Marvelspeed built it.. previous owner lost a seal.. Kevin rebuilt it again I believe Marvelspeed did the 3mm seals in it.. Kevin did the street port and replaced the one bad seal that cracked.

Scott - the boost sensor goes to the nipple below the BAC. I just don't have it in because I'm leaving that area open until the turbo gets here

Spraintz - I'll like my s5 much more when it's on the road again I miss driving the car for all the money i'm investing
