Glad to hear you're making progress! It sounds like it has been a true nightmare trying to get everything in place. Which oil pump were you referring to when you said you wish you upgraded it, but wasn't in your budget?

It wasnt that bad, just shops that are not really used to working on the car. That group buy they had with the backplate and gear, I forgot the name; I think it was Tony D who made it.

Hey just wanted to ask guys, what do they think about a ATI damper on a turbo charged car. I have a lighted fly wheel and a carbon fiber driveshaft and feel it might have taken out all of the damping for the drive train. Do you think not having much damping will have a impact on the longevity on my car?

It's extra insurance for your motor. It puts less stress on the crank, rods, pistons along with the oil pump as well. I will be running one on my setup. If you don't run one then just don't up the rev limiter from factory (7,500).

Unless you are installing an upgraded oil pump I wouldn't recommend running over the stock limiter either way.

I think I will get it in due time, I just have a budge atm and and close to it, thank you for the advice. I was just wondering it it was worth it, most people say it is a choice of prefrence.

I bring it up to 8000 some times, but not much. I wanted to get the upgraded oil pump and plate, but budget once again.... I'm thinking I will add these things next year.

Oh and the car should be started either today or tormmore.

Don't spin it over 7.5k.. Especially boosted.

Yup. You won't need that extra 500rpms once you strap the turbo on anyway.

I run my blower to 7,850. I don't rev it out too often though.

That's probably ok. Most of the problems I've read about are at 8k and higher.

I like high revs!!!! Maybe to much either way she's alive!!!!! And needs a tune now, hopeing to hit 600 to 620 on a dyno jet!!

No need to rev it all the way out, but rock on if that's the way you drive!

You're going to have 450-500wtq anything over 3k. It's going to move just fine.

April 6 update!

Just talked to AAM, and got so preliminary numbers before I turn up the boost; she made 515 on 11 pounds of boost on a dyno jet. I'm now aiming for 600-630 at around 18 to 20 pounds of boost. I only have a 2.5 inch exhaust exiting to a y pipe, I think that will be my biggest bottle neck. I also have cats for emissions and that egg smell! What amount of boost do you guys think it will take to hit 600? I will have a bid or two and a dyno sheet in a few days!
