Well guys, wow, what a day, lol. Out of all of the emanage ultimate's sent out of course I get a defective one, lol. So, Charles is getting me a new one and we're putting it on and tuning Saturday. The 550's and 14 psi pulley are on. The car is running like total crap as you can imagine. Also we've decided that I'm going to have to tighten this bov and if that doesn't work recirculate it or get a new bpv. So for all of you guys wanting a bov make sure that you recirculate it, it just won't work well otherwise. Also we're not sure that I lost 3 psi of boost because of the intercooler. First off the belt was slipping very badly and secondly my boost gauge seems to be broken and won't go above 9.5psi (thanks ebay). So that's the situation guys, I know you all were excited as was I but it just wasn't meant to be today, but you better believe Saturday is the day.

It says NST 12 PSI pulley in his sig. So I assume NST made it.
Man, this is starting to get all to common...Long threads leading to a climactic moment, and then something goes wrong or something falls through. I hope we don't have some sort of "CURSE of THE SCION" spreading around...
**EDIT**damn you guys type fast.

I dont think i could use that much drag racing all the time!!!
good luck with the boost guage, and e-manage....that A/F seems safe enough , unless its gone...
good luck KY...hope to follow in the footsteps one day...

The really bad part is, had I thought about it, I could have pulled the ultimate out of my car and put it on his. I didnt even think about it until last night when I got home. These 12 and 14 hour days are fying my brain I tell you. lol

Well I wish you guys the best of luck on Sat. I know we all want to see what this beast can do. What alot of people don't understand is that delay's and hiccups are all apart of tunning, I think alot of us have had to learn the hard way about this. I agree with Travis, it seems there is a curse if you start a thread for a project, somthing always makes it go to a climactic peak.. I know when I do my engine and tranny rebuild, im not posting anything until it is done..
But once again best of luck Ethan and Charles for Sat.
