The Turbo Diplomat is finally ready to hit the road under boost! But that's not coming without a price. After all the hurdles we cleared, do you think it'll actually boost? Stick around to the end of the video to find out!

    Well brother, as cool as those decals are that mom made I do have to be Debby downer to inform you that it is highly illegal to have a vehicle marked as a police car (sheriff in your case) but if you are seen driving it on any public roads by an actual police officer they'll stop you and toe the vehicle to impound leaving you with a court appearance ticket for "impersonating a police officer" which unfortunately you cannot argue your way out of because you are guilty of doing just that by driving that car! Now I could just be singing in the breeze if you're never going to register it and use it for a show-only and race event type of vehicle because that you might able to get away with but I think you'd be doing yourself a huuuuge favor to contact a local law enforcement near you and just ask them before ya go taking it out on any public roads!

    I have worked under cars on gravel and black-top for over 25 years. The only thing that saves the day are large cardboard boxes. Refrigerators, washing machines, TVs, they all work to cushion your back and help you slide back and forth while under the car. If you don't spill stuff on them you can reuse them as they will last a long time. The next best thing are small blue tops from Harbor Freight. There's no cushioning, but sliding is much better over gravel and grass..

That turbo whistle when u push it is everything and watching it lay down some Rubber easy.... you should take it and see what it will run at the drag strip. Also there is one of these cars identical to this car you have that is silver color with grey interior and leather bucket seats and beautiful grey carpet thats like soft as bear fur i say ive never ever seen carpet like that before , the whole interior is immaculate but somebody busted windows out of it so water is getting in when it rains now and dust from the junkyard .

    I'm very happy that you chose a Code 3 LP6000 for the lightbar, as it's pretty close to being period correct for the car. Personally I would have gone with a Federal Signal Aerodynic, or a Jetsonic, but the LP6000 is totally doable. If you ever have any emergency light questions feel free to ask me. I collect and restore them 😂

    They sell that as a “self learning” unit. You definitely need to transfer learn tables and smooth it over. Aim for a mid to high 11afr in boost. Whatever that engine likes NA for timing , knock 1/2 degree down per psi of boost while in boost. 1 degree per psi would be totally safe if you wanna ease into it. You’ll need a laptop, a splitter, a Holley cable and the software to really dial it in. If you need any help holler 🤙🏻🇺🇸😎

    I wouldn't rule the converter too loose until you can really drive it at WOT and see how it acts. I have a 3200 stall converter in my grand national and you can't feel it shift or see rpm drop while driving on the street because it's so loose. However at WOT it drops about 600 rpm on the shifts and bangs the gears like you wouldn't believe. Love the build!

    I suffered my share of shakedown run blues with my boosted EFI setup as well, but man, I'm here to tell everybody, including the critic who commented about how carbs don't suffer from EMF issues.....there's nothing like boost with a working EFI setup, the tuneup never changes, regardless of elevation, barometric pressure or ambient air temperature. Cold starts and hot starts like a champ. Jesus and boost are the answers to life's problems.
