I broke 4 studs removing things on two manis and sheared another 3 while driving (again on two diff manis - I think Corkey got tired of machining the broken studs out (but in his defence he didn't complain once) :-) M10 seems to hold up well - though I'm still wary of tightening / removing them (the heat cycles really seem to weaken studs...). I did hit them with PBW and tap them with the hammer prior to attempting to remove on the M8s.

Bell uses top lock nuts (instead of nodlock washers and normal nuts) that actually cut into the threads a bit - they hold better than anything shy of safety wire but eat into the studs a bit - and when you loosen them they tend to stick. I was torking them fyi. The studs on the exhaust mani are a bit bigger if memory serves and I'm thinking that those studs since they are in the head don't see quite as much heat as the ones the turbo actually sit on. Dunno didn't have that problem with the main exhaust mani studs.. Some of the M8 studs the turbo sat on actually just sheared off while driving but no probs on the M10s Google broken turbo stud and see how many links you get - seems this has been a problem in general even with OE turbos for a long time now - Kudos to Bell for going with big studs :-)

Need some help. THe Pierburg doesn't seem to want to cut on using the positive up not near the rollover cutoff wiring.I am going back through everything tomorrow. I'm getting no fuel Pressure though, and the car doesn't want to start.
Also I cant seem to hear my stock fuel pump cut on anymore.....

Runs awesome, in exception if a horrible exhaust leak, I need to diagnose.
But it feels nice to boost. When I let off the throttle, it seems to want to IDLE around 200 RPMS after boosting. (May be because of the exhaust leak.)

Got another problem, when it hits full boost now, the car seems to want to buck after things heat up. Is this a bipes setting I can correct? Am I getting too much retard? Does anyone have any settings on theirs they would like to share?
