OMFG OMFG UPDATE***

Got my car back today after the Greddy Fest here in SoCal.

Drives like a stock champ with a stage 4 clutch and light flywheel haha. My header and intake have been taken off to sell to a club member so that I can pay for some of the turbo stuff.

Now to get the old head off the old engine...might be able to sell that?

HRMMM...bleh, glad I have my car. Now to order my Blue Racer gauges...

Going to reboost it? Tell dezod to ship you a different kit this time.

I am going to reboost it.

I hope there is nothing wrong with the kit. Joe is going to be sending me a new downpipe since the one I got had severe fitment issues.

Fitment issues to the point that we had to use 4 C clamps to get it to barely align the first time and it still had a small gap in it.

So after many trials and tribulations I will NOT be reinstalling the kit.

That is my final decision on that and I will be getting rid of the car. I will be going with the Z instead and just keeping it the way it is. I am just afraid that something like this might happen again with boost and there is a chance it always will.

It is not worth it to me to have that in the back of my head while I want to drive my car hard. Upgrading to a new platform is a better idea to me.

The kit and the car are for sale now. I have the new engine in it with a new clutch and flywheel and it is running great. Corner 3 Garage did a great job with the install. Props to them

Well then...Update completed.
