Thankfully mine was the front and I already had it all out. I wouldn't imagine even trying to do it in the car, especially not on the rear.

Going to press the ball joint and put the new Hub YAY for me , I hope after this I have no vibrations :/
I bought some fancy parts for it.
July 2014 COTMWe follow the earth. The earth follows the stars. The stars know their way and though the body dies. The stars will remain, like the waves of the sea and restless slate.

I bet a lot of stories start this way...
So I was raising the boost.. on my hallman and before I was only running 18 psi. Well the instructions say to try .5 to 1 turn at a time and well, "ain't nobody got time for dat", right? So, I went 3 turns thinking that would get me to about 21.
I was giving a co-working a ride this morning and hammered it in 1st and it shot up and hit the rev limiting so hard I must've fouled a plug. It ran rough for about a minute and smoothed out.
So, at lunch I thought I better go do a 2nd gear pull to be sure the motor isn't hurt. It takes off absolutely like a bat out of hell and pulls clean. I did another run and tried to watch the boost gauge and it went up to 25 PSI and settled around 24 or so.
I checked the logs and afr's are great with no knock. I was going to go a little slower up to this much boost, but I guess I'm already there.
I hit 193 peak load on my 427AWHP virtual dyno and today hit 259 and this is only in 2nd. This turbos spool so fast it doesn't seem to make a difference, so it is great to get the tune close just using 2nd.
A rolling start in 2nd feels like a huge launch used to.

You know what I like most about the flash ecu? If your tune is solid, it doesn't really move just because you are running a lot more load. I was running mid to high 11s at 18 psi and it is the same now.
Plenum, throttlebody are in
Finally made the rear oil return clear the axle. That's a huge relief.
Now to get this downpipe to line up properly and I should be good![]()
