You can see where the piece broke off in the "T" fitting and now the piece is stuck in the motor.

Yeah I am hoping that I can "crush" the end of the brass that way I can get a grip on it. Then, hopefully it will come out easier. Before it was just spinning around the pipe.

Good Luck man - also dropping the mounts back out might give you more room.... but I think once you get a turn or two you should be good.

That happened to me during my install. I had to crimp the end and turn it to get it to budge. Mine began to bend at the engine though so I had to go easy before it broke off and I was screwed. Good luck

Alright guys since I havent posted a review of the turbo and my first impressions I thought I would. I havent tuned the car fully yet, because I will be working Kane and using his software. However, I am running the map from the dyno tune with MM. I am just using the stock wastegate from Greddy. And it pulls pretty hard. I would say it feels better than the TD06 at 9psi. The install was pretty straight forward. No fitment issues what so ever. To anyone that is looking for a Greddy upgrade I would say look no further than BNR. Bryan has great customer service, and has been there every step of the way answering all my questions. Soon as promised I will dyno it and show you guys what it performs like. Overall, I am very impressed with the turbo!

Just some quick videos. Others have been asking if they could hear the way the new turbo sounds. I havent been able to go WOT for 2 reasons, one is the tune is off at times, two I need to have the Ignition dwell settings changed. Hopefully soon I can post a WOT, and turn up the BOOST!

Well Phantom, I hope this gave you an idea as to what you can semi look forward to, because I told you I would record a video of the turbo spooling up, and the massive backfires I get.

Yes I lose traction in 1st and 2nd and this is like with 1/2 throttle and the stock wastegate. Which I think is around 6-7 PSI.
