haha you are telling me !! I can't wait that long haha.


I got the block/heads in my apartment right now, just waiting for the internals to put in. Ya it sucks I really haven't been able to take advantage of this turbo since I'm not going to run a c16 tune on this motor. No need to grenade it at the track, I'd rather wait to build the motor. If I was a betting man, I would bet that the motor build will start very soon.

Thanks for the complements

Most of our customers that are going all out aren't dragging their cars, Mark. Nick, specifically, is a road course fiend and has no interest in going in a straight line

I had the gt-12 and the gt-14, only thing Nick had I didn't was headers. Umm how different are they? It's physically Imposible to compare those two turbo/set-ups with the current one, it's a joke how much faster this one is compared to those

Ya man this thing is massive, I will try to get better pictures soon. My car hasn't been washed in over a month lol. I need to clean her up, then take some real pictures. Ill see if I can get enough light down there to put the camera in there and take some decent pics so you can really see how massive the turbo is

The Gt35 has an external wastegate right?

Did you plumb the wastegate pipe back into the main exhaust or did you dump it to the atmosphere? hehe

A open wastegate scares old woman and sends squirrels running for cover as you drive by

Girly 38mm Wastegate :P

Not many people can give you a hard time John...as your car now is a real beast...But I love the fact that I still can

Hows the weather lookin for the race?
