Wideband sensor needs to be after the turbo, the EGT would be better closer to the head.

Yep, this is before the turbo and might be causing my slower than normal spool up.

So you think it's worth finding a replacement and re-installing one?

haha well as long as it fixes that annoying exhaust leak, i'll be happy.

Not to mention with the new clutch i'll be able to get full boost! Not the sissy 2-3psi i was getting with the toasted one.

dident really get a chance to see where exactly..

the seafoam really helped the car idle a little better as well..
