^ Traction problems.
Hay Brandt I got that TurboXS BOV and mounting kit if you want. Its missing a few set screws but I was going to take it to work and get a few for it before I gave it to ya. I'll actually do that tonight. If your still interested. We definately need to work something out this weekend. I'm free all weekend. So just let me know when you guys want to go and we will work it out.

Brian I hope you get to feeling better man I hate to hear about that.

Yah he was having traction issues and he wasn't brake boosting so it took a min for the truck to get spooled, once the turbo's spool watch out cause, that thing is a monster!

I'd def. like to have that BOV if it will mount up properly and is 100% recirc. let me know how much you need for it and the part # so I can ask my tuner if it will work.

Looks like rain this weekend.... Sat. I got a side job and Sun. I got a B-day party for my son so lol we might be able to work something out.

It will mount up just fine and its a recirc. only. You can look at it right here: http://www.turboxs.com/more_info.php?ID=7
All BOV's are pretty much the same. The only difference is that vehicle specific ones come with a special mount so that they will bolt up. But here's the part # anyways though. Part No. RBV-H34
Its supposed to rain Sunday not Saturday. I feel like I'm going to have to stalk you to get a run here. I've been trying to get a run since December. No bullshit.

Cool, I just don't want to pulll the stock one off and find out it doesn't mate up for one reason or another, does it have a gasket with it?

Yah I know it's been awhile since you got your cam in there; Justin knows how to stalk better. The times we got together have just been spur of the moment runs, when I ran the truck he said you didn't want to race it so we didn't really think about it. This last time it was like the first time me and you raced I was on my way home from school. You need to race Justin he's always available and just itching to blow somebody's doors off.

It got o-rings where it mounts up to the adapter. But no there's no gasket where the plate mounts to the intercooler. I don't think it needs one. I don't think the stock one uses a gasket. I've used the plate before and it didn't leak but we could make one if you want I don't think it would make any difference though. I'll let you look at it sometime. Maybe this weekend sometime or something.

I told Gator I would race his truck but I didn't think there would be much point in it. I still will but with that truck trapping 120+ its more how bad is he going to beat me. I've been wanting to race the Goat for a while too though. He beat me up real quick when I first got the car (stock) but haven't raced him since. I figured we would just wait until we could all meet up and get a few vids of all of us. So I'm thinking tommorow night about 10 p.m. we could meat up at the power house. What do you guys think?

Its not supposed to rain today. So if everything dry's up which its got all day to do it'll be just fine.
I don't think Brandt's going to make it though. I haven't talked to him yet but I just get that hint. Did your girl bring that camera yet? You could bring the truck too if you want to see how much faster it is than your car. And mine.

Well I got my side job done early today, so I'm not completely out yet but my son's B-day is tomorrow and wife has me doing crap around the house. I've also started on the Gin and juice , if I can control myself I'll be good to drive tonight. I will make it at least to video tape the runs and my friend can drive me but I don't trust him to race my car.

I don't have a boost gauge in the car ( yeah can you believe I'm not A-pillar podded out !! ) but my tuning computer can read boost and I am down nearly a pound of boost cause of that stock diaphragm. I'd like to get together this afternoon/evening and see if that BOV you got can bolt on.
