Sorry to hear that Tweak......
I remember discussing this boost problem at lunch on Saturday
For photos of your car you can go to one of the many vendors that set up photo opportunities
PM me for details as i do not want to draw the attention of the internet police.
The photos look awesome
If it makes you feel better, i lost one of my headlights coming back on the trailer yesterday. And i ripped out my front bumper coming off the same trailer this morning.
So i too am in a shi**y mood.

no he didn't. he had the laptop riding shotgun with him and he was so worried about overheating that he did not even turn the laptop on! that is some serious carnage on that housing 
now just make sure you build it better than the last one. are you running 3mm seals or 2? let me know because i have some used but in really good conditon 2mm seals springs and corner seals and springs i can sell to you for a good price (1 million trillion
)
keep us posted

Sheesh dude, blew it already! This is why you get a boost controller and not rely on just wastegate springs alone.... And I see you still got IC pooched way out there >.> At least the wheels look good, though that supra block on the garage floor cant be too healthy.
