Default Oh happy day. Tial installed finally.

What a freaking difference. This is one of those times that begs "why did I wait so long". The on ramp to work will never be the same. I, obviously, had to adjust the boost a little but am now peaking at 17psi and the car is transformed. Coming to a dyno near you....

Now I need an EBC to control it all.

I have an Apex-I AVC-R for sale if you're interested. Another lister was supposed to pick it up but I haven't got a confirmation from him. $310 shipped.

I wish I could right now but I have a few priorities first. Maybe in a month or so if no one else picks it up.

I'm waiting on mine from SFR. Apart from getting the old WG out, how hard was the install?
What kind of hoses did you use? I've got the Black **** from Lindsey and they included som hoses that look kind of thin. There were no clamps included.

Not bad overall.

I loosened the WG inlet pipe to make things easier. My WG was not connected to hanger which made life a lot easier. I'm still using the CV so I used the stock line but you should use what Lindsey included with their MBC. I used the clamp that was holding the ling to the CV and zip-tied the line to the WG.

During the instal, I found that it was pretty easy to to remove the WG outlet pipe as well. I attached the Tial to it and then mated the WG to the inlet pipe. I kept all the connections loose until everything was placed and then tightened them down.

How dare you stay on topic! I ban you to OT...

I used the high temp (blue bottle but red liquid) locktite. I'm going to run it for a few days before rechecking the torques.
