Man, it took me forever to figure out what the hell I was suppost to be looking at in the pic, then when someone said what it was I automatically seen it ;). I call BS until I see interior pics and engine bay pics.

Again, pull your codes and post what are comming up :3d_frown:. You only need a paper clip, a pencil, and a piece of paper to do this.

I know, I was too. Gotta love guessing at the hidden meaning behind people's posts on the internetz ;).

No probs ;). How long have you been running on those studs w/o retorque? Driving preference and boost setting?

Are you repacking the bearings or replacing with new ones?

Mad props to you sir, great setup, very clean, not too over-the-top. Good color matching too ;).

Whatever it was that they were tripping on when they decided to do this comparison... I want some ;).

More around after 4-5 heat cycles preferrably, this is with studs of course. If you haven't done it yet, then hop to it asap.

LOL, you don't have to call me sir, dude or shithead work better for me ;).

That's another reason why I like ARP studs. If you torque them correctly after your final pass, then your retorque after heat cycling, you can use them again and again as long as they aren't physically damaged (checking for stretch is still a great thing to do though that most people will...

Best way to diagnose the problem of your car is to check for codes, do that first from now on before you post a tech question like this please. ;)

Just as long as you leave like 1mm on the exhaust ports on the head (reversion dam) you should be fine right?

I would look into increasing the air flow of the head and it's manifolds (porting) first. This should help a little with spool, plus it's free, but you would have to take the head off to do it :(. Maybe start with gasket matching the manifolds and see what type of gains you get from that).

Wow, such a simple thing causes shit like this to happen doesn't it? Well, at least you are looking into fixing other stuff on it now ;). So I guess you are keeping the car?

QFT Get rid of the light show bud, buy a wideband if you are worried about your A/F's.

What is this, "new jdm 7mgte" that you speak of?

A BOSS series turbo from Suprasport.com, something like this: http://www.suprasport.com/BOSS-Series-Turbo_p_216-756.html

^ Sounds like something you'd see around here ;).

I would definitely put it in there before you go NA-T that way you can break the clutch in first ;).
