What turbo kit?

Just remove the WG actuator if it's internall, or remove the spring if external WG.

Do not hook up the intercooler piping and it is impossible for the engine to see boost. The turbo can still be connected to the DP and the manifold though.

Of course you CAN'T do this. You will over rev the turbo. Just take the spring out or drive slow. NO probs....its what I am doing now (driving slow) until next week when I get tuned.

I had my turbo hooked up the whole time... 2200 miles later, it's fine...

I just drove it like grandma for the first 200 miles or so, and NEVER drove it when on my way to work or anything where I'd be tempted or angered into getting on it. Just a weekend cruizer.

I started to let it see a little boost... only 3-4 pounds up until 750 miles, never a full run kept it below 4000 rpm, and from 1000 miles up, I've treated it like a scalded dog.

I love boost!

Well actually here is the real situation, I sold my stock Header and now my aftermarket header and the car is sitting for now waiting for the kit. I had to sell the header and some other **** to get the money for the kit. But the car blows oil and I am just wondering, A. How much if anyboost could I run, Or can I just get it to bypass and just run no boost. I am getting another Block To build up and want to just run this one till she gets done.

My Greddy kit said there was a 500 mile break in period. I just drove it easy with no heavy spools for that time.

Eat a bag of dicks, you mouth breathing, window licking, insignificant little fuckstain. There's a rules sticky. You need to go read it. There's an FAQ sticky. You need to go read it. You know what you don't need to do? **** up our ******* forums by bumping a 13 year old mother ******* thread.

Read more, type less, or kick rocks.

Don't bump a thread that is over a decade old for a random question. Make a new thread or if you can't make a thread due to being a trial member then go post your question in the FI random chat thread.

Also don't talk to other members like that, if you had read the rules when you created your account then you would know bumping old threads like this is frowned upon, so of course they are going to call you on it.

Consider this your warning... Talk **** like that again to a member and I'll ban you.

Now go ask your own question where I told you to
