'Small 16g'

any 16g will have the 6-bladed comp wheel, not the 10+ like in the pic above. Sorry man, I'd ask for some cash back on that deal, ouch...then again, at this point maybe just say eff it and keep moving on it.
Yeah im just moving on. I got the car for $1500, Ive already put in a lot of money to get it running. Im not too worried about the turbo, my numbers on the dyno day may be really low though (not that they were going to be very high anyways. ) But its only to get a good baseline number for when the modding begins. So maybe a really low number will be a good thing
I just know that driving the freakin thing is going to be annoying until i get a lag monster on there.
Maybe at the track i could go for the 14b record. HA HA.

LOL like i told Kracka, Theres nothing like when shes spooling up and you start sinking into the back of the seat. Then when you reach the final boost level for a couple thousand RPMs, then it starts all over again when you change gears.
With smaller turbos, that sinking into the back of the seat doesnt happen very long, and your already at the top of the boost and leveling off. like a quickie.

Care for a ride in my car? Might change your mind 4000+rpm of powerband can be quite a lot of fun!
