Got some work to do...they just showed up after a tour of the east coast 
I plan on racing tomorrow in our local ODR event if all goes well today
oh on another note...3 of my 4 vehicles now have turbochargers (I think I have issues
)
bought a 2011 Mazdaspeed3 last weekend...that little thing is a BLAST to drive
my other turbo vehicle is a 2003 Ram 3500 with the cummins

well...the rockers are installed and lashed...finally...
why can't companies make parts that work with their own parts? rockers had the slightest interference with the rocker stands. had to sand a few thousandths off the bottoms for clearance. even on the old rockers, you could see on the old rockers where they rubbed the slightest bit

dunno...hard to tell spoolup until you do a burnout at the track. need heat in the turbo. its acting more laggy, but thats normal in driveway tests...
