Re: Project: Mavro Gato - 99 Turbo'd 3L

When driving, I shift around 7,000 RPM

If my calculations are right, the car should be able to muster 180+ MPH in 5th ... at Bonneville

Re: Project: Mavro Gato - 99 Turbo'd 3L

Here is a very good article on PCV bypassing: http://www.supersixmotorsports.com/pdf/PCVBypass.pdf

It tells you how to bypass it completely without having un-metered air issues.
