Nitro champs this weekend @ WSID. Starts Friday with group 1 first qualifiers @ 5.00pm.

All catagories will be well supported. I know for a fact that Top Alcahol has a group of 11 cars.

Will be crewing for Aaron Hambridge so come say hello. hoping for solid 5.60 or even high 50 to qualify.

Well awesome but busy weekend. went out for first qualifier on friday afternoon and went 5.72. this qualified us third. unfortunately we dropped an intake valve so that was our night done. pulled engine down, replaced bore liner, full set of pistons, rings and bearings. welded and repaired cylinder head, cleaned bits of engine out of everything else includind oil pump, dry sump, and blower. had car running by 11am sat morning. had first elimination at 5pm. ran 5.65 @ 248mph for the win. then seviced car for next round. Up against wayne Newby in semi final, red light by .02. overall good result considering the start of the meeting.

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
