Put the car on the dyno after replacing the wastegate diaphram and after a couple pulls it was evident the motor was hurt during the boost spikes. We did a compression test to confirm the rear rotor was victim of the leaky wastegate diaphram.
RIP 13B-RE
The 13b-RE will now be fully built with hyuuuuuge ports and all. but in the meantime.....ie with a day and a half to spare we had to make quick work.
So we found a JDM 13b-REW and DE-SWAPPED the car to produce
AT 11 PSI!!
we even had time to run the to tag office and order his prestige tag "1337 FD"

The car is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo much fun to drive!!!!
My girlfriend loves it too!!
hahaha ^_^
It's got 235's all the way around right now, which are way too skinny to be driving her as she should be driven...
But I've got my Works Emotion XD9's back in San Diego, and I'll run some 275's in the rear to help keep traction.
Here's a dyno video from yesterday!!

Not bad for 11psi, right?
