No luck, extremelly happy with the multiple transactions. 9k if you would like please create your own thread or use someone else's thread, I would prefer to keep this thread about "my" build. Not a good guy bad guy. On another note I also wanted to express how happy I have been with Bretspeed tuning

everyone still has personal lives outside the forums.
From time to time we have to take a break from our hobbies and take care of other matters.

How would this turbo keep up in the low end with the renesis compared with greddy bnr upgrade? It seems to be maybe a bit oversized for useable power in the lower rpms?

As konig said ...this turbo spools up very well , almost as good as a stock greddy !

Generally speaking the life's we lead that allow us to afford these kits. Mean we have very little spare time and yes mine is still on the carlift.

This thread has got me excited. I've beendrooling over this turbo kit for the past few weeks and this thread has put me over the edge; this is the turbo kit I've been looking for.

The only thing more dangerous than texting and driving is trying to hand video your own boost runs

I forgot that you were helping with the tuning. Pretty low boost numbers in that clip ...
