Looks great! I may have missed it in an earlier post, but just curious what exhaust housing a/r ratio you're using with the MP T-70 ... And once you get it going and complete more driving what your thoughts are on spool time. Thanks!

I got off of work and wanted to wash the car. I put the key in and prime the fuel pumps twice. I heard a loud sound of dripping water or some liquid looked under the car and my waste gate was leaking fuel....I was telling my self how dose a waste gate leak fuel. I looked at my vacuum/boost block and took off one of the lines sure thing full of fuel. and here is why http://youtu.be/TFA5-LeYR3Y

What regulator is that?

You will be pushing that turbo hard but it should do very well on it.
