Mike's boosted build

Kinda dumb question, but how old would you say is too old to boost an engine? >.>

I don't think any engine is to old as long as it is a healthy motor and transmission. If there are a few issues with the motor say like bad oil leak or lower compression in the cylinder adding a turbo would be bad without fixing the known issues first.

Just a heads up changing the window seals. It was a really easy job to replacement them it took me probably 7 min tops. Only thing that got me is i did not know about that screw on the rear window plate. It is hidden under the door seal.

Those are such a hassle, but as soon as you figure out how to get the first one done, the second is a breeze, then so forth. Your build is looking clean!
 
Finally found the limit to 4th gear. Just got in my GearX 1-4th but upon inspection found that a small chip was missing on my 5th gear so waiting again on gearX to ship.

:pout: How much power were you running?

At that moment not as much as I was originally running. I went to a dyno that week just to see the difference between low boost and 93 and higher boost on E-85.

attached is a pull on 93 and wastegate only.
