got it runnin and took it out tonight. its great. made 6 lbs and felt great. for all that were woried bout the wastegate it worked flawless. has a 6lbs spring in the gate and never made more. im glad bout that. it felt great on only 6 cant wait for final tune to turn the wick up and really let it rip. its all on3 parts turbo, gate , and bov and so far so good no complaints. spools very fast and is supper loud, just what i was looking for in that department. all in all i have ZERO complaints and am very impressed. it demolishes the bfg,s just like i wanted. the kit is great and would reccomend the builder to everyone, he is the man!

What does he charge for the hot side set up minus the turbo using a T4 flange Yenk? Pm me the response when you can. Don't forget you promised me pics of the drilled front cover.

Hell yeah he is! He's putting the finishing touches on my kit tomorrow night, but I have plenty of pics of his work so far!
