Not giving up on the Xb just really not as interested anymore. Will still boost it though. I actually wanted gslse or gts but found neither at a reasonable price.
I'm trying to get the sr5 back on the street before the Pan American nationals at Atco(big rotary/import Pr Vs Usa drag races). Would love to see a rotary suzuki samurai havn't seen one in a while.

Well, sorry to say but my TT kit is a complete fail!!!!!! Waited almost a year for parts that did not fit and intercooler pipes full of metal shavings. No excuse for this not after such a long wait. My ebay kit on my old civic was better quality than this. Details and pics will be uploaded soon. I will be trying to sell as much as I can local, Fic,550 pnp injectors, manifold, dp all I have for a nice low egay price, that were these kits should be!!!!!!!

Here are the pics:

Compressor inlet had to be grinded to fit but the no room for intake or filter.




wastegate hits valvecover



DP does not align with s-pipe and to far off to pull together.




Its obvious the manifold is to blame but man I feel like such a idiot, had nothing to say to my friends who took time out to give a hand after they been telling me since 8 months ago I should have got my money back.

I should have took pics of the intercooler pipes, they were full of shavings. I ran a bore brush and a piece of towel on a string and cleaned them out. I dunno I gotta plan my next move carefully, I'm so dissapointed I have a hedache.

I can make it work but mehh, I about had it for today.

Geez...that sucks. It looks like you got a tC manifold instead of an xB one. Honestly, you should get a full refund for this...

The flange on the manifold is off by a bit causing the issue, I can make it work it is just a pain that after waiting almost a year I have to sit here and start modifying ____. I tried to defend TT but this is crazy and just proves what everyone else was "crying about" seems to be true. Sorry but want nothing to have to do with this company anymore, i will just cut my loss and work with what I got.

On another note I have made some headway with my ae86, i dont know if you ever heard a rotary 2 stepping but man my neighbors thought their was shoot out at my house yesterday(set at 6000 rpm). Any how the rotary will be getting a bridgeport done along with rebuild and the car is getting ford rear end and off to the body shop in a few days.

As for the XB maybe next week I gotta figure out what I wanna do with the manifold.

No not yet, I gotta get over my frustration. I kinda worried if I send this back will it be another year till I get another manifold back. Honestly i'm still pondering what to do.
