mine's missing from the back =)

...but i'm psyched! more details later but i have some immediate q's for now...

1. fwiw i know the stock boost gauge isn't all that accurate, but it seems to be responding fairly well. the z boosts a tick under the max 14psi on the stock gauge. is this around 12psi? it has an intake, jwt chip, but stock exhaust. boost controller needed to up this? or modify the boost jets?

2. hiss/whistle noise: search points to 3 things- boost leak, vacuum leak, or dying turbos. i really hope it's not the third. the sound starts off as a whistle with a touch of a throttle and i hear a gush of hissing air as i continue to pull the throttle cable. i'm hoping it could be that vacuum hose i posted yesterday. but i'm having a hard time locating it cuz the sound seems like its jumping around! its really deceptive. btw, the z doesn't smoke upon acceleration or deceleration. just a bit at idle, but that could be condensation.

anyways, i'm really psyched! finally got one after 7 years of NA ownership. kinda sad to switch over tho. i really loved my gold z.
let the fun, pain, and addiction begin! pics to come shortly =)

Best of TaeKwonDo
