Don't worry Jeff, if anything ever happened I'd be able to pick and choose what I did and it would be even better

Here is what I come up with as far as the work crew and there duties

USP Mike is running the show.

David will take orders from Mike and HATE life cause there will no internet for him, and will polish bearings, develope parts, test them, and tune AEM cars.

Dan and Steve will just continue to be the whip in the garage.

Trent will just be the crazy man behind the mask, welding mad manifolds and everything else that needs fused together.

JaRRod and Nick will continue there duties, drinking starbucks I bring in for them everyday, along with shop cleaning.

vwjeff will help Dan and Steve if and when in need and will be the custom in house reflash tOOner.... until Al comes to town.

Rico your running detail

9sec9 you run camera, human resources, and send out relief packages were needed.

Mr Buschur (Dave and Dans dad) he will run parts ordering, supplies and shipping.

I think that will be all

That is either the cutest cat I've ever seen, or the ugliest. Actually, I think it just took a test ride with Dan in the Black car.

Hey 9sec9,

Can we compromise and pick Texhoma so us Texans can get in on the act?

off topic,

We need to get together sometime since your in oklahoma. We can compare "Flava Dave" (as those of us in the tuning hood know him) stories

I'm in Mckinney fairly often. Tony Paolo built OKIX's roll bar. I love going down there. Maybe a beer and dog on a friday night?

2nd round of testing is done.

What a freaking nightmare......guess I am getting old. I built the header and put the turbo just low enough that I couldn't get the oil drain line to drain very well. Which really sucked. I am going to have to make a fitting or build something next week so I can get the damn turbo to drain back to the pan. It is together, dyno'd and finished.

It came out sweet and I have to say this header/set up is the best one. I didn't change the intercooler. I was actually able to use the same lower i/c pipe. So the only change is the header/turbine housing.

The 1.06 killed the midrange quite a bit and wouldn't allow over 42 psi of boost but the peak power was back up where the original testing was done at 670 whp, torque is down to 545.

I ordered two more turbine housings today to put on this header, more testing next week.

Also be testing some intake manifolds while I'm at it.
