what problems are you having? If it is idling funny and overboosting you should sell it right away to me. 8-9k I will take that ticking time bomb off your hands.

could be any of the pulleys adding to much load, try turning on each system on one at a time and which makes the greatest difference
you may simply just have to up the idle speed
and don't worry about the smoke

oh and $9K is not totally off base depending on mileage and condition of car, that's what mine sold for

Do not buy from this guy. He will screw you like a $2 *****.

I will be installing the turbo kit in the next couple of weeks. Still need the S5 hotside and mani?

Or a $200 hookerbot. Hell yeah i want that damn thing, hook me up!! If you want some assistance with that kit let me know, where are you doing the work by the way? I cant remember if you have a garage or if you were doing it somewhere else.

BJ, hows that thing spinning? did it blow up on you yet?
