Popped a seal man!

I think something was damaged after my first night tuning 20psi. I had a couple of pulls that were in the 9.5AFR range, it ran through them smooth......but after that night there was a slight miss in the car that I couldn't fix - tried new plugs and alot of little checks. Then it just let go one night during a pull. I used up 75% of its life getting it tuned me thinks.

That engine has been through alot of crap though. Within the first 5 minutes of running it she saw 15psi on the GT35.....then the whole me tuning the old EMS.......the blown fuel pump fuse at 18psi/5500RPM.....then more tuning on a new EMS......then problems tuning on that EMS.......then 7000kms of highway driving.....then more tuning.......

And I had the water off. Turned it off for tuning and forgot to put it back on

That'll do it. Sorry to hear but at least now you'll expedite that NRS engine And also you should be all ready to tune the girl.

Yea it's hard to tell. I listened to the weather tonight. One day it's suppose to be sunny, the next day rain, then sun again the next. This week is just a mixed bag as far as the weather goes.

I just looked at the forecast. It said mix of sun and cloud with a 30 percent chance of showers. Those odds sound good to me.

Count me in. I need to meet some of you guys and get over shyness issues. As well as idea for the small fixes on my FC. And as its a 15 minute drive, I can't blame distance if I fail to make it.
