Holy crap I think I just wet myself.

Look at the cog belt in the back! Does it have a clutch or something on one side so when you get off the gas it free wheels? I have no idea how these things work.

What is it going on?



Edit...I just re read your sig...I am assuming it's going on your truck?

yes, it's going on the truck......cog rear drive is just to make sure the belt doesn't slip.

We're using the TVS 2300 on this Hummer H2 that we are building for a customer over in Saudi Arabia. http://www.exoticperformanceplus.com...Car.php?car=56



We are puzzled by the shape of the ports though. I hope it flows! Bob

That funny looking black cylinder with the caution sticker on the side is a by-pass valve actuator. It opens an internal bypass valve at high vacuum to reduce parasitic loss, then closes it when you get on the gas to build pressure again.

Eventually, but not at first. Plan is to start where I left off with the 122 at about 10lbs of boost. The next step will be about 14lbs. I have the ability to run 20lbs but that will come later.

I've never seen one of those black gaskets before that go between the head and the intake manifold. Is that an OEM part or a custom Mag. part?
