What about larger turbines taking longer to spool up? Back in the day that was an issue, mebbe technology has improved that situation, I dunno.

Yes, Turbo technology has been greatly enhanced! Turbo lag is a thing of the past. I will also be running a larger displacement in the end and possibly even bigger turbos depending on how these handle the larger 4.5L displacement. anywho back on topic... Lou I wanna see more pics bro! and a video and I wanna ride in it too!!!!

Jon@Altered: I loved my CA also. With the stock T25, it made no sense to shift after 6000 RPM, but I did anyway. When I installed the 2871, it really came alive. I kinda miss it though.

</off topic>

I am curious how the 2.5" exhaust will pan out in the grand scheme of things. Especially since I went with the BERK GB#2. You are the man Lou. I may be following in your footsteps if the exhaust works out with your setup.

Hey everyone,

I have a video of the car breathing again for the first time with the new turbos! However, Lou, the video does have shots of your car with the license plate visible. Are you ok with me posting this up? I didn't have time to yank the plate off before I shot the video...


The car is on it's initial test drive right now after the ECU Flash, just to make sure everything is functioning properly. Once it's back, it should be ready to load up on the dyno for a tuning session!

You did make sure to take out a new life insurance policy Fusz? I would hate for the car to get a scratch and you have a heart attack buddy =)
