Exactly where my head went. Great minds think alike. Ordered already and hoping for delivery next week from UMW (Kevin). Adding power and more importantly low end torque. Kevin claims 500hp at the wheels. Please don't tell my wife!

There wasn't any huge noise, just a sudden drop in power and zero boost pressure. I crawled back to the pits from the bottom of the back straight, loaded the trailer and called it a day. Another day that I was thankful for having a trailer. This was a good investment.

Ouch at least it was just the turbo's, any idea how long you will be off track? Finally got the rest of my parts in today can start the fun of putting it back together. Going to miss the BMW event, shooting for the UCR event in Sept.

Jeez Mark, not sure whether to say sorry or congrats on the upgrade! Glad it wasn't worse, and at least you got most of the day in. See you trackside soon.

I don't have a firm eta on the new units, but I hope to have them flown up next week. I'll be lucky to have them in time for Trillium. My back up plan is to use my DD M3 if the Turbo is not fixed in time. Kevin from UMW seems to think it may have over spun, but the big question is why. Still a mystery...
