    Any barefooters on the forum? Barefoot Lifestyle

    Exactly! I work in I.T., and have to wear my Vibram Five Finger shoes at work, but as soon as I hit the door to leave, the shoes come off. I've actually been looking at getting these: http://magento.gost-barefoots.com/paleobarefoots.html

    I guess the Molnar rods do look similar. Shane! How are you liking that 25PSI? What kind of power? The only thing I'm really concerned about now are my gears in my trans-axle. Oh, and it looks like I forgot to provide updates: Test-Fitting: It's going to be a close fit:

    The Progression of my V.1 Street Sleeper Turbo build

    I was on Vancouver Island last fall, and loved it there. The next time we come back, I'll have to check out your ride. :)

    Dropped off the downpipe, manifold, and turbine housing at the ceramic coaters yesterday. Plan to have pictures of the results next week.

    That turbo will be more efficient due to the aerodynamics of the compressor wheel...not to mention the slightly larger sizing.

    Well, I finally got my engine out tonight. 10 years ago this was much harder for me to do...lol. In other news, inside the oil pan I found metal fragments ranging from fingernail sized, to small flakes. I'm so glad my turbo gave out before my engine had the opportunity to grenade. I'll open up...

    I finally got around to getting the engine out. My daughter helped me out last night while I was removing various accessories, hoses, and wires from the block. Now that all the wires and various accessories are out of the way, the fun begins.... Engine out tomorrow??

    Looks like the MAM Mid-pipe I received was 2.5 inches. I will have to get a mid-pipe fabbed probably. Anyone want the MAM Mid-pipe, let me know. Pictures have also been added to the first post. Alamo, I was probably only up around 300-315 WHP when my GT28RS died. I ran 15-17 PSI daily from...

    I got real lucky and sourced a brand new POPE.

    9:1 still. Not looking to make huge power, but enough. :) No money or time to consider a 505 Intake manifold as of now. Was barely able to source a POPE downpipe. I was worried for a minute that I would be rocking the stock MSP S-pipe!

    After 10 years of boosting hard on my current forged motor, I deemed it necessary to do a new build. One day on the way home from work, my turbo decided it didn't want any more. The fact that it lasted 5 years lessened the disappointment. The engine had been clattering for a while anyway, so...
