Dual catch can install complete. I had to wait for a fitting to tap into the passenger side intake tube.

What fitting did you use? I have mine capped for the moment, not sure if the extra venting is needed.

I’m using this one, it’s from the UPR dual can kit. They don’t have it on the site yet, you have to shoot them a email or call to get it.

Saw it in this vid about 9 minutes.

Well, After the RMB motor handled last nights mess up on my part (didn't plug in a Wastgate hose after swapping coils), I would say it's almost bullet proof.

-18c (0f) + 3rd gear WOT = 26lbs of boost.

Opps...

Good to know. 26psi shouldn’t be anywhere near its limits but I guess @RMB_Ryan would have to confirm

I remember he spun his current motor out to 8k RPM’s when Rev was tuning his truck

26psi. Pfttt. Needs MOAR
 
We would want to remove the fire ring in the head head gasket and oring the block over 30 on the very very low end but usually 35-55 or maybe 60 psi we do that. From there you do copper head gasket, oring receiver grooves and sealant around coolant and a race car or truck type deal. New every race week.

Other thing, we always will need arp 625+ head studs at 30+ psi. Not even question that once and a while is fine, but if that is your thing than we require it to give you what and come to Raman for and be reliable.

Side note: we saw one old customer we worked with and he hit like 72 psi doing similar and exploded their Intercooler do to TB closing. Thank god to tuning with a tuner and not a tooner. Boost King is a tuner, period, a good one too if you asked my opinion.


This is all good news.

It's been -27c here and just too cold to flog the truck for data logging. It goes in tomorrow for the bodywork, I hope it won't take muck more than 4-5 days.

When it comes back, Aux Reverse lights, Fuel Pressure gauge and Boost gauge going in and hopefully some TurboSmart Waste Gates (CDN Customs sucks).

Are you running stock waste gates right now? Nothing different with the springs?

And what springs are you planning for the TS's?

And what gauges are using? And lights?

Oh oh and what kind of body work? :eek:
