Just asking since it appears that you ahve your maf in your intake pipe. So you will be blowing off metered air. I see problems in your future, but correct me if im wrong.

Like 1lowLS said you can tune for it. However if you dont tune for it you will be blowing off metered air, causing issues with bogging when you shift. I think we had this discussion with someone a few pages back.

Yep that was me, nothing wasn't issue, dying when coming to a stop was issue. Now run recirculated no probs. Update on my rebuild, getting close. All internals now cyroed,balanced, crank cleaned knifeedged, and cyroed, new track oil pan from powell, and new tune with more boost( previously at 14 psi, 319 whp)

tried out my new go pro today but i need to get a bigger sd card as this one only holds like 5 minutes of video on 960p and probably one minute in 1080 haha at like 44 seconds i did a little 2nd gear pull to like 4000 rpms and you can hear the blow off valve pretty good

My service air bag light came on when I had 20K miles, I just took it to the dealership and got it fixed for free but they never told me why the light came on

Bit of an update. Car should be done next week, oil pan ships monday, and everything else should be put together when it gets here. Crank is back from cyro and wpc treatment, and intake manuifold revised. Also started on my winter project: 5 lug swap, new front knuckles, LSJ front and rear brakes with powell front LSJ BBK(two piece foating rotors) and powell real disc swap. Also picking up some black with red stripe msr 045s 18x8 to go with my 235/40/18 star specs.

Hey Brags and Glowbalt did you all piece together your own kit? If so was it cheaper to do than the ZZP kit? And are you all auto or manual? And if so how is it? Cause I have an auto and I feel that turboing it would be weird compared to shifting your own gears and everything. And for the auto guys have you all done anything to the transmission?

LE5. I also wanted a precision ball bearing turbo, I run the PTE 5557 BB with .48ar housing. Everything on my setup is vband, and you can find their turbo mani and intercooler on their website. They did the motor (wiseco, carillo, supertech) as well as clutch and lsd insert install. Overall great company to work with but not cheap lol.
