Aidan's loose oily bunghole actually runs a track lap

Assuming it should be a steel fitting, I need to find my old 10an cap from the last oil drain I did.

VD shows my car makes about 400-420whp with four ID 1000's maxed out, 60 PSI base and 1:1 reference and holding fuel pressure to redline, on E85. But ebay all the things and conservative tune. If he made 450whp @ 88% duty cycle, then in theory at 100% ((450/88)*100 = 511) he could have made 511whp. I don't think anyone makes that kind of power on E85 with ID 1000's, do they?

I didn't even know what a turbo was back then brobeans. I was fresh outa high school.
I'd like to see similar numbers to soviet. No reason I shouldn't be able to. ~400 on pump ~450 on e85

With a single walbro450 I dropped like 4psi at full power on the dyno. I also found out my fuel sock was pinched against the bottom of the tank. Moved the pump up and will be trying again. Interested to see if it's any different.

Snagged a pair of these to connect from hard-line to an6 in the engine bay.

I run an -05 tube nut with a -05/-06 male union, all steel Aeroquip. I could only find a -06 5/16 tube nut in JIC, which felt like bad juju although fine on paper.
I think most tube nut issues (aside from mixing 37/45, which I assume Leafy didn't do) are from using a 37 degree flare tool meant for relatively soft hard lines. Mine is rated for stainless.

Ok sounds goodml. I will cancel my compression fitting order. Link me the tube nut stuff. How about I pick it up at mrls and ship it back to you. Id be happy to leave any sort of deposit that you would like.
