What have you done to your MSP today?

Looks like my turbo should be coming in today and the rebuild kit will be here Friday or Saturday. So the turbo and dp should be in by next weekend. And i may have sourced a uncracked ceramic coated callaway manifold for just shipping....if it gets here in time ill be makeing tthe relief cuts and installing it at tthe same time.....
 
the trunk release in the cabin quit working. not a big deal but just another little thing added to the list
 
Destineal it's funny how you and I have very similar set ups. I also run the TXS H.

I have a RFl and thought it was too much. I also have a GReddy S which I still ike but perfer the TXS H and formerly had a Blitz dual valve which was way to quite. I went through a phase where I was buying BOVs just to try them out.
 
well if this eGay one craps out I might come calling for that greddy :p

It's a cable release, what do you think is wrong with it? Check the latch in the trunk where the cable attaches and see if it has come loose.
 
Wish my damn fans were here so I can actually run the car and tune the BOV lol

I still need to tighten it some to find the sweet spot between leaking air @ idle and no compressor surge.

Although, is a BOV leaking air at idle really a bad thing? Didnt the stock BPV "leak" at idle, it was just recir?

I was just driving and my car completely died while going about 70 down the highway in 5th. It has power and will crank but will not start, it didn't overheat, the clutch engages, it doesn't make any noises and there is no oil or anywhere or holes in the block. Did the LSD go? I'm thinking maybe the MAF or cam position sensor, if either of those went out the car would crank but not start right? It threw a CEL but i'm waiting for my buddy to get here with his code reader to find out. I've got my fingers crossed and i'm thinking positively but I have a bad feeling.
 
my silvia gt25 came in today....it needs a good cleaning but all in all not to bad for $50 ;)
