Default New Parts are ON!

Well after much waiting, I fininshed my install of some of my new parts tonight.

The Precision SC61:
HOLY CRAP this thing flows!
This turbo is amazing, can't really get on it yet until I get the car re-tuned but I can already tell that this is a bad ass turbo.

My old turbo must have been really messed up (it had 1/2" of shaft play back and forth), after installation of this new turbo my oil pressure has risen across the board 10-20psi. At idle my car is now 23 psi at temp and goes up to 80 psi (previously it was 12 psi at idle and never went above 65 psi). Also, I noticed another thing about this new turbo, the water temperature is about 15 degrees less then with the old turbo - the old one must have been generating alot of heat?? Needless to say I am very happy with this turbo.

The Tial wastegate:
Great wastegate, works flawlessly.

Profec B Spec II:
This boost controller is very simple to use and works great, no boost spikes.

Gator Racing Axles:
When I get to the track, I will let you know how these work. Installation went great and they are very high quality.

Thanks for everyone's advice and help on the board!

Later..

I have the same exact problems with my garet turbo. POS. I will hopefully be joining you in 2 weeks or so. Good luck. You have a real nice setup!

It is a bad ass turbo, I am very happy with it so far.

Here is a pic of my setup now.

I decided to keep the Drag manifold for now. I will save up the $700 for the Inline Pro and get that one. I ran out of $$..

Now it tuning time!
