    No you can run a BOV. But if you run the VAM before the turbo like it is from the factory there are usually some drivability issues. Rich spikes between shifts, engine shutting down after boosting, and possible idle issues. Now if you run the VAM as a blow through you can avoid all these...

    Little get together today.

    Actually, even though the rim size is larger overall wheel/tire diameter probably didnt change much. Also a buddy of mine had a Calypso 93 with those same wheels and it didnt sit that high, but I digress. Dave, my coupe is actually white but with a quick look while driving by on a gloomy...

    Oh thats cool. I just saw your intake to the turbo pointing to the ground and thought you might be going a different direction, maybe MAF or something. I wouldnt mind doing the MAF thing just so I could run a BOV without issue but the little car runs so damn good with the VAM Im afraid to mess...

    Little get together today.

    Well if you guys went through Conway to get to LaConner y'all drove right by my house. But no matter, I was in sunny So-cal anyway. Btw Dave, I wasnt going to say anything at your new cars debute but sitting next to those other Saleens I just cant help myself. Dont get me wrong it looks...

    What do you do with a turbo mustang on your first dry day in 2 weeks?....

    Oh yea, I guess I missed that. Yea your gonna need to get the stock MAF electronics with a C&L. Just because the Pro-M elect. is calibrated for the same size injectors doesnt mean its calibrated for the same flow of the meter or restriction of the sample tube for that size injector. And I must...

    That is true but he said he had it at stock timing with the spout out and it wouldnt run very good that way. I wasnt sure what the exact symptoms were and that was something that was obviously wrong. Matt it really sounds to me like your fighting a meter issue. How does it idle, whats the...

    Sounds like you have a fair amount more flow than I have. Out of curiousity is your exhaust housing a V-band? Matt if your spout is out you must run whatever you want your total timing to be because you no longer have the ECU controlling your advance. Im not sure thats your issue but with...

    Matt, your meter MUST be calibrated for your 42s for it to run decent. With a good calibrated meter and stockish fuel pressure your car "should" run pretty close to like stock. BTW, didnt you get a BTM? 86turbo, the .96 is the one thats on my car right now and as far as exact numbers I dont...

    3100 lbs may not be super light but it is a fair amount lighter than my race weight. Last time I weighed my car it was 3320 with a half tank or so of gas without me in it and I weigh about 225. At the moment Im running a .96 AR hotside. I dynoed the car when I had the 5 speed in it with a .68...

    Yea if thats the MP T70 your talking about I have the same turbo. To be honest Ive never really tried running much lower than 12psi and my best to date is a 10.8 as well. I guess my car must be really heavy or something.:shrug: I do know I have a really tight converter and that leaves a...

    It's official: I have the best wife EVER!!!

    Wow Dave that is awesome!!! A buddy of mine had to give up his 93 Calypso Green Saleen because of his wife (now ex-wife) and you go and end up getting one from yours. Funny how things work. That is one beautiful car though, I much coveted my friends car as Im sure I will yours.
