    Square tooth Vs. round???

    Dyno graphs

    I run my source off of the turbo also. the hose length between the turbo and valve is like 6-8 inches, and between the valve and the wastegate is like 8-10 inches. so its not exactly a long amount. the reason I think the boost spikes, is because the spring holds everything closed until the set...

    Stupid guy...

    I sure as hell hope you don't think your 2.3 is a full frame car, because unless you have full length subframes your not even close to a full frame car, actually VERY far from a full frame car.

    Three words you never want to hear...unless you are a mechanic
