Boost leak from lower pipe from the map sensor threads. Took forever to track it down. Sent the pipe out to be fixed and should be installing again soon and then a redyno. I was supposed to be at 24psi but it would fall down to 18 right after 5100rpm.

hmm mine was doing this but only in 2nd gear. I'd hit 21 psi, then drop to 19 by redline. yet in 3rd and 4th I'd spike 26, drop to 24.

Mine would drop in every gear. 1-2 second would be better but they don't last long, lol. 3-4 would hit 24-25, hold for a few seconds then fall off hard.

Yea boost leak testing is good to do. A small leak can show serious signs of power loss and the car would still feel fast. Just takes two people usually.

I'd be happy with a leak because that means my car is gonna get faster and hold more boost. I'll have to turn it down around 4000rpm tho

I'm OK with the current boost level for a kill or dyno tune but for daily I will turn it down a bit in the mid. I'm running a lot of meth so if that goes I am in trouble but until them gonna be ok and I have a failsafe gauge

That sounds like a good plan. I can't wait for you to strap that thing to the rollers and get some numbers. Looks promising for the price.

I know I know but this car has been the biggest PITA this year if you knew what I've had to do and how much I've spent it's sickening. On sat I had my car running better than ever I was so happy took a friend for a ride raced a Speed 6 all was good. Later driving home my ZZP clutch wouldn't hold at boost anymore so now I have to pull the trans for the 3rd time in 50.000miles

I know, I was there with my old Supercharged SS. Takes ALOTTA patient slowly step by step to get it what I want. Now I have Turbocharged SS and I am starting all over again. I am getting new rims today! I will sell my stock rims in a day or 2.

The really annoying part was I felt so good about the car on sat I was ready to book for the dyno but then my clutch problems and I really don't have the budget to put out $500 for the intercooler shipped to my door and then right after $1000 for a full clutch job. I can't even hit real boost right now which sucks because I know how much fun it is but the clutch only lasted 2 days on it

Get GM performance clutch and labor job shouldn't cost you more than $500. I remember I spend clutch job on Supercharged SS for total of $700. It's not too bad, GM performance clutch is worth every penny that I had spend on. I will do it again with my Turbocharged SS.

I have a ZZP stage 4 right now I'm planning on doing a build soon. I only have 20,000 on this clutch taking it out getting flywheel machined to take the glazing off and if it still has life I'll throw it back in see how she holds if not I'm gonna buy a clutch masters stage 4 6 puck. I just want this one to last the summer then that'll make me happy

OK good. Term gave me some baseline numbers to compair to his best ever k04 with meth and a ZFR. I'll try to get them up tonight or tomorrow night. I'm helping put the LSJ back in tonight and it's my last night I can help so it may be a late one for me

I have to check through my logs because I just watched and old video and at 60 I'm shifting and around 100 I'm shifting I was not trying to do a clean 3rd gear 60-100 at any point in my logs. I did merge onto the highway a bunch and I'm usually in 3rd so I'll look at those
