So I finally installed my engine cover. Last few engine pics of LowNSlowNeon motivated me to get off my ass.


Also............. For anyone interested in this kit Late Model Resto has them on sale for $200 off right now.

I'd like to know as well. I'm just speculating but I think I've heard 6lbs.

put 98 octane and still knocking some times is it normal
i got 460 Hp at 5000 rpm and 479 of torque we used the pre-installed springs with 6 psi
and we will do an other run next week be cause the tuner didn't want to go hard on the new turbo he said .

That doesn't sound good, is your tuner familiar with these cars? I would probably look elsewhere for a tune, motors are not cheap.

^^ agree. something not right. It should make low-mid 500s on 5-6 psi on gas.

I wasn't getting any knock during the initial tuning with 91 octane and about 15* total timing.

Yes people utilize remote tuning all the time and then download them to the X4 then upload to the car. I don't know if AED or Lund tune the ON3 kits but I'm sure TSS in Texas does so I'd start by emailing those guys.

might want to contact triangle speed shop thier tuner is top notch and he has remote tuned many turbo cars and can definatly get you hooked up.. He's probably one of the top 3 tuners in the U.S.

Knocking is not normal at all, your either experiencing some sort of false knock ( exhaust tapping frame somewhere, exhaust leak) or possibly bad gas. I'd hold off on driving the car or doing anything with it for that matter until Daniel at TSS returns your email.
