It ran 205hp on a dynojet before the old rings and headgasket went. I am installing an intercooler and VAFC this weekend, then I have to wait for the total seal rings to seat before I can wail it on a dyno again. I'll also be pushing the boost up from 5psi to 10psi once intercooled with lowered compression. I'm hoping for around 240hp.

Also I'm thinking about trying one of those new Nitrous Xpress N'ter coolers. You can run C02 instead of nitrous for a cooler intake temp. I don't really want to run nitrous and this seems like a good alternative to keeping the intake temperatures down and turning boost up higher safely.

I am also going to order a new manifold and larger turbo since the stock greddy turbo is only adjustable to around 10psi. It has an internal wastegate and isn't really reliable above that boost setting.

Thanks, I'm just crying inside right now. Driving around wanting to mash the gas and spool the turbo, but can't. Gotta wait for the new rings to break in.
