Turns out the boost line was installed backward (the directional pill in the line was flipped around restricting the boost).

Dynographs after turbo installed and tuned

Unfortunately, I don't have a direct comparison of the same turbo before and after being reworked. But, hopefully this will be sufficient or help those who are thinking of doing this. I highly recommend it, as it definitely makes a great improvement, only I wish I would have had Deadbolt put in the bigger impeller wheel.

I didnt know you still roamed around here......for awhile there I thought you sold your rex, since I hadnt seen you in like 80 years.......until you showed up at the last BDG you came to. How'z the rug rats doing? Did you ever buy one of those baby Recaro seats? Gotta hook one of those up. LOL

Glad to see you're still hanging around.
