Haha it was sensory overload when I first started. I'm surprised there's not that many car accidents out here. Granted I've seen a decent amount, but it should be more with how they drive!
My job allows me to experience a lot of other countries. The Southeast Asian countries are ranked towards the top as pretty crazy to drive in. I made this fun video today, check it out!!:thumbsup:

Spun # 5 rod + 2 mains were starved of oil. I shut mine off immediately and barely ran it after having the issue. My block needed to have the mains line bored, but I got lucky and have a spare block now.(Ito in my storage shed waiting on a rainy day/possibly sell). Also, I had my crankshaft...
Sorry to hear about your motor. Mine spun #5 rod bearing back in March. Basically same thing, just not at the track. I had changed the oil (Mobil 1 5w20 like I had always been using), took it out a couple days later, pulled onto the highway and that was that. I ended up getting a new block and...
my back up camera intermittently stops working also. I took it in once and of course it started working and they 'couldn't recreate the problem'. It's since done it a few more times, so I've just stopped using it all together. I only have the base model, so the screen isn't that big for me to...
damn that thing took off like a rocket, nice time! I've yet to master the launch on 20" tires even though I have Mickey Thompson DR's. I think I need to drop the PSI a little. I've had it around 18psi or so but spin a little bit still

You have to delete the 's' from "https" from the actual youtube page link and it will show up like this.
Sick vids guys! I can't wait to get home and get behind the wheel of my car again!
Attached is a video of the different exhaust setups I've had and my thoughts on them. I hope this video can help anyone out there torn between a couple different setups.

Quick video to commemorate my favorite time of the year. Unfortunately I'm still overseas so I'm not able to enjoy it. Lets see some boosted coyote vids! I know theres some bad cars out there and I want to live vicariously through you all. :cheers:
if you've got the 3.6" I would advise against going back to stock. Granted it will work and isn't loud at all, my setup has compressor surge with the stock bov. it flutters like hell when I let off the gas and I can hear it coming out of the intake. I've read that the stock bov is only rated up...
The end result was "oil starvation", however, OPG was intact. The machine shop said that in some cars the pressure on the top of the piston will push the oil out of the sides of the rods and cause the bearing to stick to the crank and rotate. #5 Rod bearing spun and grooved the crank a little...
I'm still on stock MT82 and it hasn't had an issue yet. I have a Mcleod RXT and Flywheel, but the stock clutch was still going when I swapped it.
And yeah, I'm going to say with headers back + CAI/Tune you'd maybe be looking at about 485 crank hp based off how my car did when I had only...
+1 for Solo Performance. I have the Mach Thunder. The quality from Solo Performance is Amazing. Pristine out of the package. The way the system was packaged for shipping, it probably could've survived a nuke being dropped on it. Zero drone inside the cabin. Their systems are top notch, and...
