damn! so you haven't had any huge issues either huh? Thats awesome.
I might be shooting you some pm's in the next couple weeks to come about tuning because i'm just starting putting my stuff together. Hopefully you wont mind

it's leaking at the head... cylinders 2&3 are basically not going through the turbo and/or exhaust.
Stud broke, and gasket is now gone. Ripping it all apart hopefully this weekend. New gaskets and studs and should be good to go. Just gonna take at least 6 hours to pull everything out and put it back together. Also new wategate on the way, so I might just wait til next weekend before I dyno

hey what exhaust manifold gasket are you currently using? the stock one i assume? I bet that the stock manifold gasket could be much improved if some of the useless "ports" werent in it. like the ports in teh gasket right below the head port holes. im sure you know what im talking about. PM me cause i am working on getting custom ones made.

yeah hopefully. I need to get it finished before next sunday since that's the next dyno day. Gonna be one hell of a thrash next thurs-saturday to get it all apart and back together again. Pretty much Have to take the exhaust off, take the turbo out, drop the manifold.. etc etc.

GM won't take my car back on a trade in, plus I really like my car anyway. Have spent a lot of money on parts to build the new motor up for this one. PLus the LNF is gonna be a bitch to tune with the direct injection. I"ll probably pick up a few parts off the new one though like the rims and brakes to update what I got.
But also the new ss/tc ain't making 350+whp like I am lol

i think the lnf balt is good for all ecotecs though because no matter what ... it gives more opportunities and at least now we'll have an intake mani and turbo mani that works easily
NOW if we could just get some tuning for those damned 2.2s
