Notice a trend here people? Everyone wants something for nothing. Step up dudes! What do you have to loose, $50? Meh. C'mon, I already pay for server hardware, hosting, software, and maintenance for this site out of my own pocket, providing you a community to BS, play games, BS, organize sweet events, BS, and more BS....then work my tail off to organize these events.

What ya say SGH, DB.....pitch in some prizes?
we love you scheides.

When I'm at home I'm going to start clicking on more ads, more prizes will be worth it.

Big thanks to Mark for helping me button up a few things before I get tuned. Got the two oil leaks from turbo/manifold fixed and holes retapped, got oil and water return lines from turbo both fixed, got a 10in pusher fan installed on the turbo side of the radiator, exhaust leak fixed, oil feed line filter installed and oil pressure gauge reinstalled with a new t-fitting at filter housing, it was a long day. All that is left is to rewire fuel pump (have all parts) and fix TB seals.

Nah, I just need some incentive to get my jalopy running that day. Besides, $50 is $50, the economy sucks.

I'm sure MAP will be kicking in some prizes, they always are quite generous.

Why would you put a pusher fan on the turbo side of the radiator?

I meant on the driver side of the radiator. Like where the stock AC fan goes, we put a fan between the radiator and the intercooler, pushing air towards the back of the car. I only had the one fan up until now on the passenger side, the stock second fan doesn't fit with the external wastegate.

I'm having my car tuned before the dyno day, but on a dyno dynamics dyno, I'd say it's worth it to compare numbers alone, plus have a really good time. Do it!!!

So, now it's just seeing if It'll be ready.

This would just be to document the gains of a T28 over the T25 at stock boost, but it would be interesting to see none-the-less.

Did you get one? If not, get that small 16g in the FS section.

I'll be buying new from MAP, or ordering online if MAP won't price match. They sounded like they would, though, so we'll see.

I'd have preferred a rebuild, because quality control is better (100%), but couldn't find one.

Re: Offical call out for fall dyno day: time to walk the talk!

Hey, I've got all the bolts liberally sprayed with PB Blaster. All I need to do is get my hands on the new turbo.

I ain't no slacker.

I'd take a used but decent shape 16G over a rebuilt one. I trust Mitsu a whole lot more than I do some Billy-Bob rebuilder.
