ok so no new pics but here's a little update turbo is in and the car is running finally. I just dropped it off at primo to have a new upper ic pipe made so I can use the fp intake pipe I picked up so fingers crossed hopefully it'll be ready for the dyno day!

then you can run that yellow stang? haha

well here is another update. the car is up and running and survived a trip to st.cloud. still smokes a lot though. but I have it up to 15psi with no knock so far. I'm shooting for 20psi or maybe a couple more by saturday.

I'll post up a pic or two tomorrow

well the turbo blew up in 120 miles! I'll let you all know when I get stuff figured out but certain people are a lot more difficult to deal with. its not that hard to refund a persons money and take back thier junk product!!!!

as of right now he's full of excuses on why he can't give me my money back. so we'll see I might just have to have this one rebuilt by someone who actually knows what they are doing

imagine that, if it needed a restrictor why didn't he just save a whole lot of headache and tell you from the get go? I hope it works out for you shawn

but with my oil pressure a jb turbo shouldn't need one. and the options I have came up with to fix the sitiuation are very reasonable. but he's dead set on rebuilding it again but if it's going back on my car I don't want him touching it.
