Brooks drove behind me and even made a video to show corey and wyan how bad it was still smoking. Ryan believes that the set up should have a restrictor in the oil line to the turbo, while Turbonectics says it is not neccessary for ball bearing turbos under 100psi. Ryan said that every turbo he has dealt with that was a ball bearing had a restrictor inline. Today they started to mess with it and it turns out that they need to build or contruct a new line and they will get the parts on Monday.
So its another try at this. Hopefully its not the turbo again. Considerations in the back of my mind??? Buying a Garrett Ball Bearing turbo to replace it...maybe.

 

U can't catch a break can u? Good Luck!

 

pardon my ignorance and i mean no offense going into this...

why a turbo rather than a supercharger? Wouldn't utilizing your belt power be a better alternative to back pressure generated in turbos? Would you still have this oil issue with an SC?
