Well I got everything running and took the car out for a little drive.
No leaks (amazingly) and the cheap ebay turbo hasn't exploded (yet)
So I haven't gotten the F-tune flywheel and clutch in yet, and the stock clutch is totally useless. I can't get a feel for the car because the clutch won't hold enough to really build boost.
Now I did get it to cooperate only once, hit about 25lbs of boost and she was pulling very nicely, followed by a big POP and me shitting my pants, but it was just a silicone boot that popped.
So I need to get the exhaust done properly (currently a cobble-job) and get this flywheel and clutch in so that I can really feel the power. Also thinking that I'd benefit from a proper turbo as well.
Stay tuned...
