Default 2 thumbs up for RaceRelated.com!!!!!!! I GOT TURBO!

Alright, i just got home from their shop after mark did the finishing touches on my car. I am now running 5 psi of boost and jesus does the mx6 pull EFFIN hard now. I especially give kudos to marks welding work, he made that shit work nice and look oh so pretty, you know you want to sexor the downpipe mark!. hah The install is VERY clean and works Well. Hardcore Props to James and his Crew, James youre an awesome buisnessman to deal with, i know i got hooked up insanely and i am forever in your debt.

After finishing i took the 6 for a test run up and down the street, just to see what she would do, for a second i thought i ruined my motor when it started bogging and it got REALLY damn hot after a few seconds. We popped the hood and it was just the Throttle body elbow popped off ( i forgot to tighten that hose clamp, dumb me) Reinstalled and tightened and she ran fine, had a little fun on the way home after realizing that i hadnt done damage to the engine.

For those too lazy to read. Racerelated.com VERY professional in every aspect, buisness and fabrication. Wahhh i still cant believe im boosted!

Garrett T3 .42/.48


perfect for this motor, nothing too hughe. Heh man when that boot popped off i nearly shit my pants because i thought i blew the motor. At first glance under the hood i didnt realize it, but the boot that connects my MAF to my TB popped off due to the pressure, i put it back on and tightened the clamp, stayed on and works like a charm! i would sleep, but im full of Dew and super excitement
