Bigger and better

Thats awsome. good choice in turbos. My Internally gated 61 creeps to about 22psi above 6000. With the LIPP housing you'll probly be OK. Get that thing out on the road and give us some reports.

Great story Chris!! That was a fast turn around. I guess we'll be able to see this monster at the Cookout. W00t!

So how is it?!?!?!?!?

Working this morning, I'll have it on the road in a while ;)

Nice! Less work and more play. :)

Maybe the DSM gods are smiling down on you or something, because without your old turbo taking a crap on you, you wouldn't have gotten this turbo, and it just happened to be for sale locally.

Good to see that everything worked out well

Well said! I'm on the home stretch here, but I need to leave for a wedding @ 5pm...we'll see if I get to take it out yet today! (crosses fingers)

Just took the car out for a spin. The first few trips around the block i had coolant leaking out of the coolant feed line (again! Ahh!). Checked the coolant level, all is well. Then after getting back out after a 10 min drive, no coolant leaking anywhere, and the coolant level is ok! :)

She definitly needs some tuning time. Not sure my 650's will be up for the task past pump gas, but we'll see. Second gear pulls yield max boost pressure of about 17psi, and boost onset occurs somewhere around 4500 rpms. There is a ton of power in this turbo, the sheer size of the thing makes me just giggle!

You will definately need bigger injectors. I have some 780's that I was going to use for that turbo.
