Wes runs 13.3 WITHOUT the TMIC.

Jayson (with SIMILAR mods except the TMIC and a custom road-tune by Shiv runs 12.9).

Hopefully the TMIC is the lion's share of that .4 second improvement.

No, he was saying he runs a 13.3-13.4 with the stock top mount.

*edit- "Richard the Hawaii Post *****" posts too fast. So yeah, what he said.

Please note: this quote is not from the people that are looking at my turbo - but from one of like 10 companies that I e-mailed regarding rebuilding my VF30 when I found out it was defective:

Richard,

Sorry for the delay in response; IHI was closed until this morning.

It appears that IHI will not be making service parts (other than complete turbo and cartridge assemblies) available for the entire VF-series of turbochargers.

I don't have a secondary source for internal parts. The only offer I can make would be to physically try to match small parts such as bearings and seal rings.

Let's see.... no third-party vendor support... no parts availabity... what a buncha jagstains. sounds like I won't be putting an IHI on my car any time soon.
