Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!

Chris Scheidecker: I beg to differ 
I doubt he gets much shaft play

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
In the amount of time and money you've spent trying to get these turbo's from no-name vendors to work, you could have bought a nice one from a company with good customer service.
uhg.

Jesus...leave the man alone, I am sure he isn't happy the turbo doesn't work already, doesn't need everyone giving him crap, lol.

With ya on this one, not like swifty crawled in the turbo and fucked it up on purpose, shit happens. I do agree with getting a new turbo, from a vendor, to give you a little insurance on it not blowing to shit again. I wouldn't spend another minute with that company you have been dealing with (unless its to get the turbo rebuilt and selling it). I recall URV8SUX saying something about selling his turbo in the shoutbox (sorry, I don't know your name, screename will have to do haha), his seems to work fine

Swiftmeister, sorry man.  Time for better oil pressure monitoring at the turbo inlet or something? Gah that sucks.

meh. After all the advice given, all the I'm gonna do this and that, I'm gonna billet billet billet, and then half ass purchasing a no-name "GT42" and having it fuck up. Ummm. I'd say:
a. Take people's advice if you're gonna ask and have it simply just work
b. Take the shit you put on yourself because you skimp on a turbo and buy things out-of-logical order things and have no money left (fire suit, cage(the car hasn't even seen a time slip before), 20 gauges, -AN this and that, 50 different FMICs, etc.)
That's just my ten cents.
Maybe it's finally time for a turbo with a legitimate warranty. It really isn't that hard to put these cars together to make easy power...

Re: Swifty's never-ending project thread!
Seriously though, how the fuck does a rebuilt turbo have fucking shaft play within a 100 miles? Even if its a piece of shit knock off, it should last awhile longer than that. I could see one doing it, but two in a row, come on.
