Please do not go to that for technical tips

Stick with WI & run a water to air IC, for killer track performance run an ice/water slurry, you will have another 10%+ more power (for same boost conditions) over any air to air set up and the motor will be more tolerant to detonation due to the much lower charge temp.

How is your car going witht he new turbo?

It is running ok , but needs to be tuned , I may do so tomorrow , TUESDAY . I thaught those guys said it would be lazy and too laggy for the street ? , so far it is behaving just like the T70 , compressor spins at idle giving lots of positive pressure (damn WI nozzle fell out, have to re-tap the houe ) , I am presently untuned and very rich and I get 5psi by 4500rpm (with a 1/4 " hole in my intake pipe !) after lots of stumbles and "back fireing " by gently mashing down on the gas , the POWER of that turbo can already be felt as my DIFF. is already complaining everytime I change gears!!!. Will post results and pics soon!!.
