Notice anything different?

Yep. Burnt out on it with all the troubles I had, Bad luck mostly & nothing to do with the turbo directly. Bad injector fried 1 motor and blown head gaskets due to trying an unproven method. While I had it down I decided to go ahead and tear it down and ditch the turbo. My crazy *** doesn't need something on my DD that I can just swap a pulley or reach over to the controller and give her some more juice. Besides, i'm glad I pulled it down because all the brgs were in the copper from the water in the oil .

 

This sucks man, I was looking forward to seeing what you could do with it. I hear ya on wanting a reliable DD though. Sometimes I wonder how far is to far with mine

 

no more turbo??

 

hey you wanna help fund my 4.8 turbo build?? i sure as hell cant get GM to do it

 

No, I need someone to help sponsor my credit card. I'll be selling the complete kit. I'll post up when I get the chance to take pics and clean it up.

 

sorry to hear about you having to ditch the fi howard..... if i have th extra i will help ya out

 

Thought you werent going to post anything about it

 

I got bored at work, nothing to read. Needed something to stir up on here.

 

I bet you have better luck this way. And somebody will get a good turbo kit to boot. You get the new parts ordered...and coming to the right address
Hopefully you won't have those kind of problems again.

 

I have rods and pistons ordered. I'll order the headers, brgs and cam tomorrow.
