More to update.
Reduced the preload on the ez ryde. Much nicer, but it's a wheelie monster. I've got to work on the front of the skid to see what can be done to keep the front down without tightening up the back so much that it quits handling well.
I finally got around to installing the intercooler. With my older air box it wouldn't plumb in cleanly, so I cut off the inlet and outlet. I welded on some bends so that it would work better with the existing charge tube and and air box. Now I can go back and forth from intercooled to not with a change of two elbows and about 20 minutes of time.
I have also updated the turbo. The boys from OVS took an interest in my homely little project. We are running an experimental turbo that they may start using in their M8s. It's really quick to spool and needs huge weights to to pull the motor down. Now my wheelie problem is really intensified!
Dang the bad luck!:face-icon-small-ton
