Too much talk. Not enough testing!

We have one coming on Wednesday and it should be installed and tuned by the end of the week. AFIK it will be the first production unit in the USA.

I will leave it to the customer. Maybe he will want to post results.

Turbo Arrived
The turbo arrived at the shop today. I think that this is the first production unit in the US.

Are the ports on the hotside that the manifold feeds stock sized?
The compressor outlet tube looks much larger than the stocker on Tomei's site. Is it?

If you could do a side-by-side shoot with a IX turbo or stock-framed upgrade that would be great (the Tomei pics are small). Kudos to you for being the first to get this turbo.

Exciting News, once we get the Evo 8 here we'll take some side-by-side pics.

The compressor outlet pipe is larger than the stock but the junction to the first IC hose is the same size, in other words this pipe is a constant diameter whereas the stocker is somewhat flared out at the end to accept the hose.

Balrok- we'll get results up schnell wirkend!
