Larger turbo slip in the box? I think you should send it back.

for some reason, every time OTHER people have these types of jobs to do, it looks like a lot of FUN to me....

BUT, when I have to do brakes on my SVT, I get intimidated and say - "umm...next weekend".

That really does look like a lot of fun....

Is it done yet? If so, how's gearing now?! smile

Yeah, took about 16 hours total to do it. Would have taken less time, but we made like 16 runs to ACE Hardware to buy new bolts that I wanted.

Gearing is the exact same, as we only did a clutch, not gears. But let me tell you this, a 2600lb clutch makes a world of difference. Can't wait to hit this break in period and take her out on the street for some 5500 RPM 2 step stutter box launches!

Well, I just ordered my cams yesterday, and I am waiting for my FMIC to finish production, along with about another 4 grand in toys,(injectors, cam gears, external wastegate, 7cm exhaust housing, stainless o2 dump, new BOV, EGT guage, AFPR, and then tires, phew) then it is going in. My fuel system would not be able to keep up with that turbo yet, well for the boost I am gonna want to run (all I have is a new pump and 550cc injectors, going to 660's).
