I never had leak problems but I did have the bearings go bad in the blower.

How can you tell the bearings are going bad?

I never updated this. There was a leak and I got it fixed. Haven't had an issue since!

Not bad news for you. You have stock kit with stock pulley's, stock kit injectors, stock MAF Sensors. Your not running 12 lbs to 11 lbs of boost. The kit i gave you is not what i was running with it. Intake manifold is fine for what the kit is designed for, not what i was doing to it!

Huge difference buddy!

You will be fine, for those of us that always try to get the most out of our kits, we experience more issue. Always pushing it to the max. Hope you enjoy the power you'll get. Key is having a good installer that knows what there doing to get the most reliable set up.

Didn't mean to come off like I was "attacking" you. It was very frustrating to deal with at the time. It's been running very well since the leak was fixed!

Yes, I know.

I got the leak fixed. Then I was able to have some fun before putting it away for the winter. Posting on the forum wasn't on my mind at that time.

Took it to a car show this past Sunday and it was a blast to drive !
