I would rather run that K's racing manifold on ebay over that. I'm surprised you're pulling good vacuum.
Keep your eye on oil level man. You are risking more than just the turbo with an oil leak. Keep in mind they need proper lubrication spinning at like 150,000rpm. I would buy a new oil line kit and try a different oil pressure gauge. On my DE's I would see at least 60-65psi in the upper revs. ~15-25psi at idle. If you are still seeing 0-12psi I would not run it.
ok man, i def dont want to loose my motor.
so you once had an itb setup??
so why did you swap from it?
i love mine but i have NOT touched that part of the car since it was last tuned.
funny about the vacuum though.
if you watch my photobucket video of me going from 2nd gear-4th. my vacuum never went below a -15/-17. and i was boosting 13psi just perfect.
this was the second day i had the car its post # 39
