    7# @ 6200'

    Well I finally got my car running this weekend, I had a few problems but it seems to run good with just a basic mechanical tune. At first it would ping with 2psi with 8 degrees of advance, then I backed it off to about 6 and smoked the belt. I bought a grade A quility belt and ran the car I seen 7psi at about 6K in this bad mountain air so I am happy. I tried to see I there was more boost with more RPM's and I accidentally found the cars rev limmit, I never was able to do that before needless to say I runined my air pump, it never has spun that fast before and its original, it sounds terrible now so I can't even drive the car. Anyone out there that has eliminated their air pump want to get rid of it?

    I just took mine apart and hollowed out the insides. Now it just spins free and acts like an idler pulley or delete kit.... and that's free. :)

    I Thought of doing that but unfortunatley I have converters that need some air from the pump for cooling.
