sometimes I learn the hard way


appearently, because i told you the right way to do it the first time..

*your turbos life will be significantly shorter if you keep running it up over 20 psi*

I made the changes a year ago but have only driven it 10 weeks since then.
Fun when the boost hits but time to upgrade to better turbo and intercooler.Any ideas for a turbo?
I plan to put boost controller on soon as I can.

How about just the FMIC? k14 is the best street turbo IMO unless you are willing to go compound or vnt.

Compound sounds very interesting.

compounding is not for the weak at heart..

basically required to use head studs, AAZ metal head gasket, and lots of fuel..
