Im not sure how we've lost popularity with anyone besides you, waiting for a product that hasn't been introduced and is still in test/preproduction, if it was ready for everyone you know you would be the first to know, im sorry we dont like products with our name going out with out the propped fitment or quality, anyway,

The crack in the turbine housing was there before I even touched the turbo, it was a hairline crack inside the exhaust housing in a badly cast portion of the the turbo, it wasn't noticeable until when it was welded the oil and carbon dissipated from the crack showing it up, if it was a clean fresh crack I would have known it cracked after the welds, I would love to have been able to fix this problem but it is a used part that had cracked before,
thanks for the kind words, and like I said please if there's anything I can do for any of you please just let me know,
