Re: Make slowboy not so slow

I changed my wastegate spring to 3 lbs so I can run whatever boost I want, did some WOT pulls at low boost, and I have it set to 14psi now, still shifting around 5k rpms.

Still smokes quite a bit on startup until it warms up, then the smoking goes away. I have almost 50 miles on it now so I'm going to change the oil tonight, and check the turbo for shaft play and replace or clean out the filter on the oil feed line.

Do I need to give it more time for the rings to seat properly? I thought if they weren't done by now they would never seat all the way.
