Well I’ll see how it runs next Saturday, have a alignment appointment next Saturday should be over a hundred miles round trip. I think my transmission is on its way out sometimes when I go WOT the engine revs up but I don’t gain any speed. I’m lost on what to do.

Me too, hopefully he doesn’t back out this time. I’m staying the weekend , plan is to drop it off Friday, work on it Saturday and Sunday and I’m going to have it towed after we’re done don’t really want to drive it 11 miles up the hill going from 2k DA to 5k DA . Really needs to be fine tuned. Plus I have 4 free tows with AAA. I’ll tune it once I’m up here.

So decided to make a thread for my turbo build, going in January 2022. The Turbo is a Garrett Gt35r with a T4,.63ar, Tial 38mm wastegate 10lb spring, Tial 50mm bov , eBay headers. Have -4an line for the oil feed line with .035 oil restrictor, -10an return line to the oil pan, 3” down pipe back to the rest of the 3” exhaust. Have plx wideband, shift glow fuel psi gauge, just got a mks digital vac/boost gauge , should be easier to read when driving. Also 2 Aeruoforce gauges and will be tuned by Hptuners.31”x12x 4” alm. Intercooler, 2 1/2” alm. pipping.Turbosmart boost controller.
