I've had the 7bolt in my car since it came from the factory, never had an issue with it. Until, it dropped the balance shaft belt last Sept. Checked out a car for sale(from here) and it had a built motor in it with low miles on it. Bought it and brought it home, turbo was junk and it ran like crap due to many issues. Swapped motors, turbo setups, and a few other things.

Everything I noticed looked good on the underside, no signs of damaged bearings or seals. I should be back up and running, if all goes well, by the end of the week. Then hopfully get to MAP and beat Aaron on the 16g dyno numbers.
