yeah i know..im doin it wrong...lol. nah, just got tired of tracing oil leaks and oiling issues. before i knew it the stock turbos decided to take a **** so i was either gonna take em off and send em out for a rebuild or cut my losses on the kit and go with something simple. i chose the simple route and in the process will end up with more power which is allways nice.

That seems to be a running trend, My big block was built for twins but I ditched that **** and went f3. Ive seen too many people have reliabality issues with the turbo setups. But it is nice being able to dial your boost level without having to swap pulleys.

thats what prevented me from going procharger in the first place but apparently with this new Aster bracket belt slip is pretty much non existant anymore so i figured id give it a try. everyone i talked to that has this bracket had zero issues with belt slip. but we'll see...the way my luck has gone lately i wouldnt be suprised...lol

yeah its nice having the capability to adjust on the fly but im not one to mess with **** too much so it shouldnt bother me...ill let my foot do the adjusting..lol. had the turbos on the car for 4 years or so and never had the urge to turn up the boost. it was plenty fast for me on the street.

If anyone is setting up one big meet spot post it here with the time and place. I'll be coming through Berks County PA to get to OCMD. I'm stoked for it. Camming my car in a month or so and connot wait to roll down with the new setup (not that it's gonna be a rocketship or anything, but still)

I think I can accomplish a lot in 79 days like my car being one color and bringing my friend's LS swap with me. Should be awesome.

Video's of last year's show are great, but I don't think many do the show any real justice. With some of them 20-30 minutes long I only wish I had that much time to watch a video, lol. Exciting to think it's getting close to the two month mark in a few weeks.
