okay now lets not be mean about it, you all started at the same place i did. Maybe i jumped in to a helluva project, but its a blast, and a learning experience. Now i know I dont know everything about engines, but I do know alot. So, the one thing I ask is offer help instead of criticising me. thats what i would do. I dont know how old most of you are, but I'm only 18 and I'm married with a 2 month old son. So the car stuff is in my spare time only, wich isnt much. I'm sure if I had all the time I used to have I would know ALOT more about all of this. But, im doing what I can, and I am relying alot on the org for my information, SOOO when my motor blows, I'm still gonna blame it on you all.. mwa hah ahhaha. ok not really, well.. maybe....

lol this is too funny... JTR read dude thats all you gotta do, we just dont wanna see ya blow your engine up, i was on here reading stuff in the boost section, and researching in books for over a year before i did anything and you know what i still dont know everything there is about boost even though ive worked on a few turbo projects and my own supercharged car, ive still yet to understand the whole electronic fuel managment thing yet im stuck in the afpr / afmu stage because it works for me but im not gonna slap on a emanage or safc just to see what happends with out fully understanding what needs to be done first

like i said where just watching out for ya dude we dont like when people blow there @!#$ up and then come and blame us all lol

I used to be into all kinds of projects then we had the baby and sold every project except my cavi and i still get yelled at for putting a little money here and there into it. my daughter is 15 months, and i am only 18. But I love my cavi even though it ain't nothing to look at I still can't sell it and it doesn't run right now. I really want to get boosted within a year or at least by next years bash. Good thing is my baby already loves cars or at least the steering wheels and horns!

As I said in the other post, he's lucky he stopped driving the car.

10psi Wastegate spring + No fuel mods + No timing mods = 2.2l Paperweight.

I still give him until the summer... I'm thinking a random boost spiike or detonation will get the better of him.

But - we shall see!

Well I am going to listen to all of you guys, and in the past day I've learned alot. I hope and pray that when I'm ready to start the engine, it doesnt blow up. I've alos got alot of help from a buddy of mine that has an SR20det 240sx. But, its still an Nissan, and alot is different from it to the cavi. Also, I have been researching boost for over a year, actually this time two years ago is about when I ordere my Expoited turbo header. SO closer to 3 years, but these scenarios have never came up on the org, well atleast that I've seen. Now last summer I took a break from my cavi. I painted it in January 04 and then didnt do anything to it untill January 05. In taht time I wasnt really reading up on the org, I got into motorcycles a bit, and ended up buying two in 04, I rode about 9,000 miles sence March 04, that gives you an idea about how much the cavi set Anyway, thanks for all of the help you've givin me so far, I am sure I will have more questions. But to be sure I'm ready to go, like I said before, I am documenting all of my mistakes so when I THINK I am ready, you guys can make sure for me. Okay, I gotta get to work, so I can afford to support my bad habbits. Later. Also, I think its funny too, I'm truly supprised I havent blown the motor yet. Although FYI this is the second transmission

Yeah I figured a year is enough time to hold off on modding. right? I realized that once I started modding again, I was gonna drop more and more money into it. its so addicting. just so you guys know, i wasnt out driving the cav on 10psi, i had it at my dads shop, he's got a long driveway, i drove it down, and gave it some gas on the way back, realized there was a problem, and parked it. soo hopefully its not damaged. mwaha, i gots my new toy......... i bought an '03 honda. and it smokes my cavi, smokes it baaad

Really though I hope it all goes well. I have seen some off the wall posts from you and I'm glad the org could help you. After all, I'd hate to see the mess in the garage after you installed a 3" custom turbo-back PVC pipe exhaust. Good luck with the fuel mods! I hope my project reaches the "why wont it start?" point soon.
