Times are in already. Jeff your run was seriously fast... Not nearly as fast as Cy though. He's on another planet. (edit) I was looking at his PAX time...

I was wondering what you guys thought of my Boost Leak Tester so far. The upper threaded portion will be fitted with a 60psi gauge. The other of course will be the pneumatic fitting.....possibly a shraeder(spelling?) valve or some type of quick disconnect.

Sounds good man. I only said 60psi gauge because I can get one from work for free. I might just go with a 30psi gauge anyway. Whatever I can find. I'm sure 20-25psi will be good enough to find leaks. I haven't read up on boost leak testing to find out what the recommended pressure should be. I just read a story about a guy getting a boost leak test done at a shop and they blew the seals on his turbo. It was said that you can't keep high pressure in the system for very long......I'll just have to read up a little.

Another one for your viewing pleasure guys!

Between the 3 cars, the many volleyball tournaments, pool basketball, and nights out I do NOT know how I'm still functioning. I had a lot of D'OH moments going through these pics though haha

Sorry to hear about your car Grillpt!

Vibrant o2 j-pipe....looks like a 'J'.

If you could get them to give you a deal on the DBAs, I'm in.

Pete, where did you find the pics form the event. A bunch of people with huge cameras came out yesterday. I spoke to someone who was taken pics for the event, ut have no idea where it will be posted.

You mean ROLANDAS? Cool guy...I marketed APAT to him at Warminster, lol. Cy's times were crazy. I believe his fastest was when I rode along, and he messed up twice. He screamed "****" durign the third U-turn, and coming in too hot at the last turn before the end. Havin him sit with me, and then riding along took a second off my next run. Great times. I look forward to much of the same at Warminster.

looks like everyone had an interesting weekend...

That AX looked fun, Jeff you did well being only a couple seconds behind Cy who is an excellent driver. Wish I could have made it out.

Pete that suck man you sure its coming from the topend? hows the oil look, any metal flakes? I thought I messed my motor up last October @ Shenandoah but it turned out to be a missing bolt on my o2 housing. The exhaust pulses were coming threw the leak and hitting the head and it sounded like a tapping sound.

Import Junky I've got a boost leak tester if you need one.
