It will build boost on the foot break!
Everyone knows that rear mount turboz don't make any power... Why on earth would you waste time doing this? ;). Happy yours seems to be running well with low boost,
Maybe I can sort out my issues and be at 8-10psi soon... 6psi is a handful already with an engine making 500hp pre forced induction... I find it funny how their are a massive amount of threads of people 'attempting' to go f/i but no one ever finishes, as most make the build too complex or don't exactly know what they are getting into before they do it. Anyways I'm happy you finally got it running and moving under it's own power! Can't wait to see the dyno numbers
Not a good update I had an oil leak around I thought it was the just the oil pan well I pulled the pan to find bearing material in the pan well the thrust bearing is whipped out not sure if it's the converter are what going to pull the motor when I cool off in a week are two!!!!!!!!!!!
You haven't ran it that hard yet for the converter to Balloon right?
Do you have an anti ballooning converter? Was there at least a 3/16 gap between the converter and flexplate so it pulled the converter out of the trans just a bit to bolt to the flex plate or was it super tight?
Pretty sure guys have had their cranks repaired and not turned them down. Depends how bad the job looks after it is fixed I guess. If he gets into the journals then its a problem.
Since you have it apart. For giggles check the Input Shaft end play on the transmission. Maybe the input shaft is pushing the converter forward wiping out the thrust bearing? Just something to verify.
