That (pwwatkins) looks like the old version of the 35/40 to me? If you look at the pic, it looks alot further forward then where the air pump would be.

If I take it out this weekend I can try to get you a sound clip. However, more than likely I'm tearing into it this weekend to prep for paint and other stuff I'm doing this fall/winter so I may not be able to do either.

lol mines daily driver, it handles the rain alright, so low 11's on the a/f for 15 psi, is that standard or does it change for different turbo settups? im trying to learn about tuning a bit so i dont have to take it to a shop everytime i want to mess with boost settings (when i finally get my boost sylonoids for my pfc) and if one of the guys from aspec can get ahold of me as soon as just the turbos become available thatd be great, im in no hurry

Besides considering it's rained here for like 2 weeks straight I haven't had too many chances to drive it lately.

! Just need to finish a few little things and get it tuned. Hits the frame? DAMN, dude i thought mine was far up. That doesn't sound right to me either. You could always come over and check my car out for reference purposes. Just shoot me a PM if you want to do so. Later.
