The Guys at MRT performance show us how and what an anti purge fuel pump does. Using the return fuel line at the base of the anti surge box. They also install one in front of you. Looks pretty simple. But don’t let the Pro’s fool you.

Wastegates Explained by Ignition Tech Guys
Wastegates allow excess air to pass, with out this mechanism too much pressure may harm your engine. There are two types of wastegates, internal and external. Both do the job but each has it’s own qualities. An external wastegate or Blow Off Valve is used more often with larger turbos. The internal wastegates are the usually stock performance.

1993 Old School Subaru Video
Wow truly an old gem. Mcray is in the old school legacy from 91 and it is a tank. Taking more than a beating from each course. It is too bad Mcray couldn’t have a better race. A team Co-pilot tragically passes after a fatal injury. And Mcray win the league championship by 16 seconds.

My Subaru accident.
So I was driving home from work,and i was on a concrete bridge. It was around 6 o’clock, and it was sleeting out. The road veered to the right, and i was in the middle lane traveling south. I noticed my car was not turning, immediately I turn the wheel all the way to the right, with no avail. Heading straight towards an SUV, I woke up to another accident right beside me. A grey passat wagon had also slipped and crashed i noticed quite a bit of blood around me. Scared and in shocked i observed my pinky finger was broken. I quickly mustered up some courage and put it back in place. The emergency crews arrived within minutes, a paramedic began to examine me while I remained in the vehicle. An officer showed up and asked me how I was doing, and asked me for my insurance card. The drivers side door would not open, so the firefighters used the jaws of life to get me out. As I was pulled out from the wreckage I noticed a skinny women who was also being questioned. We met inside the ambulance as I grieved for her forgiveness. The paramedic attempted to calm me down as I continued to sob. I arrived at North Memorial hospital, the staff took care of me very well. They x-rayed my whole body for injuries. And took a C.T. scan to check for internal bleeding or wounds. The results were negative, but I had sustained two fractured wrists, a fractured rib, and smaller nose a finger fractures. A bump on the head with two scratches and a large strawberry on the left knee. The next day the doctors had determined my left wrist needed surgery. After gauging this experience, the surgery was the most uncomfortable.

Amazing Ken Block Vid
Wow i have honestly underestimated the skill of this man. I love how he scrapes his bumper, I also have had a hard time understanding what that odd 90 degree obstetrical is for. He looks very relaxed though out the whole course. Complete control during the 360 around the cone. For 3 minutes, I was very entertained.

Murphy-Hanrahan Park Reserve
Click it, it should show you where it is or google it. There is a road called Murphy Lake Blvd. It is usually pretty clear of cars and a few of the turns have a good view of whats in front of you. The gravel roads also get very very sharp and dangerous for that matter. There is the classic S turn, and a really tight S turn. ( The one that is danerous) These roads are a lot of fun. But the fuzz roll around there every so often. And anyone going there to mess around should probably have a front man. Two way radios would also be a great asset. Oh if you think these roads are fun, wait till it snows.

Turbosmart Boost Tee
I bought the Blue or non sleeper tee from MAP, good price and very simple to install. Cut the line to the actuator and the compressor. Leave at least 12-10 inches of tubing for a good connection and room to keep the Tee away from heat. The instructions should speak for itself. I got mine for 79.99 plus tax. Fair deal.
