Well, had a "explosive" afternoon. :roflmao:

Tested my intercooler system, tank had 80psi in it, turned the regulator up to 10, heard a small leak, to tried to turn it up a bit more, and kinda turned too far, went up to 40psi, as soon as I said "&*$^" the 4" cap 'sploded off the front of the turbo, hit the garage door, and I was already across the street scared out of my mind :roflmao::roflmao:

Tried it again at 30psi and found 4 leaks on the cooler. All where the core meets the end tanks on each end of the cooler.

the rigged tester



After sitting at 25psi for 10 minutes, it drops to 17psi. :(

If I left at 3000 id burn my tires off so fast. I cant leave higher than 2500rpm or truck goes bananas. being 5500 lbs helps and it hurts.

That sucks. Would have been a good pass. Probably 11.2 or low 11.3 ET.
