    My first 7mgte build

    a 60-1 does not provide you with that much more hp than what a 57 will do. and it does not last even lose to as long as a 57. there are vendors who used to sell the 60-1 but stopped because of its unreliability. if you max it out sure you will get above 400 but for how long? any upgraded ct...

    My first 7mgte build

    no ct will get you to 450. 400 yes but maxing it out which is not a good thing. maybe look into the sp61 bolt on turbo. will get you there easy and then some and will mate to the ct exhaust. every thing else looks pretty good but i would add a afpr and a wideband.

    Should i buy this motor?

    tranys that bolt to a 7m

    just the w58 and r154. why? whats better than a r154 other than a v160 which would be very costly.

    if its that piece iirc is comes with the tb. maybe go to the junkyards and get one for like 10bux. or go to the yards and pull the tb apart and pocket it.

    Quick question on clutch install

    you dont have to. i have done it both ways. just remove the trans mounts and the trans will clear the exhaust. but it is easier to remove the exhaust.

    Open turbo: mistake or good thinking?

    do it and then take pics of the aftermath PLEASE. but seriously why? why not just keep the exhaust on till you can actually afford a real one.

    reviews on knock-off turbo xs rfl bov

    no compressor surge is good for the turbo. if the turbo flutters you have surge and thats not good as the air is going backwards. even on autos the bov still opens. for less time yes but then it also keeps the boost during shifts. why be cheap with something important and why be cheap at...
