Probably NOT!!! As Sean has decided not to return emails or Phone Calls for the past Month?
All in all it was probably made by sean, because he does good work.
Sean, I know your busy with the new shop and all, but please get back to me.

Good to see another person running the 42. modrx7 Sean is almost always busy, and I don't think calling him out on the forum is the right way to go about things, try pming him or let him know it's very urgent. Just my thoughts.

Matt, did you not want the ball bearing version of that turbo?

I have been doing research on that turbo and I have found out that ball bearing will not help spool by that much.
I am running two Nippondenso pumps so I will find out if I have enough fuel.
I bought that turbo from Boostedsystems.com. That dude there was cool and gave me a hell of a deal. The turbo is on a small frame i.e. To4. It has a 1.15 turbine side. My friend designed that manifold and will be selling them soon. It is equal length also.

AZ'sFastFD3S: Very nice man. Can't wait to see what kind of numbers you put down. I am still very interested in going for a GT42R instead of a GT42. Keep up the good work man, your car looks fantastic.

OK, you said you have two nippo pumps... what about your fuel lines, going and return size? Stock is no good for 500 rwhp, and you'll be maxing out those injectors. It's not worth it just buy bigger primaries like 850's.

Manifold was not done by me. It will be interesting to see the response of it. As for not reponding Edan. Your on a long list of those not responded to. I have more than my hands full trying to move and stay somewhat functional all at the same time. You and others will hear from me tomorrow. When I planned on doing some catching up.
