Yep got some Tein Flex coil overs in there. I bought them from a member on here and the rears needed to be rebuilt. I got them back yesterday and they were in yesterday night ;)
roffles at the tag!

510awhp no nitrous today, so things seem fairly good with the manifold, intercooler and motor. Maybe hit it with the nitrous later this week.

Yea I'm pretty pumped it made that kind of power on just boost. Best numbers before were 488. 100 shot should hopefully be pretty fun.
Huge thanks again to Shane for the awesome, amazing tune and Danny for fixing my intercooler and intake mani!!!!!

What I found in the surge area of the compressor housing.

I'm really not sure what to do, I think I'm getting super close to maxing this turbo out and was thinking of going bigger but I also wanted to go to the track one more time this year. It spins fine and doesn't look like it hits the housing when you spin it but you can tell it did or whatever did rub around for a little bit.
Maybe I should just say fack it for the year and do a couple upgrades and try and actually go fast or really say fack it slap it together with the twin disc that should be here tomorrow and let the mo' effer buck. haha decisions, decisions

Did it suck up a squirrel or something? hahaha I dunno that I would try running it like that. At least pull the compressor cover and make sure none of that stuff is wrapped around the wheel.

It kind of looks like a piece of thread or something, I just wish I knew how it got in there. I thought after turning the car off last week I thought the turbo didn't sound the same but didn't even bother to investigate becuase it still pulled pretty decent.
Good call on taking it apart, I'll have to do that tomorrow at work.
