Spark plugs were all perfect but replaced anyway along with cap and rotor. Will check timing just be sure I think and put a temp gun on the exhaust to see if the cats are working.

I do have a 2F in my 40 🤔

Honestly the manifold sits far enough away that you could likely just make a 3 bolt to T3 adapter and hang the turbo off of it…. Use the same internally wastegated turbo we use for the 80… maybe a slightly smaller housing… Holley sniper blow through, water to air IC that bolts on top, short intake tube to connect to the turbo….


Alright should we be stupid and actually do it? Start sending pistons out the bottom end

Yes, yes I believe you should.

Ever since detergent has been added to top tier gasoline, I have noticed my plugs don't get anywhere near the build up they did before top tier.

For science, and entertainment. It wouldn't be the first 2F, (or maybe 3F) to have a turbo. I thought I read about several on MUD years ago.

How much do I not care for air care Colorado? Just spent an hour in line and was next up when the manager came out and told me the station was closing down. No explanation just back up and leave. #%£!?•*@&!

Found out at the second aircare station that they close down when the temp gets to 14 degrees. I had been in line for about 45 minutes and the Cruiser outside air temp showed 14* the entire time. Whatcha gonna do?
I went to the Golden station on the first try and then the 52nd and Marshall place. While there, three awd vehicles in the two wheel drive line had to be moved in front of me in the awd line because the drivers didn’t know any better. 🤪 Someone in the waiting room said that next year all testing will be at self serve kiosks. Heard of that one?

Just heard on the news that Air Care Colorado wants to improve its services. Their first “improvement” will be to raise testing prices, possibly up to $50 or double the current cost. Oh yay! 🙄
On another fuel related front, figuring that gas prices would go up with the possible closing of the Strait of Hormuz I went out last night to the station that had the lowest price in my neighborhood according to Gas Buddy. Only thing, the station had raised the price at the pump by $.25 by the time I got there. The cost per barrel of crude dropped by nearly 9% today and futures shows it’s down another 4% this evening. We are living in the upside down.

The way they could improve their service the most is by being disbanded by our legislature! :rant:
