Cool, take some pic's! Hopefully you get the cooling issues figured out.

Well just got off the phone with BEP. That sweet deal of a turbo was basically shot. It was the non-extended tip compressor wheel, he found a part of the center section cracked and broken off. I had also asked him to swap in a ET compressor wheel, but he said that the compressor wheel was seized onto the shaft so they couldn't get it off. Shit Deng!!!

Solution to the problem was, I just ordered a brand new S362 from him. Should ship in a couple days. It'll come with a .70 A/R T3 housing, with a V-Band out which I'm pretty happy about! Can't wait to see it in person!

Just went and spent $30 on SS fasteners. I think from now on, everytime I change something, or take something off, I'm going to spend the couple bucks to replace it with SS hardware. I bought SS fasteners for the TB, and for the Valve Cover just now. Yaay!

I enjoy that too. You should get some stainless, metric, socket head cap screws.

[Halon]

The bolts for my valve cover that I just bought, are exactly that.

Sucks to hear about the turbo, But at least you're getting other things sorted :)

[Halon]

Well the turbo arrived Thursday, but I couldn't get it because it required me to be home in person to sign for it. Bummer. Anywho it's sitting at the shipping office and I can go pick it up on Tuesday, I'm pretty excited!

[TkrPerformance]

nice did you get a good deal on it

[Halon]

Ya I got a decent deal on it. I'll post up some pics of it Tuesday or Wednesday once I have it in my hands.

From what I gather, it should flow a bit more than a GT35R at higher boost levels because of the extended tip design, and have pretty good spool up.

^badass man, hopefully you don't have the same spool issues like u did with the fiddy.
