have turbo apointment friday....

well friday is my lucky day. i have been patient enough to wait and buy all the parts i needed to ditch the greddy kit and put on the new turbo, manifold, and wastegate. i was low on cash since i just built my bottom end. as soon as the car goes in the shop. they are gonna make me a 3 inch down pipe and a 3 inch exhaust. so hopefully i will see some power gains very shortly. and not long after that it goes to the dyno. im hoping to make anywhere from 350-400 whp. but i still have a stock ls head so it will be restrictive till i go ls vtec. but im not going to do that for awhile. cause my hatch deserves some new rotas.
ill keep you guys updated. wish me luck!

well the turbo is on and its kinda weird cause i am running 5 psi and the external wastegate is load as hell! but the t3 t4 is not as powerful as the tdo4 cause the tdo4 had 16psi and the t3/t4 has 5 and it feels slugish guess ill crap when i up the boost
