i just installed the SOHC kit in my 99 ex and i have a couple questions:
1.is there a break in period??if so, how long should i take it easy?? ivve been shifting at the highest maybe 4-4.5 rpm, is that ok?
2.if any oil leaks should pop up would i see it already??ive been driving it around for 20-30 min straight and no leaks...
3.i have an hks ssq bov and i hear a light blow off sound at 2-2.5 rpm, is that normal? does the greddy 15g kit really spool that fast?
4.when do i reach full boost on my setup??i dont have a boost gauge yet so i just wanna know...
5.if the blue box is blinking green does that mean its workin? or is it supposed to be a steady green light?

thanks a lot for your help...

1. is this used or new? i'm pretty sure there isnt a "break-in" period, considering the turbo spools at crazy amounts of RPM's...but just take it easy for a while and keep shifting around that same area...
2. it depends on the oil leak...my oil feed that goes into the turbo was loose and A LOT of oil was coming out...but sometimes, you can see oil coming from the oilpan
3. not sure if thats normal or not on the hks, but on my dsm bov, it does the same thing...thats around the time my turbo spools up
4. i reach full boost around 4k, give or take a little...PLEASE get a gauge soon
5. not sure on the blue box, i'm running the AFC hack with dsm 450's

Hope this helps a little, and if someone else wants to correct me, please feel free

Like someone on here said..."Welcome to the most addicting thing in life...BOOST!"
