Yeah, I talked to Nico and everybody's turbos are in. Supposedly the full lot. Some gt40r's suppossedly had some minor changes to the turbine housing, necessatating a minor change to the down pipe. I was told that they should have most of the kits out by the end of the week.

oh ****, sorry. That was what I was told. I thought it seemed a little to good to be true. Well, at least they are starting to arrive. Do you have a list of where everybody falls in line that you could send us. I imagine it is a first in first out deal.

It shouldn't be much longer guys...

Hey, I wasn't the first to say it. Look at GhostRx7's post a couple of post prior to mine. He should be last. I'm second to last

To those that have received their kits, have you installed them yet? Any new numbers?

Mine is on and I have a dyno session set for Monday if all goes well. I have a vac leak and I am going back over the ignition to double check that. Also still waiting on piping but the welder said 1-2 days when I bring my car in. I have some rigged up piping on there now but can not tune it like that.. Other than that the installation was not bad and Sean was a HUGE help for all my questions. It was so nice to have someone to call/ email for questions... I can say that that turbo spins like crazy!! I turn my car off get out open hood and can listen to it spin for another 10 seconds or so...Turbo sit's just like Sean said, very low and back My car is a little loader but not near what I expected so I might stick on the JIC Ti exhaust tonight... I will post a thread of pics and all info as soon as I am finished...
