just out of curiosity jimfoo, do you still have the manual VNT vane cable hooked up? if so, do you use it often?

what would you say your driving habits are like? heavy acceleration, high boost? whats the highest boost you've taken this turbo to?

No, the manual cable didn't work as it would pull itself back in. Driving, somewhat heavy acceleration, but boost only 18 ish, EGT's hardly ever over 1300. The rebuilder said it could run 22 PSI, so I'm not maxing it out or anything.
