A few places in the threads on the brass couplers on the turbo. I need to clean it all up again then drive it and see EXACTLY where it is coming from. It makes the system look ugly and I hate to show it that way. I bet it just needs more teflon tape or patse. lol

I've had my kit on since july. Runs great. Have the same leak everyone else has and one on my passenger side valve cover. I think on of the cover bolt gaskets are bad. Cleaned it up this weekend and its still leaking. Other than that everything is great.

I have had my kit on for about a month or more. So far I love it except for the fact that it is finding every week point in my drivetrain. Mods to come hopefully.
3 inch steel driveshaft - installed
Stange 12 bolt - on the way
Spec stage 4 clutch - soon
Mcleod bellhousing - soon
driveshaft loop - soon
6 point cage - spring
Maybe I can actually take it to the track after all of this. Do you guys see anything else I may need?

I've had mine for a few months now, and I love it. Some of the comments are too funny. "What's the turbo doin' all the way back there??"
Gotta love the BOV! And Billy at TRT is awesome.

Is there any way to install this kit without having to give up the drivers' side exhaust outlet? I've been looking at this kit, but I would like to retain functional exhaust outlets on both sides of my T/A. Do any of you guys have install pics?
You could have an exhaust shop make something for you. It shouldnt be that hard.
You also will have to get rid of the drivers side sfc or alter the kit some. The charge pipe runs in the channel the sfc runs in.
