If my car were done this weekend I would For Sure be down for something. Next week looks promising tho. Suspension has shipped finally from the rebuild center and should be in the shop by mon-tues and its a couple days for them to get everything all situated before I can get it back. :fingers-crossed:

Good to hear!!

I am waiting on my new BOV. It should be here by the middle of next week.

Has anyone called Renner Petroleum and bugged them about E85? If you do mention that you want it in Fortuna as well Word is Eureka, Arcata and McClanlyville are getting hooked up, along with Willow Creek and Garberville

I talked to them. Its all tied up in a permitting process. They said if it takes much longer they will just jump ship......so probably not happening.

I keep hearing different things from them. The main dude (I always forget his name) always breaks it down, but his flunkies always give me some BS answer. Never the less I hope that is not true. I know they have been going through the permit process for almost a year, but that would completely suck if they gave up.

^ E85 is our Friend. If I remember Ill give renners office a call, here in CC. But I think its kinda doubtful since I and a couple others may be the only ones to know about E85 or that have asked about it.

Abooth- what bov are you getting?

I am getting a Tial Q. My Standard Tial was making a bunch of noise, but I am now thinking that it had a spring that was too stiff.

Ya unless you are running more than 21-22 psi there is no need for anything but the stock BPV. Hell even then you can do the mod that will let you run higher boost without it leaking...

My FMIC was setup for and included the Tial when I bought it. And I plan on running around 27-28 psi once I get this thing runnin 100% or E95 shows up

With a complement like that how could I refuse?!

When I say it is not running 100% I mean that it still leaks oil like a sieve...but I think it just needs some new passenger side valve cover gaskets.

Yea I wasnt sure how much psi you were running yet with the gt35. I am running 22psi on an upgraded AVO wastegate.
