Well, after a few dissapointing losses last weekend, I finally rigged up my 4$ FCD, and cranked up the boost to ~15psi. So far, no problems whatsoever, A/F shows green, no knocking, and the car pulls a lot harder....

We'll see how it does this weekend....
intercooled engine...

What IC are you running and how easily did it adapt to you engine (I assume it`s a top mount :!) Any info at all would be greatly appreciated. I`ll look forward to your response---Rod (the NA killer

You were having problems beating cars with a full exhaust and 13 psi of boost? What kind of cars are you racing?
Mark,

Its the Saab 900 IC, it fits right in on my auto, but I think the clutch MC might be in the way on a manual. The turbo/ic piping is a combination of exhaust parts and trimmed radiator hoses, and i had to trim about a 1/4" off the IC/TB side. Overall it was a pretty easy fit.

It's actually a long story where I got my tranny rebuilt and they completely messed up my AWD, so its just FWD right now

And it's not full exhaust, just no 2nd cat or muffler...

Yeah, It's cool at first, but gets a little irritating when you can't accelerate from a stop without roastin' em...
