i got the turbo is under 10 days :) very good service. i had a problem with my wastegate.. all is well now and i'll be heading back for some numbers.

fyi.. i did 380rwhp/420rwtq with a faulty wastegate and 9.9 AFR's (18psi)

so just imagine how this will be with more boost and a working wastegate :)

just cause its BRAND NEW doesnt mean it wont have problems. SP came across a similar problem back in the day as well and it just needed minor wg porting and the arm to be bent slightly. Thats what happens when new products come onto the market. Nothing wrong with that. I'd expect it myself if I bought something brand new!

here is the deal with the wastegate. i'm running the GTS cover and SS had to design the new bracket for the wastegate. when everything was mocked up it all seemed to be well. well the wastegate needed about a 1/4 more inch of tension on it, cause in the upper rpms it was fluttering and not holding boost.

we identified the problem and SS sent me a new actuator. they are on top of the problem and all is well

customer service is still top notch and they didn't blow me off and leave me hanging.

new numbers will come next weeek.
