Re: What did you do to your turbo today?
Well after 10 years? i pulled my carbs off for a rebuild. I just could not get the car to run with out spraying fuel. Ordered rebuild kits from e bay. I wanted to get them from CB performance but they wanted 18$ to ship. No thanks.

Re: What did you do to your turbo today?
Drove my 2276 yesterday, while my son watched&listened he's more up on turbocharging then I
once in a while I heard a bang just when I shift to 4th,, it's was the wastegate slicks on a sandy/dirt road is fun
still have stock trans stage I and a sprung center 4 puck
this sunday drags at Boyne City will be the 2nd time I've run it on pavement 18lbs in the slicks will help save the trans i hope
I'll just have some V8's yes, my lil' crew chief will be helping, not quite 2yrs old and his 2nd drag event ,, I'll post the results next Monday Thanks for all the help guys!!!!

Re: What did you do to your turbo today?
Drag racing will allow you to get away with a smaller sump -- the bigger sump is needed for cruising for temp control and road racing to keep some oil around the pickup

Re: What did you do to your turbo today?
Tip:app. for Deep sump,, for a pick-up tube extension I use a old aluminum empi adjustable/spring loaded tube(junk anyhow) cut to fit
they are perfect for this seal/attach with JB weld,no more running to the hardware for conduit that don't fit right
hope this help someone? ,I've spent hours looking for the right size tubing before
