Yea. We recirculate, but if you put the BOV before the MAF you won't have to worry about recirculating. Are you doing a blow through MAF setup or a Pre turbo setup? I would recommend the Blow through myself (and leaving the screens in place on the maf too).

Also, I need help, I need a shop in the fort wayne Area to balance my turbo since I forgot to mark it before taking the wheels off. Anyone know a shop that balances turbos in the area?

All fininshed and ready to go.
I have seen the car before. Its the Speed Inc shop car. I was told by a member on here to stay away from it because it pushes water whenever it runs. Don't know if its true or not, but indicated heads not sealing with block. That could be why they offer a LSx iron block with new 6 bolt heads for $60K. Would be a neat car, but If I get another toy car, I really don't want to spend more than about $30 or so. It would be a badass ride. But then again, getting something that fast means it just collects dust in the garage, after the first two times out, no one would run. I think a 10 second motor car or a 9 second FI/nitrous car would be about right for Ft. Wayne area.

Muncie has traction this year!

We ran the car last night at Muncie Dragway. We had reinstalled the M/T 325/50R15 drag radials that we had on the car last year, had the suspension set up the way we've been running it this year at this track. On the first and only pass it drug the rear bumper again, Ted let out of it several times and it kept coming back up. We had not been having that happen on the slicks.
It didn't hurt anything suspension wise this time, plus we have Madman's "save your ***" bars on it now. It barely touched the bars, Ted let it down softly each time. Once he was able to get back into it it still ran 148 mph through the traps, so it looks like the power is there. Somehow the cog belt was totally torn up and it took out the front seal in the blower. We had to pack it up and come home... Bob

Blake, those wheels are badass! Makes your car look a LOT better (and it wasn't really that bad before)

And that's exactly what it's gonna be, a street car. IF I do take it to the track, it'll be a nice easy launch... like always... with an insane trap speed... like always

We only got it that one run, in and out of the throttle three times with the wheelstands. We have new scrapes on the bumper vinyl wrap.
It ran a 9.602, 60ft was 1.432. Bob
