Leaking oil from the feed lines is not something that you should ignore. When the turbos end up suffering from oil starvation it wont seem normal at all. Make W1 fix it. Do the turbos have any shaft play at this point?

slowZster, you are no-longer BOOST, but "LEAKS". Please update your sig accordingly. Thank you.

We will also allow the spelling "LEAKZ", as it is more urban and edgy.

Yes, that is a supported configuration.

yup, tt install, fuel return system, meth, clutch, flywheel, injectors, all cooling mods, and a tune on the utec. I have a really strong quote from W1 as well in regards to a built motor (top and bottom end). As soon as funds allow I will be doing that, and they will fix the lines at the same time.

Go stock, it's fast enough. Too dangerous to have a modified car. I wouldn't modify.

hopefully the turbo makes it that long. Have you checked shaft play?

To check shaft play you grab the nut in from of the compressor wheel and try to wiggle it back and forth and then in and out. Alot of shaft play will lead to your turbos becoming unusable.

If there's one thing SlowZster likes, it's grabbing nuts.

I thought he liked sac lunches, especially after you run around the block to warm it up first.

Really? And who might you be again? And what was your quote for? :P

If you're who I think you are, you got a APS Tuner Kit and we did an Xtreme kit... Or are you saying you got your Tuner Kit and installed for $6k? Wait, weren't you the guy who wanted the TT kit installed at the same time we were already committed to another customer?

Actually, as I recalled, you said World One would install it for you for $2k and I said $3k is what we charged, and we take a full 2 weeks (we do things by the numbers, slowly) to finish the swap. Not sure how we were $3k more expensive, even if we included tuning on our in house dyno...

Curious...

Bob are you saying you would like to work on a VQ cause I have one that needs some boost lovin!

On a side note if it was Drew that got a quote I'm sure he got it backwards and went with the shop that charged more actually... I've seen some of the receipts from his cars and he loves to spend money.
