    97' m52 turbo
    I guess that's a positive way to look at it MilkT. Thanks



    This was after 14 psi and maybe 6-7 WOT pulls: Not sure what to think. You can see the oil seeping out. Its really only in that spot though other parts looks fine for the most part.

    If it gets bad I guess I'll pull the head and fork out the coin for another cutring / decking, etc...

    Should just skip the 18 PSI and start shoehorning now.

    I'm kind of used to the power level already. It's quick don't get me wrong but you get used to it.

    And It seems the 6262 isn't hitting full boost as quick as expected. Especially with the .56 exhaust housing.

    I had the EBC setting on 14 PSI max and I stopped accelerating around 75 mph and it had only hit 12.6 PSI. Pretty sure I was in the 6.5 - 7 k rpm range as well (and this is straight piped for the most part)

    Install a heavier WG spring and that should help it spool to higher psi faster.

    All the reading I've done says to put the WI nozzle 8-10" before the throttle body, don't put it on a bend, keep it far enough away and after the MAF so you don't get it wet. This will cool the incoming air with the best distribution of the water/meth with a single nozzle.

    A .56 6262 isnt going to have much topend. Too much backpressure.

    Although you should see full boost in the range of 3200

    What spring do you guys recommend?

    And that is the lowest boost level Ill be able to run correct?

    Anyone have one for a turbo-smart lying around?

    Yes definitely hits full boost by then if not a bit earlier

    Heres the problem I'm having with the nozzle. (I know I didn't plan it too well). I dont have enough "meat" after the MAF to mount it into the pipe.

    Really not sure where to put it as this point without changing the piping around. Which I really dont want do because it fits so well.

    Here's what I mean:

    Cut yourself a tb spacer plate and install after the maf. I don't know how well it would distribute :/.

    You could also install it pre turbo if its a small nozzle.

    I'm using the smallest nozzle it comes with.

    There's gotta be some kind of adapter you can buy to get it to into the boot though. Which would be ideal.

    Nice! $30 bucks too

    same threads and size as the AEM I presume? If so I think we found a solution.

    The red 90* boot between the MAF and TB, does it have any ports on the bottom?

    You da man Butta's

    Ordered.

    Now what should I run for meth? I've found a few pre-mixed bottles online but I'm sure what I should paying. Please take a noobie standpoint here, I've never dealt with Meth and input from the methheads would be awesome.

    This is what I've found so far:

    Sorry missed your post, it does.

    Ones used for the intake temp sensor and the other is for the ICV. I've thought about shoving it into one of those boots and clamping it but the nozzle isn't wide enough.

    Im in the same shoes man, I don't know were to get my meth. But Patric 95AWm3 just said buy it off amazon, I think you mix it 50/50 or 80/20 meth on heavy side. I think im just gonna get mine off amazon. Which nozzle did you run with your AEM kit?
