Gosh it's the whole weekend right there!

 

[sleeper3]

this has turned into the best forced induction thread of today, for sure.

 

[shadrag]

Off...off topic, my forge should be waiting at home for me after work...wooo!

 

[sleeper3]

hahaha off off topic back to original

God, you're going to love that thing. the best part was after I was done putting it on, I was all "that's it?"

all you need is a 10mm socket and a pair of pliers.

edit: also, a 2-3 inch extension doesn't hurt. that way you're not clanking the valve or the intake as you tighten.

 

[sleeper3]

oh, and I do like the blue spring. the yellow might be too soft. I'd swap it out before you put it on.

 

[shadrag]

Yeah, gotta love the install. I'm still not sure on the whole yellow vs. blue spring, I'll probably end up trying both.

 

[shadrag]

Ah, thanks, yeah, I'm leaning towards blue, but unless I try both I'll always wonder what the diff is.

 

[sleeper3]

well I am happy with blue, maybe you can tell me if you try yellow. I think the blue is ever so slightly too stiff, but I am thinking it will break in a bit and work perfectly.

 

[shadrag]

Yeah, I'll let you know. I think I'll try yellow first (so I can get it out of hte way faster lol).

 

[sleeper3]

man that's better, the gray was hurting my eyes.

 

[sleeper3]

Yeah, I'll let you know. I think I'll try yellow first (so I can get it out of hte way faster lol).

haha yeah I had it at my desk at work and I was bored (as per usual) so I swapped it out. definitely let me know what you think.

 

[sleeper3]

I don't think anything short of a lobotomy will do.

I ran the yellow then went to blue, then red, now im back to blue it works the best for stock boost IMO.

 

[sleeper3]

what is the difference specifically though?

 

[speed3shon]

HA, wow, this thread has come a long way in the 10 min it took me to come home from work...

seriously though... nobody has called anybody this guy will believe?

i would love for one of them to chime in here.

if they say anything different than what i have been telling you, i will eat my words.

you are dumping hot air. replacing it with fresh air (introducing a restriction into the mix; the air filter) heating up said fresh air going through the turbo. cooling it down going through the intercooler.

i am dumping hot air into cool air. heating up that mixture at the turbo. and cooling it with my intercooler.

the yellow spring i found to still fall off boost
