what worries me is I can't seem to find any replacements for the rear of a turbo. any suggestions?

I was trying different things at an autocross and I thought since it was wet I could try the diff lock.... I couldn't even make the turn to stage. Now I have an intermittent click from the left rear... Lesson learned.

I'll go look for one this weekend I hope I can find one that will fit in front of the air box. While I'm there I will look to see if the Loyale they have still has a complete airbox. I want to see what an unmodified airbox looks like.

I do have some wiring to do I will admit that

Intercooler sprayer is on and working

fixed

here is a short video of my RX exhaust

the roof scoop? its just a stick on scoop and it doesn't do anything other than ruin aerodynamics. In fact I'm removing it.

I started the install of my intercooler and with the bracket to keep it solid I need to cut the pipes to hook it up and add the fittings to hook up IAC and BOV

installed the boost controller YAY 11psi and no cut wooohoo!!!!!!

I just installed the boost control and I had it adjusted wrong but wow 25 psi is strong!!!!! I backed it off to 11psi

only one problem I am staying with the 4 lug so........

I think intercooler is going to be first then more boost finally a TD04.

I took the car to an autocross tonight I placed 6th in raw time over all and was 2nd fastest for several hours. the fastest car tonight ran a 28.3 second run I ran a 29.7. For the first half of the event the fastest car was 28.7 and no one was any closer than my time. This is quite literally the first time I have driven this car in anger and WOW it's quick.

when you look at the engine it is the aluminum part that says turbo on it. On my car it was the connection at the turbo that was loose.

oh I plan to I can tell you it has helped throttle response a bit and the boost is now 9psi without adding in the controller.

Installed the nice 2.5 in exhaust

JWX has another white RX with adjustable camber plates and many other mods the hood scoop appears to me to be a stick on aftermarket piece that has had the adhesive die. I will be replacing it and perhaps the whole hood so I can relocate the opening for the scoop slightly.

double check your belt install there is a process that is easy to mess up.

I wonder what a set of mpfi pistons would do for the EA81 after all the EA82 MPFI has 9+:1 compression. it would have to help hill climb power.

check the connections on your plenum. if they come lose they will look fine till you hit boost then bleff no power till you get out of it. I found out this afternoon what that is like. I would hit 5 psi and suddenly no power. Opened the hood everything looked fine till I started wiggling things. so give that a look.

here is the car this is the TWE down pipe today I replaced this with this For those who want to see my camber plates here they are as you can clearly see they are not adjustable
