LOL, I never touched the turbo, and I didn't drive the car THAT hard...

FWIW, during the build, I felt his turbo up with the dedication of a child molester -and liked what I felt. 2010 has not been your car year...

Just an update, the car has been working fine! I have the little ass WRX turbo in place running at wastegate pressure and everything has been working great. The car boosts very quickly and breaks the wheels loose if there's anything under them other than dry pavement. All electronics have been working flawlessly and the car has been starting like a champ.
This Spring I think I'm going to spend a little money and get my rear suspension all sorted out and then throw another VF39 on it until the Evo is 100%.
The next phase will be 68 HTA and (methanol injection or bigger injectors and E85) with a goal AWHP of around 350 or so which will be the end of power phases.

68hta? Wouldn't that be closer to 400+?
I like this car.

On a Dynojet yes, on a Dyno Dynamics more like 350. The HTA68 spools up like crazy on the 2.5l, but the top end falls flat due to the turbo just being maxed out. Good auto-x turbo.
