Well i do have a boost gauge, and i have been looking for an intercooler. I did find one out of a 740 turbo volvo but it is kinda big, i also found one out of a turbo firefly but that one looks to small. I did replace the 195 therm with a 160 therm and hooked up a 10 inch electric fan to run full time when the car is running and it is running alot cooler than before. I'm going to cut the airbox today and see what happens. I was also thinking of going with those iridium sparkplugs but would they make that much of a difference? Dj

I disconected the over boost control valve and installed a turbo boost control valve in front of the wastegate. Turned up the boost from 7lbs to 11lbs and oh what a difference, i tried it at 14lbs for a few mins but i'll need better fuel injectors to stay at that psi. The cat,resonator and small pipe is gone and in its place i put 2 1/4 inch pipe, and that also helped quite a bit. Also does anybody have a good suggestion for a muffler, i want a good one but i still want a little back presure for the turbo or does it matter. Also after i finished these mods today me and my buddy with a 86 cobra mustang had a little race on the highway and both times we raced he couldn't keep up, not bad for ea82t. The more i do the faster the little thing goes. Does anybody have any other mods that is possible for this car? more updates soon, dj
