Not even making good power yet, and already breaking stuff.
Automotive GalleryVehicle (meaning anything with an engine) and related pictures and videos go here, everything else goes in one of the Eye-Candy forums.

Ya, I still think there is an issue. I think I may need some stronger valve springs. At 17-18#'s and pump gas, many poeple with stock motors and this turbo kit are making mid 700"s, so I feel like I should be near 800 on pump. My dyno graph levels off at 5k rpm. Onc I get the tranny back in and the track season is over, I will prob. be putting new springs in.

12.63 @ 111. the power is obviously lower than i thought, gotta get it on a dyno and find out what the problem is. probably too soft a tune and maybe not seeing much boost at all.
