Spent the past week redoing the whole thing. New hotside + exhaust and now without pieces of crap in the turbine.

I only limped it around the block last night because it was wet out, dark, dont trust the brakes yet (abs delete), etc etc. But so far it seems to run MUCH better.

No glowing manifolds, boost comes on instantly, snaps right to my wastegate spring setting, sounds much better, responds to tuning adjustments better (idle so far at least)

Also redid my crank trigger. Its now much cleaner. Timing dialed right in where I wanted it.

I hope to get out and drive it some after work today.

Well hell I don't know at this point.
Yesterday I saw as high as 14 psi but it felt like a turd. First night it ran great. I am getting so sick of this.
