The lebaron is boosting between 8 and 10 psi right now, haha.
I put a crappy ram-air intake in there...just because there's no reason not to.
It's actually pretty fun to ride in.

Haha, Jersey Jay nice to hear from you. It's funny, once a car has boost you just want to keep putting it up. You sold your FX45? Why did I not realize that?
I can see that the Z06 is running well from your signature...ahh how I miss those summer days. Nothing like feeling like you are taking off in an airplane...but being in a car.

Hey Mike,
Yup dumpped the FX45 it was a pile of shiat!!!!!!! Burneed a quart of oil every 700-800 miles. They wouldn't lemon law it so I dumped it and bought the Porsche which I should have done in the first place.
The Vette is finally starting to come around, can't tell you the countless man hours into this project.
I don't feel like I'm in an airplane, it's like a rocket now.
Your right you just want to turn up the boost.
My only problem is I have no traction, I have to tub the catr and put 355's on now as it breaks the tire loose in 4th!
hey if you come out to a meet this year with Manny I'll be sure to make it.
I think you should forge your motor and turn it up to 20 psi!

Actually, I have an old Saab Intercooler in the garage, once that goes on I'm going to put it to 14PSI (that's the max for the stock computer). Right now I'm using just a grainger valve to controll boost (well like a grainger valve).
Works pretty well for what it is. I redid the valve cover gasket so that's not leaking. Unfortunately last weekend I had the turbo coolant return line go, so I spent some time fixing that. That's what pretty much got me thinking to put a ghetto-intake on there.
At least it makes it easier to take off rather than pulling a whole airbox/hoses. In the summertime I'm going to pull the engine and rebuild it. Not quite sure whether I"m going to put the T2 internals in, or stay w/ the ones I have and just rebuild it/all new hoses.
