been busy painting other car so have been slack again with this one, did spend some time but trying to figure out why the turbo wouldnt stop leaking and ended up being stupid cheap catch can being to restrictive, so bought a new one and ran some bigger breather hoses and problem solved. also fitted a bosch plumb back bov to help a bit with the surging with big boost. still yet to see dyno again but feels really strong with 25psi on the street.

have holidays from work in a couple off weeks so should get a chance to make a trip to the drags to see what shes got.

booked dyno friday

very cool man, let us know how the tune goes!!

tune not good, seems to be building up pressure in cooling system, so looks like head needs to come off for a little peak as to whats going on.

damn, hopefully nothing serious :P

head will be coming off tomorrow hopefully just need to replace head gasket and hopefully the head or block isnt cracked fingers crossed.

head gasket got changed saturday but still same problem, checked bore and head while off but I'm thinking there may be a crack in the head somewhere that i couldnt see so will be changing head this weekend.

new head is on and all seems to be good so far is pulling much better on the street. will try doing some more road tuning in the next few weeks. car is also for sale now to so i can finish other projects.
