    Turbo lag is way uncool!

    Yes we need more info. If you are running some obnoxious 1.15 a/r rear housing, then yes you won't ever get it to spool like you want it to. Also, the "tuner" tells you 10psi at 5k rpms. When did it make that 10psi? Or is it only making 10psi the whole run? Tell your tuner guy to...

    Fidanza positives and negatives.

    Mine chatters like mad. Im running a Unorthodox Alum FW, 6 puck unsprung disc, and an aluminum drive shaft. If you don't give it some gas, and try and drive it like a stock clutch, the damn thing chatters like mad.

    Questions about the ISC

    Jeff what Im wondering is what that little diaphragm does under the isc. It actually looks like a check valve. Reason asking is I am building a FFIM to end all FFIM (well except for Rons and Grants). I need to know where and how to rout the isc.

    Fidanza positives and negatives.

    Fidanza / clutch masters (same FW) are the biggest POS flywheel ever made. I went through 5 of them before I gave up and got an Unorthodox one. Why 5? THEY DON'T FIT. Most of them aren't machined right.

    16psi is so much fun!

    Thanks guys! It is kinda wierd though... how 16psi spools. At first you see the little honda or camaro get the jump and your brains first instinct is "oh sh!t". Then boost kicks in and you litterally walk away.

    leaking oil from inside the engine??

    Sounds to me like your mechanic sucks. A blown oil seal on the front of the turbo will fill the intake with oil. To find out where the leak is if it is internal, do a leak down test not a compression test. Air will either exit the valves, rings, or through the head back into the radiator.

    So me and my girl were on our way to the movies tonight. This chick pulls up in a civic si, with all the little bling bling gauges and a monsterious indi-glo tach you could immagine. The car was actually nicely done except for the inside of it with all the glow... So not pushing any...

    Questions about the ISC

    Can it see boost or will it self destruct? Is the little poppit pinched between it and the mani there to prevent boost to the ISC? Little help here... Is there a way around not running an isc?
