Monticello huh, not far from Dubuque at all. When you get that bad boy running you will have to come to Dubuque and lay some smack down on some Hondas with me and the other FD in town, lol.

My FC is faster though...........

Hopefully i'll have the FD on the streets by Spring and can store the FC until winter comes again (really need another car)

This will take care of your boost control problem.

i'll use a ball/spring for the precontrol. i'm still debating on the wg control. Right now i'm not concerned with boost. I prolly will go with a ball/spring setup just to save money for something else

it's not that i don't know how to do alot of things. It's just i don't have the money for what i want to do.

This is a common problem that i have

hey buddy you can make your own ball and spring valve it cost me 10 dollars total and about 30 min to get it on the car...ran 12s that night with it. ******* worked like a charm you could see the boost go a little past 12 and then back down to 12 and then 11.5 and back to 12...I could almost imagine the ball moving back and forth in there if I wasnt going down the 1/4 mile track so fast lol

i have a link if you are interested ill find it those home depot things arent adjustable you have to turn it to the last 1/4 turn out of 8 and then every touch is 5 psi or nothing its gay

I had a really cheap mbc with an SR20 (like 5 bucks) and a turbo XS one for my FC.

After i got my speeding ticket i sold my mbc........

i wasn't really impressed with both of them (the turbo xs had nice construction though). i will think about this a bit later down the line when i get it back on the road and able to do some testing. i would like to try pills too.

but one thing i know for sure............. it will be cheap!
