My break-in on my 5pt. turbo will be complete tomorrow and was wondering if the tuning procedure was about the same? Thanks in advance
with the short needle

my 7pt is about 2.5-3 turns on the lsn and 2-2.5 turns on the hsn 2047 pipe
and my 3pt race is 2.5 turn lsn and 1-1.5 turns on hsn 0801 pipe

and my 5pt with the long needle is 2-2.5 turn on lsn and .5-1 turn on hsn 2047 pipe

running nova #6 turbo plugs and 25% MM fuel
just make sure your idle gap is between .7-1mm and you should have no problems tuning
