Yup! No coolant or exhaust leaks. Runs fine on 91. We're working on the 93 map, boost cutoff at WOT around 5500 rpm. PSI was spiking at 14 which is too much for stock.

Z is up and running, finally. Did 1900+ miles to SC the other week and she did really well. 6870 turbo performs really, really well .

The new Lexus I bought came with a broken windshield, thankfully
Still waiting for them to call me to schedule the replacement.

He gets excited when I hit the off ramp near the house. He starts whining and looking out the window.
