its not, but you wont flow that much anyway. i guess it would be nice not to bottle neck anywhere but it should be fine for now.

 

The engine is being rebuilt now, once it gets here i will do the engine/turbo install

 

^ "Like"

 

Does anyone have an extra AUX port block off plate?

 

Yup I think so... didn't use mine would have to take a gander in the garge for it...

 

What turbo upgrade did you go with ? Anything bigger than stock and you shouldn't really fit this .

 

I didn't go bigger. Yet. Thanks!!

 

You guys with upgraded turbos are blockin Aux port off? Thought it was better to have the plate with stock greddy and remove it for larger turbos?

Edit: NVM mis-read your post Brett

 

 

Don't use the block-off plate, no matter what turbo you are using.
If you need it blocked (which would be discovered during tuning), you simply turn the AUX port off in the PCM by setting its opening point out of range.

 

^ Good to know I'm still clinging on to abit of sanity.... This is what I thought I always knew haha

 

good point - I have noticed that guys fitting this often end up with boost leaks as well .

 

Well ****, then one less thing to worry about

What did you end up getting done on the turbo 9k?

 

Anyone in "Overboosted Overlords Club" live in or close to Minnesota, that is willing to receive a guest? We're going via Chicago, so that might be an alternative as well.

I'm from Norway and gonna visit some relatives in Fergus Falls for 3.5 weeks. I've been VERY keen to mod my car to FI, but would really like to try one first.

 

Kane! time to throw me on the list

*Claps* *looks at date* Finally

 

I waited for nice weather to install

 

Installed and started my Greddy kit over the weekend. I finished the install last night and have driven about 40 miles on it so far. Mods:Fix#2, Apexi BOV, Extreme PSI couplers and T-clamps, Agency Power midpipe and catback, and Cobb AP with MM base tune. Still need to take some logs.




Edit* This popped my boost cherry and now I'm hooked
