Default Re: Turbo Crossfire 2.0

To make a long story short... I've been working two full time jobs. I was working a weekend shift and I picked up a 1st shift job building 11-15 liter diesel short blocks at Navistar(International Harvester). This will be my first weekend off in over a year. I also bought a 95 Eclipse GST that needed some maintenance done before I could start using it as my DD. The Crossfire is running awesome, I will make a video of it this weekend. The engine is fully broke in and I turned the boost up to 12 psi yesterday evening and made a couple of 1st-2nd gear pulls. There is one thing that is really bugging me though. I think the passenger side strut is damaged. It's making the same crunchy clicking sound that a bad cv joint makes when I turn sharp to the left. I jacked it up last night with the wheel off and I can't find anything loose so this is my best guesstimation. I'm going to try spraying all the rubber bushings with silicone first.

I did get a 3" Coleman Racing Aluminum driveshaft installed which fixed my driveline issues. It's a tight fit. Sorry for the bad cell phone pic.
