    Turbo is out and apart... Problem:
  3. boxpin
    Yep, got my stuff back.

    Rebuilding the turbo after my crop dusting event. I have been having BOV issues so I am switching to a Synapse Synchronic. I have been fighting compressor surge and believe this may have lead to the seal failure. So new BOV, billet wheel and anti-surge housing. I have not inspected the seal channel on the turbine wheel. If needed I will replace that as well.

    I often wondered about that.

    That is a 4 car garage you just cant see the rest. The sad part is that there is zero room for a car.

    An automotive shop with CLASS! I took my car in to get an alignment yesterday and this is what they put on the paperwork.

    Sorry man, I barely have time to work on my own car. Had to take time off work just to finish it. Have you looking into renting one? Costs about $40. I live 2 hours from you, would you drive all they way here and back to save $40?

    Almost back on the road. New clutch disc arrived and is true. Trans is back in and ready to go. Replacing the rack/pinion for a non-leaking version then button up the sub-frame with the new lower control arms w/powerflex bushings.

    Well somebody has got some explaining to do. Before everyone goes crazy I contacted them and they were in shock and asked me to sent it back of which they will correct the issue and get it back to me immediately.
  25. boxpin
    All right, things are coming back together. Picked up the flywheel. I had it stepped to give it some more clamping force. Kevlar disc this time. Replaced syncros in the new trans Swapped the quaife over... Does anyone have the torque spec for the ring gear??? and this last one if for 'VS Legend tha douche'..I caved, going back to steel.
