Supercharger stuff (MILVs+AA+BPC)

"Another issue we ran into is on a pull the car started smoking and missing and Bob had to end the pull half way through, we had a hard miss on cylinder #1 and #2 and found that the plugs didn't look that good as well as looking into the cylinder we found the intake valve was hanging up with a piece of what looks like thin aluminum in the way. We were able to blow the piece out of #1 and have a picture for you, there was a small piece in #2 also. We haven't pulled the blower yet and would want you to make that call but it does look like it would be best to pull the Intake and blower to check as to where the debris may have came from.

Kinda bummed that I didn't break 300, but it is what it is. It could be that its mid summer, stationary in a hot garage may be harming numbers too... but I also think it may be my unorthodox exhaust setup. e85 won't happen as of yet since we'd be tapping out the injectors so Bob is giving it a go with a blend vs. full e85.

Awesome! Keep us posted, and I am right behind you brother and want that POWA!

We gon' get there... someday!

Damn that junk in the valves is a real bummer. I hope your motor is ok dude!

I think on a cool day, like 50 degrees and dry weather, your numbers would be over 300whp and 250wtq. It’s way too hot now and that is definitely affecting your numbers.

praying the same about the engine!
its just ironic... last time it was my disa acting up now some mystery shrapnel...

hopefully well... some of that shrapnel was actually found behind the car. idk whats gonna happen. shot an email to AJ. that big piece stopped the intake valve from closing, idk if there are any remnants in there. -_- what a headache. We'll see when they get her back on the dyno.

desertman123 · 08-03-2018, 10:37 PM

Yeah at that point you'd probably want to pull the head

What piece is that exactly? Is that like an air 'straightener' for the MAF

CobraMarty · 08-03-2018, 10:46 PM

What the heck is that honeycomb thing? Is it BMW or ESS?
