Stealthy's Turbo GSR Build Up Thread

[EG-Owns you]

so whens the beast gonna be up and runing i know when i got my s**t built i couldnt wait for the damn thing to run again

 

[stealthy]

hopefully around 4 weeks, its killing me not being able to drive it. i just gotta wait for everything to get here before i can take it to the machine shop. im just gonna run around on 9:1 for about a month while i finish gathering my turbo kit....ill still be spraying during this time too

 

[EG-Owns you]

idk about that i would keep of the nitrous you need to break it in and you dont wanna put alot of wear and tear on the motor if anything wait tell the turbo is acutally on and spray it for the turbo but i would at least drive 1700 miles thats what did but i think its cuz mine was fully build most peeps only drive like 1000 miles to break in the machine shop will tell you everything

 

[stealthy]

yeah im not sure how exactly im gonna break it in yet or for how long, but im not gonna spray until after that anyways

 

[EG-Owns you]

[EG-Owns you]

oooo they break like mother f**kers, you don't know when tight is too tight or to loose, and then the stud is stripped. Those f**kers arn't cheap.
