The stock turbo was meant to be a temporary setup, I just wanted to get the car together. However, now I am really liking it so unsure if I care to swap it.

I feel like the graph doesn't even convey how peppy/fun this car is right now. I am digging it, never though the stock turbo would be so fun.

Indeed, will be nice to be able to do some normal maintenance in spring when I pull it out and just wash the car and drive it! Feels good to have a functioning car again.

Nice on getting it together though!
As I said up top, originally this was a temporary setup but has since grown on me a lot. I really doubt I will change out the turbo next year. I have enough other stuff to buy, like clutch, surge tank, need a helmet for the track, tires, preferably new exhaust or get mine welded etc etc.

The new turbo is low on the list, very low. Maybe I will rework my stocker into an EF1 or something for a bit more top end but I don't know that I want to.

I will try my best, I have problems leaving well enough alone. But as I said, its nice to have a fully functioning car that rips again.
