problem is the entire motor was built for the turbo, it's 8.5/1 compression so without the turbo it sucks!!

Thats what you get when you want a custom one off system. Can't really complain when I get 290WHP and 319TQ at 12.5lbs of boost!!

Why aren't the pics showing?????????????????????

You can't have picture links (Or any other type of links) in the Welcome forum (This is to stop all the spambots)

Feel free to post your pictures in the other forums as appropriate :) (I'd like to see what a $6K custom turbo system looks like myself actually)
