how much boost do you want to run in a long term? the higher the compression the less boost you can run and the more HP/LB you get. the lesser the compression, the lesser the HP/LB but the more boost you can run before detonating. So long you're not running some really high boost level , 9:1 should ...

sensor

I think your temp sensor is defective. Just touch the rad and it usually should be at the 1/2 way mark when it's burning to the touch.
if your rad is warm/hot an the gauge is down then you need a new sensor.

How do you calculate trim/power rating of a turbo

Hello guys
A friend of mine gave me a T3/t4 turbo, no info on it what so ever, Is there any way I can mesure the trim in order to associate it with a compression map?
i currently have a t3/t4 in my car but I wanted to know if the one gaven to me was better and more efficient.

thanks.

fuel

One more thing, unplug the distrubutor and crank the car till there is no more fuel in the rail before you remove the injectors, the fuel spillage will cause your harness or misc line to dry up and crack.
I forgot to mention that earlier,

FYI: I have ran mine vented out and vented in along with my JWT ka-t setup.
It ran better vented in, could also be because the BOV was slightly leaking .
Vent out only if you have a MAP sensor.

That usually causes the injectors to pop right off. I have done it countless time and they always come out perfect without any crack. wo...

Just wondering

I was told that by o-ringing a block, I should be able to run a stock headgasket at high boost without any problem.
Would this be better than getting a metal headgasket?
