I did... hold on, that looks scary given the time table of the post. I'm going to PM the guy and see what happened.

He said the turbo didn't cause it. He had detonation due to another issue.

Yes guys , it was not the turbo that caused the boomboom. :tup:

Well I'm planning on doing a Full review on my motor they are building soon enough. I only hope I don't have issues down the road but time will tell. So far the communication with bobby has been pretty good.

I personally don't like the design of the VSR turbo kit, but its a proven kit, I'm just weary of having an intake pipe so close to the turbine like that.

Not to mention it's sits right next to the fuel lines, etc.... I hope they have their dyno fixed, they were posting some outrageous numbers on stock motors w/ their top mount kit a few years back when it was S&R trying to impress.

But as usual single turbo > twins ;)

How do you know it was bad fuel?

AdobePhil 02-24-2014 09:32 AM

Well in any case I just dropped off the Zenophobe at VSR. Should be done by Thursday night. Cosmogirl. .. Bobby said that he would have to dig out your motor to take pics... but also said noting has changed as far as the outward appearance so your pictures should still be accurate.

Could anyone elaborate on the missing wideband? I thought the Z came stock with widebands.

Thanks

Turbo Install is done today. Stay tuned for dyno numbers later this evening.
