thanks alot man i love how it came out

it seems that the flutter was caused by some vacuum line issue i replaced it with 1 continuous line and it seems to have vanished lol apparently there was a leak in it someplace lol

so far i'm liking the dirrezza's they're a much quieter tire then the rt 615's i'm tryin to so some " proper" tire break in so i haven't really tested them out cross my fingers but i think my car is almost done for a while lol

this just in... ~12.5 psi at 6700 .. traction is limited.. hopefully i'll get dyno and track time soon

also .. i'm having some issues with the car vibrating periodically.. I think the rims need to be balanced.. when i was working on the car the other day i noticed there are no weights at all on the passenger side rim

basically yea 252 209 both were a bit over that but yea basically

when i dynoed it last time with issues and prior to new intake manifold i put down 248 whp and 236 wtrq and i wasn't making boost past 5k so everything would tank.. boost would go from 8.5 down to 5-6 psi at redline and i'd only be making like 170 wtrq lol

seems like the saab intake manifold is working great so far but yes there is a bunch of things you need to modify it's not really a direct bolt on

if my shop sends me the pictures i'll post up everything he did

he is going to make a how to on it eventually

valve cover is tapped for extra crankcase breathing over the baffle it goes no where as of now but will go to a catch can.. that being said tapping it over the baffle should NOT produce enough oil in the tube to have anything leak out. if you do then you have SERIOUS blowby issues.. the stock 2.2/2.4 oil cap is vented .. look at the bottom there is a small hole and the lip around the cap is open
