$70 + shipping. You can buy a 4 core intercooler an make more power, but this is cheaper

I didn't read the whole thread ...

did anyone suggest getting some "blower" cams?

They will give you a nice increase in power for certain.

Thanks yall!!

I was out today and pressure tested everything again. I found a leak right after my blower b/c my coupler was a bit big. 3" for a 2.75 outlet but I wrapped the sc with tape. I got my 2.75 - 3 coupler today so I replaced it and also took out my wastegate y pipe and wastegate and replaced it with a strait piece of alum pipe. I don't think I have any leaks except I hear it pissing out the EGR a bit so I am not sure if it is just leaking b/c the car is off or if it closes when the car is on? Any word on that?

But I can tell now the car picks up quicker so I am sure the boost is up.

I also routed the driver valve cover to a T so it goes to my catch can. Plugged the bung on the back of my TB and ran the tube to a T to my catch can as well so the vapors still get sucked out.

I noticed though when I am WOT my A/F droppes to like 10 or 11. It was right around 11.5 or so aftger my tune. Is that OK? I mean that is just a bit rich right? I just don't want to get on it and fuck it up...

Thanks Bros!!!!!

lol !!! duct tape..get the proper coupler reducer....
as far as your a/f i would not be getting into it if it's not tuned right...foir the extra psi you may have lost..

Some people might say that an ultra rich tune could wash the cylinder walls and and cause you to lose the seal on your rings. . . . . . . But I think that would be closer to 8 to 1 and im not sure how reliable that info is.

Running around driving normal or getting into it a bit it is normal like 12.5 - 14 you know but at WOT it jumps down to 10.3 or so to like 11.5 so IDK.

I mean if it was that rich I could pull it a point or two with my tuner but I don't want to mess with it b/c it is like at 10-11 only you know.
