Well i put some new 4point spark plugs in it. Still seems the same. So i think the cam mite be out a tooth or some thing. will have 2 have a look at it. I replaced the rad hose as well.

So i still have 2 bleed the front brakes. Spray the cooler piping and hook up the actuator and bov. Bov not 2 important. Then go for a Wof.

So now im saving for a front lip. I'll be in oz in july so i'll pick it up then and i wont coilovers and some sort of afm ecu. Then after that its put another engine in. But that wont happen for ages. I gotta forge the one in the garage and make a new custom intake up for it first.

I might have missed something but did you know that there is a secondary pressure relief valve on the E15t? I think it's set at about 9-10psi. It's the little can like thing next slightly behind and to the left of the throttle body.

I think the problem you're experiencing is known as a gate of waste or a "wastegate". However the troublesome beast can be somewhat controlled with equipment known as a "boost controller".
so if ya bought a microtech LT8 it would come with all the wires you would need, then just rip out the AFM metal box thingo, and all the wires near it, and plug in the new microtech ones.
No not really. Its a very demanding and difficult wiring job that you should probably think 23 or 24 more times about before layin out any cash.

yeah, but angel said his one had all the plugs, ready to go, wiring loom all set up, so that should be easy to set up! and with such a friendly community behind me at N12turbo.com, how can i go wrong, besides if all else fails, couldn't i take it to an auto electrician, or work shop and ask em to hook it up.?
