Yea next mods for me will be a fuel pump, rebuilt injectors(440s) and an AFPR. Then I can turn the boost up and hopefully hit the 12s.

Well; shes all buttoned up, nothing is leaking and I only had a few parts leftover ;) .

And what would finishing one job be without creating another one? Yes, somewhere in the fray of removing and installing the turbo(s) 2 of the CPS got broken off. YAY!:love:

Nah, no upgrade just yet. I need my car for at least another year and with almost 160k on the clock I figure my turbo puts out enough for this tired old engine. I also want to try and hit the 12's before I upgrade the turbo.
You gonna be at the Skyline bbq on saturday? Hopefully me and a MKIV friend will make it down, as long as I get my CPS rewired by then.

unfortunatly no. my DSM friend called me up yesterday and was like "man you gotta get your car and go" but right now i'm in richmond and the car is in north VA so it would be a long drive to NOVA and then drive down to the cruze and then back to nova. kinda alot for me. you can bet i'll make it to the meets over the summer.

I cleaned up the garage today and snapped this pic of my old turbo. Nice, huh? The crack at the top of the WG goes all the way to the turbine.
