I got my Evo back yesterday!

The dumbasses at the shop decided it would be smart to put in 87 octane

Oooooo I was so pissed...Had to hit up Alan to get the name of a place where I could buy some race gas

 

Congrats! Sorry to hear about the shop putting in the wrong gas. If anything bad happens to your motor I'd file a claim against them.

 

Coming on up!
lol, smart ***

Here he is taking a nap after we took him on a nice walk to pick up the kids from school:

 

niice

wait till they get bigger... they will wanna play fight with you....

 

Thanks d00d.

I was very careful NOT to boost after I realized the wrong gas was put in. I immediately went and put in some MS109 as well.

Alan said I should be golden, but can anyone tell me of anything I should be looking out for or something that would tell me if anything is going wrong as a result of their ignorance

 

i cant speak as i dont drive an evo, but i did somthin similar with my old car by accident.. i put in 87 octaine in my 94 probe gt ( non-turbo, it was a bone stock klde motor ) when i should of put in 91 .. i noticed that the motor started to knock/ act weird cause of the weird change in fuel.. i guess the mazda motor was trying to adjust.. but the car drove on fine untill the next fuel stop as i put in 81 octain at that point on

i say keep an eye on the evo and watch / listen for any weird sounds..

 

Brian, you going to Reese?

 

Anybody interested in buying a Garrett GT3567R turbo? Has less than 1000 miles on it.

 

Brian: Are you still interested in buying my PTE 880cc injectors? I am purchasing some RC 1000cc injectors on Monday, and am going to have James install them next Saturday.

 

What flange is on there? T3? If so, how much?

 

T3 flange. It is the turbo off my S2000. I don't have any pics at this time, but can take some. The hot-side of the turbo is currently separated (was going to send it to Swain). The compressor housing was polished, and there was a 90 degree elbow welded on (by Tim at Speed Force Racing). This elbow allows you to use a straight coupler instead of an elbow coupler which is known to come loose under high boost conditions.

I am looking to get $1385 for the turbo new (purchased from Full-Race). I believe $900 would be a fair price for it.

 

Oh....if it had the original compressor housing I would be down since I can replace my turbo with any T3 turbo....have any pics to see if I can make this work on my car somehow?

 

Here are some pics:







Please let me know if you want to buy this ASAP. You have first dibs. I am sure I could sell it in less than 24 hours on S2Ki.

 

Wont work for me The outlet on the turbo is facing the wrong way and my DP wont bolt up to it....GL on the sale!

 

No prob. I just put her up for sale elsewhere. BTW...I am scheduled to have some work done next Saturday at Reese Tuning. Are you going to be involved in any of the work?
