Found a small coolant leak and realized my brand new (been installed for 50 miles) evo oil caps is leaking.

Not to hate but you're happy with that? Looks like a 15g pull.
What are you missing? Will the timing bring in an extra 100+ hp on pump?

Of course I'm happy it's driving after being down for 2years and one year of building. BTW, 15gs don't pull to 8k and won't make power at 30+ psi. "Not to hate"...but enjoy your 9bs. Car is driving; that's the point and that's what I did with my 3S today.

1992 Kilder Green VR4 - First 4G swap in a 3S. 2.0, auto, awd. 9.65 at 143mph. Now LS swapped. 8.52 at 162.

I wasn't hating I was asking. You weren't even to 20 psi so thats why I said it looks like a 15g pull. I know those turbo can do 700+ so a pull with half potential showing, I asked if you were happy. Thanks for your belittling reply....
Also your log only shows to 7k.
I should have started with, " not to sound like a hater".
Gj on getting the car running well. Props for keeping at the project, have seen so many just parted it out due to setbacks
From the phone.
I don't know where to start. But what he's missing is a melted piston, or rod through the block. You don't just jump in a fresh 700hp build and set it to kill.
I'd be happy my car is sorted enough to drive, and making 400 whp on wastegate boost, and probably single digit timing at peak torque.
So many people have no idea how long it takes to get everything sorted out, and a from scratch tune done on a high hp car, without blowing up the car.
I apologize for my reply then. Seems obvious to me that someone wouldn't put in a part list like mine to be "happy" with 400hp so I took your post as condescending.
To answer...yes, happy it's driving. No, not done yet. Chart only shows 6600rpm. I took it up to 8k on next pull but it was in 2nd gear so virtual dyno doesn't work (only 3rd or 4th gear).

Well it's pump E85I'm sure these turbos would do 500 on pump though since 16gs do.
Keeping on thread topic...also waxed it today.
I raced it.
