I 100% understand. Chad is pretty understanding too, maybe he has a way to make it work out for all of us.

meh, enough of that. I can't wait to post some pics of the surge tank setup! Definitely swinging by FB after work, whether they call me or not.

**mlomker** · 07-07-2010

Surge tank ftw! Full Blown did a great job on this. They also cut me a really good deal in light of the challenges I've had. Much appreciated!

They recommended that I continue to run the double pumps into the surge tank and the Bosch 044 to the motor. They wired the Bosch as always on so the motor is getting a lot more fuel than it use to. I took it on an aggressive test drive and it worked perfectly. I had a fairly impressive part-throttle backfire once but that's to be expected with it being rich at lower rpms.

The setup could always be re-wired so that the Bosch is variable if it proves too difficult to tune for whatever reason.

Wahoo! Congrats man!!!

The second Walbro seems like overkill to me, but it is only on under boost. It probably won't hurt anything.

I'm thinking a Black when they are commonly available. Maybe over the Winter I can ship off my stock turbo and have it upgraded. If my BBX stays together until then then that's the plan.

I already have a tubular for a stock-frame turbo plus I'm going to have a custom intake made.

^This.

Good luck man. I hope this works for u

**Murlo26** · 07-08-2010

I agree, i doubt you need the 2nd one, but its in there, so whatever

Now you just need an intake!

Yeah but now I'm thinking about putting that off until August. My next track date is the 26th and I'm tired of missing them.

I need to have the fuel trims checked and that takes some time given Shane's schedule. If the car could stay in once piece long enough for one track day this Summer then that'd be nice.

I say just have DB/MAP/RS or someone rework your AMS intake to accommodate a 3.5" MAF housing. Should only take a few hours. Plenty of time until the 26th man.

Then have primo make it look good. You will have some wait time i am sure until shane can fit you in anyway. Intake time

Do you have a wideband? Get going on the evoscan logs we discussed, I can help you out if shane is too busy.

Planning to install a wideband on Saturday. Brought the laptop to work but didn't have time last night. Between grad school, work, and shuttling the car from shop to shop...I'm fried. I don't know how people with kids manage. lol.

**scheides** · 07-08-2010

Lomker, sell your twin-pump setup to someone plus their stock hanger, recoup some of that lost $$ man!

I am almost offended by that.

mlomker, Saturday, lets get that wideband on and log this thing. MOD day is almost here!
