Methanol is like the poor man’s Nitrous 🤣

I did not plan to run 30psi, I am only going to run up to 25psi with the chip ecu and soon as I get a AEM or Map ecu2  
the boost will go up to 35psi.

Next time try not to drill extra holes in the gasket… just buy the right one, you might have better luck that way.

$2000 kat build… $20 ecu and a $5 gasket… some things just don’t add up.

EMS that thing… hopefully it might hold together that way and make good power!

There is no way the gasket is machined like that. Someone drilled holes in it… you can see that clearly. It blew out at one of the drilled holes.

No point in bullshitting.

In anycase… next time BUY ONE with only 4 holes… hows that! 🙂

Update!!! I suck at drifting, Fucking spoon out and jump a curb rip my lip off, I hope I did not damage my intercooler!!! Anyway did not make it to the track again, cause I blew out the new gasket I put in racing a R6 the other night!!! If you want to know I won!!! 20psi tune by DA1, at least we dyno the civic with the K20 that I did, 7 psi 260 whp ran into problems the guy only had money for one hour of tuning. You pay for what you get!! We also got two cars in the crew tune by DAN the man!!! I do not have the number as yet, but the Skyline mad 400 whp @ 18psi I think!! I was not there, I was at the other dyno place we use. Pease
