Hey,
First off. I am loving my 855 T5. I added a mbc and am running about 15psi. Spikes to 17 and fades to 10. lol. Pulls like a beast though. I did the pcv last week, along with adding the sconeman intake (did add some performance and boost) and my hid kit.
Hit up the track tonight, and ran some bad times, but had a blast. I could not hook up to save my life. First time I did this rad burning (clear redline burnout through 3rd). People thought I blew my tranny or something because you couldnt see the car there was so much smoke. ran like an 18.7 cause I burned out the whole time. lol. Then ran a 15.7...spinning too much. Then I did it with barely break boosting and babying it through first and slamming second (still losing it in second though) and ran a 14.9 at 92. Just need to practice my launches.
However, a cool side note is that after doing the fat burnout run, everyone thought my car was a beast and wanted to see it. The subaru crowd really liked it. Overall a fun night. The whole side of my car is rubber. lol.

QUESTION!!
I did the pcv because I had pressure build up and oil was spitting out of the dip stick and I was smoking on startup. However, after doing it, I am still "drippiling) oil out of the dip stick. No longer blows out...but I still puff some smoke when I start up? What could this mean?

Car runs like a champ and pulls HARD! I'll have to get some videos up soon of it.

If you are running street tires anything more than a quick spin to clean the dirt off hurts more than it helps. Big burnouts are for drag radials and slicks.

Next time you go, drive around the water box.

When you did the PCV did you replace everything?
Did you clean out the PTC?

Its kind of ironic that I called bullshit on his "vandalism" thread and still try to help with other questions/concerns. Hell, he's responsible for my interests section in my profile :lol:

Just goes to show you that VS is a wonderful place and everyone gets 1 chance to be a total douche and still be accepted as long as it doesn't happen again
