    Everything that comes off the turbo and Block with a gasket, needs to be cleaned off with a razorblade, sandpaper etc. Any little piece will make it leak, the softline kit will make it easier to put on, but just dont throw it on because it will still leak due to old gasket material. As long as...

The more boost you hit, the more fuel gets dumped in the exhaust after you push the clutch in. I dont think it will hurt anything do you have a full exhaust with cat and a...
