lets try and keep the peltiers out of this for now, there will be another seperate thread about that....

i have used it on a low boost setup before with good results

that gt22 that you posted up, how does that measure up with the vnt-20?

Definitely do not use a grinding method on your pistons for that modification, use a milling machine or just don't do it at all.

i know, i just noticed! a little pricey though :( esp. since my car was stolen on the 4th (got it back on friday with a new spray paint job :( ) and my $1558 laptop (that i bought last thursday) was ripped off :(

So im kind of disgruntled that i just lost almost $1600
