Me thinks it's the same problem that made it take over the hour it should have taken to tune the car.

What a hunk of junk :punch:

Loosing AFC Neo settings + not writing them down = tow home

Yea, I never had that problem too. That usually has a lot to do with whoever put it together though...

Oh no! I've always been afriad of losing my settings and totally forgetting about reloading them, but my car will hardly even run when link resets.

Could you tune around this out Shane, with the Neo of course? It's making a weird noise and the air/fuel ratios are way off but it still makes boost. If you could I'd make sure to write down the settings this time.

Re: Sombody got towed!
 
Oh no! Well at least you made it to the track and now you can build the motor over the winter! See the differences between this and next year. :D

Sorry to see this go down like that.

Re: Sombody got towed!
 
^ Well in that case, that blown block picture is from my celica earlier this year. Nothing major on my car broke, my alternator belt snapped. Looks like the pulley was put on backwards so its an easy fix and should be good to go by tomorrow.

Cliffs: Car runs fine, just had a belt grenade on me. I just like messing with people :rollinglaugh:

DUDE! Don't mess with us like that, I almost didn't even check this thread again and didn't realize it was a joke! Glad to hear it's something small!

The belt was pretty sweet and super strong, might want to keep it. If I was you I'd just wrap the belt in duct tape so it hopefully wouldn't put a hole in your block if it flew off, the duct tape would give it a little padding and even more stregnth. Make sure the duct tape is Takata green though, otherwise it'll just mess everything up.

Re: Sombody got towed! - edit-> it's alive!
 
^Damn I was almost sorted, but i have army green tape will take work?
I have a bit of a tech question here though.

How does the 3065 compare to a SC61/35R? I would think with the smaller exh. wheel (if thats right) would spool pretty damn quick compared to it.
