    hehehehe she runs alot better now the turbo's running off all 6 cyclinders not just 3, helps jam the air through the cooler a bit easier,

    before i hit boost just gonna go over everything, check out clamps and bolts just make sure its all ready

    well it would be good if i could hit boost..... havnt been able to take her out of the garage, in netural its pretty hard to hit 0psi as the the revs build too fast and i cant go full map

    tried stalling it up but only could get to 1500rpm,

    my dump pipe didnt fit so i have to weld in a new peice to extend the dump pipe

    im gonna take her on the street tommorrow see if i can get her to spool

    ok to fit it takes a good 2-3 hours, to fit + remove in one day with testing takes round 5 hours

    total time spent on this car this week = over 65 hours

    just hurt my back getting out from under the car, decided to down tools.. as its not worth agrivating my back anymore or i could be back in thearpy again and have no turbo for ages
