I just put it in this morning and its not looking good. This one maybe faulty aswell im going to swap my turbo tomorrow with a buddies garret to see if the problems still the same. This turbo won't spin at idle and barely builds boost.

I pulled apart the newly rebuilt turbo last night and everything was on point so I reinstalled it. Turbo still isn't spinning at idle but the good news is I found that one of my charge pipes pulled off when I was installing the new turbo. Fixed that and then installed a new n75 thanks to Johnny Tsunami and I'm getting the right boost pressure now. Now its time for software

Do yourself a favor and buy maestro and get a legit tune to get the most out of your setup. Not some generic software flash.

What I planned on doing from the start of this build

. How could I deny myself launch control and no lift shift? Plus I've got a water/meth setup that I'll need to tune for.

Alright good

I was affraid you were gonna do all this work and end up with a basic uni flash or something.

Cant wait to see this!

Good stuff

Well I'm sick of trying to keep this car under 7psi so I'm going to install a vr6 maf and dial back the fuel about 15-25%. Cut timing to avoid knock and see if I can get it good enough so the plugs don't fowl.

Scratch that idea... Vtune simply won't give me the flexibility to get this car to run smoothly even with the vr6 maf. I'll wait for the software which will be coming soooooon.

Monday night I'll be installing the resistors and getting this thing street legal. Maybe I'll try and take off to stop over for cruise night this coming week.

Update: Look what Al@pagparts sent me literally one day after I ordered it. Arnold has been more then helpfull and went out of his way, on his own time to sent me the software I needed, excellent customer service.

It took me almost an hour to update my drivers and windows software in order to connect through the data link.

I just emailed Eurodyne with the data taken from my ecu and now its time to wait for the suitable flash for my ecu. Hopefully Chris has time to send me the flash tomorrow.

I'll let you guys know what happens next...
