Schweet!

Glad you are getting it worked out. Might be too late, but I would love to see some pictures of the install and what you did to get it down to a lower boost pressure.

I'll do pics of the intercooler install when I do it. I have a friend that will weld up some brackets for it.

The SPL is very simple, with just a diaphragm and a flat metal piece inside with a shaft attached. All I did was change the spring on the shaft to one that compresses easier. I don't get much smoke throughout the driving range and only wanted to clear up the initial takeoff smoke. From my observations over the last few days, that initial black cloud is gone before I even hit 2 pounds. Having the SPL open after 2 pounds works perfect for me.

I'm good to go this weekend, Saturday or Sunday. I know Sunday is Mother's Day, but my daughter will be with her mom so I'm free anytime.

Sadly its always mothers day around here. I never get a day off from mothers work. I do sneak off sometimes when she "needs something" we don't have here at home. And you bet I take a long drive in the crewcab...:eek::angel::thumbsup:

I know Gary. I do the 3:00 Starbucks run for mine everyday and of course I do the cooking also but she takes good care of us so I guess I shouldnt complain too much.
