I'm at Montreal now waiting for the connection. HalifaxFD, how do I know who you are or will u be driving the 7 which makes it easy lol.

And what were u doing to pop the apex seal lol. Usually u don't boost until u get tuned :p. But on a serious note, if you guys have a garage, I'm more then willing to do a quickie rebuild with a few all nighters .

Just was my own stupidity overall. Car was cold. Running up to the store before it closed. Never really beat on it. But it's all it took.
I am running pfc with datalogit and lc-1 but it happened to fast.
I'm not sure what it was exactly that let go but def a seal by my experience. I have a housing but no more rotors kicking around if its not good. Also I Have some apex seals in good shape. Just concerned about the rotor mostly.
Gonna rip it out tonight. But I can't say ill be in for the dyno session now.

10am is probably about the right time. The boys were at it until about 3am last night. John (HalifaxFD) just crashed on my couch after he dropped Marco off. They are just waking up now and heading over as soon as they are functional.

You know I bet he could have got even more Hp if his upper intake wasn't sticking up so high


What kind of turbo does Halifax have on it?

Scratch that. He has a turbo right under his name lol. Mustang dyno are stingy so don't get caught up in what they spit out. That is around the same numbers I got when I had a 35r.
