Looks like Doran is going to start selling their own then. Trying to picture how that would fit and I'm not seeing it.

Its at the end of the header. It is what joins all the individual runners into one pipe that then goes to the cats/CBE

And Khoi is right. I don't see her issue being boost related at all. SC's are pretty static.

Ideas to why she might be dumping oil then?

Would I be hated for saying "because its a Pontiac?" lol because it is a Pontiac.

Just kidding

I LOVE the G8's.

But im not really sure. Not familiar with LS platforms. Not as familiar as I like to be because they are generally pretty BA.

dmhenderson · 07-01-2013, 02:43 PM

Also just because the SC ran consistent boost, it could have been too high from the jump.

Sales@AAMComp · 07-01-2013, 02:45 PM

probably just a bad oil leak somewhere, her exhaust would shoot black smoke if it burnt that much oil lol

Or an oil line for the SC fell off or split? Oil cooler connection failed? Could be any number of things. Most LS motors can handle an easy 6psi or 140whp jump on a bone stock drivetrain.

That's pretty sturdy. Go figure

You could also try Nissan of Bowie, where we had a meet once.

I'll have to give those a look... Gotta find out if it's even possible to reprogram the TPMS system separate of a full ECU reprogram, and if that will affect my UpRev or not?

Sales@AAMComp · 07-02-2013, 09:23 AM

not too caught up in the convo, but we use Criswell of Gaithersburg or Germantown as our main Nissan dealership

dmhenderson · 07-02-2013, 09:29 AM

Criswell Germantown has been very good to me. When I bought the 2012, their service manager was a guy named Bob who put up with endless electrical troubleshooting on my car. I bought their entire service department pizza on a Friday once because they really went out of their way to help me (when they didn't have to).

Bob was fired after about 6 months. No idea why.

The new Service manager used to be their parts guy (Andy Deusa). Took my car in to have a tire mounted and they absolutely destroyed the powder on one of the wheels on the balancing machine - don't ask me how.

Anyway, they paid for the wheel without question and even let me use my original powder shop to have it done.

Good folks at Criswell.
