Also, just like some of the above threads ask, did u guys finally decide if the wastegate was going to be dumped back into the downpipe or no. I know you had changed your mind a couple of times. Anyways, can't wait to see those dyno #'s on friday. Keep up the good work.
Many people have answered it a few times - the wastegate is recirc in the downpipe.
Advantage of the pre order is to be one of the first to get the kits along w/ not having to put any cash up front to hold a spot.

Yeah for the most part lol...
10:30 now and I'm going back to the garage to finish the tC. I have orientation at a corporate office tomorrow for my manager spot so I'll be doing that from 6am to about 4pm, then back to the tC.
I only get a few hours of time on the car each day, and most of the stores are closed when I need something so things get delayed. I did finish the injectors today though. The cat-back part of the exhaust arrives tomorrow afternoon. All that's left for the kit is 2 exhaust bolts to be torqued and 2 vacuum lines to be installed (bov and wastegate). The car is ready to start already!
Bov AND Wastegate colors available are red, blue, silver, black, and purple.
I've been doing more than just a turbo kit on the tC so that doesn't help move things along either. I know I said it was going to be done last week, but I appreciate everyone being patient with me. Ok enough talk, back to the garage I go...

Hey guys...
Woozy... PM me your cell and I'll personally leave you a voicemail letting you know the results lol... Or email me your cell (better for me, joe@dezod.com).
Dynomyte... I did most of my corprate stuff today. I got tomorrow completely off from work so yes the dyno is still scheduled! Going to bolt up the new exhaust system right now, and also installing a turbo kit on a 2002 Civic EX lol...

judgeing from their other kits i think the price of this kit will not be 3,500 as some predicted but possibly 3,8000. they have kits for other cars quite similar to this one for around 3,800 i just hope thats not the case.
joe i have a question how would we be able to adjust boost with this kit? would the only way to adjust boost be by replaceing the springs in the wastegate??

Boost controller would be one way to adjust it but you could also definitely replace the spring in the wastegate, either way you would wanna have a boost controller involved. I would only wanna change the spring if you wanna run lower boost than what the kit is set for.
