Re: Dave's Evo X Build/The Life of Dave blog

I am a 1/4 mile kinda guy, not endurance so hopefully I'd be ok.

Lets pretend the turbo in question was ball bearing, would the risk be reduced greatly?

I don't plan to push the car quite as hard as before, at least not right away until I make sure everything is perfectly working but the X turbos seem to really dump boost up top compared to their 8/9 counterparts.

edit: what kind of spring pressure would I need on the external gate? I am looking at the compgate ones that MAP designed their downpipe for and they go up to 26psi...I am guessing at least 20psi but maybe external gates don't need that high of a spring?
