Im staying supercharged as well. If I need more power ill spray.

 

New problem

Car is breaking up at wot and half throttle, also terrible miss on cold dead cold starts after sitting all night
Interceptor is showing 20+ misfires on # 1 checked the plugs a few days back all looked fine, forgot to do a compression test, going to Test #1 tomorrow
Is it possible that the one coil is weak And getting blow out at medium to high boost?
Also took a fuel sample and its at 80% ethanol

 

when did it start doing this?
also did you end up racing friday?

 

move the coil to another cylinder. if the misfire follows. change coil.

 

also check the plugs, I had a a few have the ceramic break and drop over the electrode. Caused a miss under load pretty bad. 10 afr's and a flashing cel.

 

not unusual for folks to break the porcelain in the spark plug just removing and replacing. torque to 15 ft lbs; few people do, but it is important to do so.

 

Hard to tell until it's apart but looks like my phenolic intake gasket blew out on number 1
Paper for the loss
Compression was 180-180-180-176

 

Not surprised by the gasket, but that should have no effect on compression.

 

I know that ,not worried about my compression
I have a miss under wot on my #1 which is were the gasket it blown out

 

i had no success with the phenolic, either from leaks or from any benefit. Folks who have them, generally love them. They should they spent the time and money on them. I took mine off .

 

I never considered one in my build.

GMR didnt need them during testing, nor did Time Attack or the GA cars. That's my logic.

 

I took mine off as well. There appeared to be a minimal gain, but not quantifiable. It started leaking, so off it came.

 

that cylinder is rich under wot

I ditched my spacer also

 

Also check the O-rings on the injector insulators. Same thing happened to me a few years back and one of the o-rings was torn and leaking air.

 

Yes indeed. Buy new. CED. Replace. They are screwed/I dont even have to look to know lol

 

Yup

 

^^my work bench is heavily populated by black fittings. Lol

 

if the spacer is leaking you would see a drop in boost though right? then again even a pinhole might not show up but be harmful

 

Are you assembling them?

 

gonna make sure all the ends fit etc then I will decide if you or I will cut the hose and assemble. It depends on how successfully I lay it out and figure you will like what I have set up. OR I send all the stuff with bulk hose sufficient for you to a do it. If I do that, I will also send you some vice jaws for the hose; I assume you have a vice. Holding the hose, cutting it correctly and assembling the outer sleeve are the most difficult parts. The black classic hose from Russell really does assemble well. I got tips etc.

I am actually pretty excited about the set up to tell the truth and I squeezed the capacity you want which is much greater than one litre.

And I have decided to send you my sooper dooper 044 mounting bracket i acquired all the way from the UK coz I am such a decent guy lol.... it is blue, as blue is faster, so you will have to bring out the jiggle can for that black scheme of yours....

 

i had a slight drop in boost. i removed my spacer, it seems to have been my issue. the car runs alot better.

 

I want you to assemble the hose if you dont mind.

I will leave the bracket blue in memory of qwik

 

lol dont be whining if you dont like the hose lengths and the places I choose for you to mount things hehe. Should be good. fingers crossed lol

 

This should be a fun install

 

sooo, when i get my lsj in something and tvs back, i'll go air to air, maf relocate, tb after the fmic before the IM, and then a filter stuck on the end of the TVS...old school whine all the time not just when the TB is open lol
