Got new windshield today, it's all clean

Did a pull from 30 - 90 today on 18 PSI. felt weird since we're not done with tuning yet but it pulled hard. Just had very different degrees of pulling from what I'm used to. And my boost controller sounds awesome when it hits it's peak boost.

Here's the photo I posted of it on Sunday lol
He charged me 350 for a full 3 in catback with a magnaflow resonator and magnaflow muffler. He also doesnt do the crush bend **** which I like. It would be less expensive for 2.5 in.

More than likely the heat. The car didn't want timing, even at 11.0 to 11.2.. Up to it only wanted about 13... Once we get the fueling down it will hit harder low to mid end and even up top...

Damn car! I did a pull at 20psi this morning, not to redline, and I was flowing 26lb/min at the MAF and only 6 lb/min at the map... Something is wrong. I finally put together the boost leak tester so I am going to test it today. I hope its a boost leak. If it isnt I am going to get new gaskets for the blower and intake manifold. Might as well get the phenolic spacer for the manifold while I have it ripped apart.

Oh and I have 2 codes:

P0069
P0121

Ugh, more to figure out.

Where is your MAP? Is the turbo trying to force air through the blower or do you have an external bypass?

I have it fully bypassed after 3k ish. So it is getting through however it can. I know there was going to be a pressure drop... but not 20ish lb/min worth. Something is wrong..

I am more than likely ditching the blower kit and upgrading to the GTX3076R. The turbo will be enough and I am tired of the headached of the twincharge. Since I dont know if its the blower causing the problems or the turbo... Just getting rid of the less powerful one.

The GTX turbo is capable of 640HP compared to my GT only about 525HP.. Should be enough to keep up or beat Nick.

my bs of the day. I put 2 gallons of 100 octane then filled the rest with 91. car seems to like it better, idles a bit smoother, and isnt as ball less with the a/c on. maybe its just me, but my car hates the heat. i would hate to see what kinda knock i have right now.

You need a tune! haha

About the blower, if I can sell the kit as a whole I would rather do that becasue I still need to buy an intake manifold (looking for a hahn). The kit is going to fund the intake manifold and new charge pipes.
