s14 ka-t mk3 ct26

Finally got a chance to hit up the dyno a few weeks back and was disappointed. Tune is way too rich. 9.7-9.9 afr's throughout the run. The jagged curve is from my spark plug gap which is fixed now. http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/4258/imgnewr.jpg These runs were at 10 psi Definitely leaning it ou...

pretty much theres a brace with two bolts on it at the center of the turbo. just unbolt the two and take the brace off. then just pry the turbo appart. of course this is an old turbo so it never comes off easy. you'll have to mallot it apart. i had to use a torch to heat it up red hot till it finall...

nope you will have to relcock no matter what. since the turbo is on the left side of the 7mgte. and will be on the right on the ka. but gl man.

havnt really hit the dyno but i should be around 230-250rwhp on the current setup.

im running a ct26 on my ka-t as well. that adapter looks handy, wished they had that months ago. im pushing 12 psi currently and thats probably the limit on the turbo until you do a trim upgrade. idk though. its okay, but it seems that its not as big as i'd like. its decent power. i'd say its around...

i got the same problem with my friends husky air gun. couldnt break my lugs off no matter what. maybe i torqued them too much.

those 500 dollar guns better break the lugs loose no problem. cant justify 500 dollars for a gun that cant break lugs loose! lol
