11.00:1 AFR is a little rich but not "pig" rich. I know turbo and sc tunes are different but at WOT and under boost AFRs should be close to what you are seeing, shouldn't they? I am at 11.5 at WOT at 9lbs.

Yeah, I looked at it a bit closer a couple days ago and saw that it wasn't as bad as I thought. The dips in the AFR corrospond with the dips in power. But it looks closer to 12. I'd prefer 12.6-12.8 with meth going, IDK. Thanks for the reply back.

If it's around 12 I would be happy with that. Remember the leaner you are the more danger you possibly and eventually will run into. Of course you already know that

Thinking of selling my CS V2 fenders. Wife doesn't care for them.

I noticed when in hauling a$$, I can smell rubber, not coming from the tires. I'm thinking it's the belts. Anyone else notivce that before? Also one of my pulleys look slightly tweaked, gonna double check when I get a chance and snap a pic.

I love the V2 fenders. I'd keep em! (I like the look of the RS1 Vented Fenders a bit more though )

Well, one of my belts is shredding and I believe it's from that tweaked pulley. Will post pics in a few








And the pulley failed and belt is off. Car still drives normally at low speed luckily, I didn't hear the belt break or the pulley fail, it just did. I was only a couple miles from home when it happened so no big deal. Just a lot of rubber in my engine bay i need to clean now.

Update: Sam called me and told me he's going to send a transport vehicle to bring it back to GTM and see what's going on. This is a big relief and I'm definitely happy to hear they are going to take care of things. I'm still 100% happy with everything, and I'm sure it will be fixed. Got burned by the mod fire, but thankfully, not catastrophic.

Also, to answer Sgt Goldy's question below, no update on when I will get her back. I'm hoping by the 23rd. That's when I'll be back home again.

That one is pretty easy to get at - looks like it just got loose which put it off kilter and then it just went downhill from there.

I had one of the main drive belt idlers seize up but caught it in time - had to put another washer behind it to get it running freely - but you have to drop the rad fan to get at it - not fun.

Is that a stock rad fan? Looks quite different from mine.

Also - did GTM put on some sort of bracket to hold up the coolant reservoir?

I had to take a torch to the reservoir - heat it up and push in the corner / edge that would otherwise have been in contact with the pulley that you had fail.

Cheers

Thanks for the info. The radiator and fans are upgraded. I'm sure you know, it's tight in there. I'm hoping they find a flaw in design if there is one and fix it before more of them go out to other customers. I am impressed by how quickly GTM called and made contact and by the end of the day confoirmed a transport. Not sure about the coolant reservoir, it still like in the stock location. The pulley wasnt touching anything except maybe the adapter plate on the block.

Edit 11/12/2013: Car was taken today on the transport vehicle. That's about the only good news I got. Found out my automatic CC payments are paying some other @ss hats accounts. So I have to do three notaries from my bank to get the money refunded and the bank charges me $29 for each account to stop any future payments. I'm going to the bar and eye rape some Twin Peaks servers.

Edit 11/13/2013: Car received by GTM. They called because I only gave them the fob and no key. I guess everyone gives them fob and key. Pablo also told me to call and bother them every day till I get it back lol.

Edit 11/13/2013: Sooo... NST is offering own size pulleys in their group buy. I threw myself on that list. I've been asking for the better part of 6 months lol. I love the throttle response they give and the car revs up and down so much quicker with them compared to stock. Combined with a lightweight flywheel, I'm hoping for even faster rpm response. No clue what color I want. I know GTM doesn't care for them, but I had no issues from my last set before they were removed. Not only that but I've read somewhere supercbargers help with resonant frequencies. Not sure how true, but again, I've never had any issues.

Edit 11/15/2013: GTM called and confirmed pulley failure. They are now trying to figure out if it was an isolated issue with that pulley, if there is a flaw in all of those pulleys, if it was the bolt that holds the pulley in the adapter, if it was an install issue, etc. The could have just fixed it and sent it back, but ghey would rather it not happen again and it come back to them. I agree. So I'll he checking back next week to see what's up.
