the charge piping that I used was ASS!!! I thought that the flex tubing was air tight, but I guess it's only good for exhaust and not comperssed air!:dunno:

YUP!!! Just finished fine tuning my wastegate.....I could get a bit more technical, but not many people would understand what I was talking about!!! haha, actually, I'll tell you anyway, I just finished adjusting my coathanger (my wastegate) and I was able to hold a steady 7 psi all the way up to 7000, then I shifted cuz it got scary!!! hahaha. Some times, I could only get about 5 but 3rd gear pulls like a hippo!!! haha, we'll see how she holds up this week, but chances are that I won't take it to SS just yet. Possibly a 403 meet or something cuz I know there were a lot of people wanting to see the GTP (ghetto turbo prelude!) hahahaha:rofl:

running a t3 with a compressor ar of .60. fucker spools so fast!! haha. I'm just kinda regretting not setting up my ct26 when I had it. Kinda curious as to how it woulda worked. Oh well, I like the t3. T3 is good, but I think a t3/t04e would be better!! hahaha.:rofl:

at this point, I don't even think I need a wastegate!!:eek: My coathangar seems to be doing a good job of regulating 7 psi!!! hahaha, but we'll see. I may even consider an external, but for now, my coathangar will do1!:thumbsup: :rofl:

hahahha, I am a ricer!!! haha, just kidding...I think!:confused: :dunno: :rofl: This turbo doesn't protrude that much compared to the ct26 so it's a bit better, but I still need to make and finish my hood scoop soon!! hahahah
