not to sound stupid but what is the Vortec FMU. I never heard of it and am curious how you are running 8 pounds of boost with out having the engine blow up

Yup as soon as i get some spare cash

The Vortech FMU(fuel management unit) is included in spools kit. I am running an ic with my kit, its ok at that level with what i have. I turned the boost down today to 6psi. I'm using a 16g turbo not the garret t3/t4. I try not to drag the car at every stop. When im at high speeds i get into boost for no more than 10sec and i'm constantly watching my boost gauge.

where's your dump pipe (the shorty pipe off of the wastegate)? Hot exhaust gases comming out of the wastegate will melt plastic around the radiator; not to mention, raise underhood temps.

How do you like the HKS SS? I really like the design and sound.

This one i think is both. I had the 52k first but they were to bright can't remember the lumens but they had a really bad glare. This one is not as bright but bright and looks good to.

believe or not it's not angle at the radiator its hitting the heat sheild in the top of the hood. Most of the time i shift before the wastegate opens. Hood temps is gonna be greater anyway cuz the mani does'nt have a heat sheild.

I love the sound of this bov, this was the first thing i bought 6 months before i bought the turbo
