Well I found my boost leak today - broken clamp on the crossover pipe. Not really sure how I managed that but whatever - I'll get a new clamp tomorrow hopefully.

I did have a chance to change the oil again today for the second time in it's 235 miles of life. I'll change it once more or so by the time it gets to 500 miles. Then I'll be back to it's regularly scheduled 2-2500 mile intervals.

Once I fix the boost leak I'll see where tuning stands and if I think I need Matt to make any changes, but for right now it's still fun to drive, even if it's all below 15 lbs of boost. It's harder everyday not to let it eat because it really seems to want to come alive lol. Or maybe that's just my wishful thinking, who knows.

I am not a betting man, but if were, I think when you finally do let the big dog eat, you will get to see a glimpse of what heaven looks like.

Pretty common oil change interval on performance engines.
