Hmmm, why would you need to have the turbo ported/polished, did you do somethin to cause boost creep? Just to let ya know, Im still running a stock turbo....unmodified. I think you need a good engine management system that can control your wastegate .... somethin like mine.

Ha ha ha. I wonder what the outcome of that was.

Maybe that's why Mach5 gave his Dremel to me.

Well I bought a Turbo back and dont want to have any issues with boost creep. Just hoping that there was some one on island since this is my daily driver. I did read those threads by mario. Is there some thing else I can do for this?
