Thats the plan Nate. I didn't want to decide on an ignition upgrade till I get the fuel in line. I got to drive it again. This time the wg linkage stayed together for me. I found out that the wg is craking at around 5psi, so thats max boost till I can get it to the dyno. Funny thing happened though on my test drive. I went to a bar to pick up a six pack. Everything was fine on the way there. I made about 6 to 8 lower RPM boost runs. I could definately feel more power and grinnin ear to ear. I came back out to the car and it had a hard time starting, but it finaly did. I took off and didn't get too far before it just died on me. I tried to start it a couple of times and noticed that after the pump turned off that the fuel pressure just died off immediatly. I got out and there was a pool of gas under the car. I pushed it aside and had to get towed home. Kind of a bummer, but I'm not all to down about it. I'm pretty sure I need a more stable bracket for the secondary rail. Right now its only bolted to one point on the manifold. I think the bracket was strong enough to use N/A because the intake was always sucking on the injectors. Now that its pushing out on them, it kind of isn't working so well. I have a plan to fix it. It shouldn't be too complicated or take too long to do. I'm still excited about it working though. I really got a better listen to how the turbo and BOV are working...and you can definately tell that its running a turbo. The turbo whines loudly when it spools up. It doesn't sound abnormal or anything. Maybe its because I don't have an air filter? I can see why you'd want to stab the guy with the RFL. I like loud though - thats just me. It sounds good to me, its a definatel PSHHH - just like releasing an air compressor hose. The one other thing that I noticed, and kind of expected, was that the exhaust is much much more tame. I might have to take one of my mufflers off. The most important thing to me is that the car is definately faster. I have to get the bugs worked out of this fuel rail soon. I kind of need the car. I'll probably have something together by tonight. 95 Eclipse RS : 5 speed 15.7 @ 87.9mph Jeep TB writeup - http://www.dimensia.com:81/jimbo/JeepTBfor2gnt.html



ouch, sucks about the tow. Im not running a filter yet either and it spools quite loud.

Is there any BOV that will whistle at low boost, instead of the angry exhale sound?
