do you know what the green and white marks on the inducer are?

a machine shop lacks the ability to rebuild that turbo, or any turbo for that matter.

i'll put this very simple. if the bolt was removed from the shaft with a ratchet, it's most likely bent. it takes very little torque to throw the main shaft off. you won't see it with your naked eye, but the balancer will at 50k+ rpms. if there is a finger print on the carbon seal, it will never seal.

The car is in Nebraska, I'll be driving it up to Michigan to ZZP for tuning. I'll probably put it on E85. But I'll have it tuned for regular gas too. There is no E85 here in Germany, but I'm still not 100% sure that I am going to bring it over here.

I'm going with a Clutchmaster Stage 4 clutch, 6 puck sprung. That way it's not too harsh on the street but it still got enough clamping for the power that I'm making.

The car is going to be built to behave like a normal stock car when driving around town, and then get violent when I want it to. ZZP stage 2 turbo cams (much milder than the stage 3s, better for idle and cruising), fully race ported head (well over 300cfm intake side/200 exhaust side), ferrea oversized valves, zzp valve springs, la sleeves, wiseco pistons (stock compression, stock bore).

We'll see how many passes I can make before they realize I don't have a cage.
I love my stage 4 CM's. I am always on other forums and there are srt's running 10's full weight at 420whp. Gives me something to look up to lol.

Here is something else I found also, might get these and give them a shot next year.

True That. but, I spent a 100 bucks on my drag bags, this is only 100 bucks also and it should help out tremendously with 60fts. Sometimes, if it's not expensive, it's nice to just buy the kit since it comes with everything all nice and neat.

Competition Engineering Front End Travel Limiters - JEGS

That's the competition engineering ones. I still like the DCR ones though because they look easier to install. No welding required.

It's been below 30 for several weeks now and snows everyday. Today was a little warm in the mid 30s and everything started to melt. At least it doesn't get below zero here like it does in nebraska.
