    Rebuild turbo myself or send it somewhere? Or is it junk?

    Been reading you gain nothing out of sending your turbo for someone else to rebuild it. True? I have a Super B Special that I broke the shaft on. The Compressor wheel got into the housing a bit. But I don't think it should be an issue. I bought a Silver Bullet to replace it and the Special has...

    Wheel chocks on the front of the dyno.......

    Well from my vantage point safely off to the side it didn't move a whole lot, but I will have a giant slice of no thanks on this stupidity. Took the pic after the runs were done. Sketchy.....

    Beam repair on a 4 post lift. ? for the engineers/guys who know stuff about things!

    I'm going to be repairing/modifying a beam on a four post lift. This lift is used to do alignments and has been replaced once already to factory spec. It has since drooped again in the middle which screws with the alignment equipment. It is a 10' span of 5"x3"x.25"wall rectangular tube. The...

    Performax Air Pressure gauge question

    Hey Michael I have 5 Isspro performax gauges one being an air pressure gauge. I was wondering if there was a way I could get 2 more air pressure senders and use a 3 position toggle switch to monitor the overall air in my system and the air in each long travel airbag with the same gauge. Is this...

    Anybody ever add a support for the transfercase?

    I was building a mount for some long travel airbags which required me to move the vent/brake line block on the rear axle. I bent up new lines and after bleeding the brakes I had the rear elevated on jack stands. I was checking to make sure the brakes felt good and I noticed just how much jarring...

    Seen it done both ways, turn the rotors of leave them alone?

    So what's your experience with turning rotors? I just bought some new EBC sport rotors and yellowstuff pads for the front and the cheapie OE replacement type for the rear (ultimax). I was planning on turning the rears before putting the pads on. But as I was reading up on what people like as far...

    Switch from 33% to 50% methanol or try to adjust the amount of fluid I'm injecting?

    Who uses 50/50 water meth? I have seen enough posts that lead me to believe 50% is going to make good power, is still relatively safe and may still add some cooling to the mix. When I first started this I had a cheap hobbs switch coming on at 30-35psi. Guys were telling me I wasn't getting the...

    Do any of you know what the bittering agent is or if all windshield washer fluids have them? I was looking for some -20 called a place today and the guy I was talking to threw me off when he said "yeah I got it, but this stuff has a bittering agent". WTF :what: Looks like a while back it was...

    Going to try my hand at water and methanol injection

    I've been searching this topic on and off for a year or 2, but I got more serious about it in the last few months. I'm going to pick up some parts or a kit next week, but I still have a few questions. I have called around and talked to a few vendor's Devil's Own, Cooling Mist and AIS. They all...
