Here answer my question first, and then I'll answer yours, trust me, they are of the same difficulty so don't worry.


What is the meaning of life?

be more specific about your setup and you'll get an answer

It's actually a bit of both, I guess, hehe, since when they were asking they said, what's the meaning of life, what's the answer to the ultimate question? It depends on how you want to look at it hehe.

good luck trying to run 5.5psi on the stock turbo with an 80mm downpipe and an intake. The tiny stock waste gate won't be able to keep boost that low with the intake and exhaust freed up.
