Got the new filter put in and took it for a test drive. Spools fast, but the 1-2 shift killed me, really made me feel my operation LOL. So i'll give it a rest as well for a few days.
Kyle, not worried too much about the hospital bill, should be BIG but nothing I can't get past. Just have to concentrate on getting better.
Hope to go to the track friday night as a spectator tho, I'll need a driver to pilot the car down the 1/4 tho...need to test this lil turbo out.

. I'm suppose to be heading out of town on vacation but a project I'm working on had some "funny" results. Need to stick around to figure out what the hell is going on.

Thanks Kyle it was rain water and a bath towel. Me and the pops were in a mad rush to get a cheapie air filter on the car to get it moved(roofers were coming the next day early in the am) and it was raining out. Rain water got all over the engine and I wiped it down with a bath towel....other than that I usually clean it once a week
Don, hope it just gets back into the 11's at this point. Just experimenting for now until I get a T76GTS or S76-S78 turbo. Funny how a turbo can be loud or quiet, guess the compressor housing inlet has a lot to do with it. The anti surge compressor housing on the GT42 i'm sure was responsible for the noise it made.

Hey bro, glad your feeling okay. Mom, Dad, and I were joking around about them waking you up while we were in the waiting room that night. You did exactly what we thought you would do. Poor nurses......
Looks good. Not use to seeing an airfilter sticking up right there.
