It acts as a buffer, I deal with a few(close your ears) ebay vendors and sometimes u get absolute junk and they dont honor their warranties or policies listed on their page when selling the item. I contact them first and try to work it out, and if that doesnt work or they dont respond. They can deal with a chargeback.

I can say his method works and that machine shop guy advice and experience was right too!!!

All cilinders are reading 140 now


That is very interesting, I'm tempted to do this now myself. Except it is hard to drive hard when you have a brand new clutch disk that your trying not to glaze.

The website definitely sucks though

I used my CC, however, by doing this, you are againts paypal and not the one that received money so I will automatically freeze my paypal account until everything is solved and this takes the less 1 month, been there once before and it's not a good option as at the end, paypal always gets out of trouble with all of their contracts they have and you agreed when signing with them.

And second point is, as this was NOT sell through a legal auction like ebay, paypal will wash their hands pretty easy saying that I received the item and they can not verify it's condition, this is written too on their policies. I should have done this during the first 45 days but again, I trusted and that was my mistake.

I have a 9lb fidenza flywheel and I'm using a GT2860RS "The Disco Potato" with turbine A/R 0.86

Don't forget I am on C1 cams, if you are using stock cams they help you spool faster

Also my greddy boost controller reacts pretty well and don't let psi spikes come into the game, this makes it seem to spool slower

With this turbo I can get 350 hps which are more than enough for me as I want to keep my car as a daily driven car. Now at 10 psi I can't get good traction on 1st, 2nd and most of 3rd gear and I am using Potenzas RE-11
