Starwriter Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Don't turbo motors go through reeds like a hooker goes through condoms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mopar1rules Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 While I was a memeber of another forum, I read about a fellow that turboed a Banshee and if I recall correctly, it would beatup the reeds right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 I can't understand how it just doesn't float the reeds and make them useless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coryv4 Posted May 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 found out the problem upon further inspection i broke the gay ass small pedal off the boyseen dual stage reeds. is there a better reed that may handle the flow a little better? im not running as high of boost as most other guys are.
