I'm not actually sure which turbo is on it. Supposed to be a 2554, but i've never felt a 2554 hit like this and pull like ****ing crazy like this on the top end. It's easily as gnarly as FM's shop car "Igor" is, and this is only running 12-13psi right now.
I don't even have VICS hooked up yet. Gonna be straight up stupid. If it IS a 2554, i want to see what it does if i spike it to 20psi in midrange.

Yes. You still have my number? Text me, baby.
By the way, i'm told the MSM is a monster at 16psi and 5-8 degrees more timing across the board. Dude is reconsidering building it because it kicks like a damn mule and is breaking traction at the top of 3rd gear.
Dat bay. Cute little baby turbo.

the 90 degree angles look like dick, it almost seems like something you'd see on some Honda forum except it's not made out of PVC piping.
also, yeah, the valve being so far away from the cold pipe seems super dumb, though it's probably like that because of the way the valve is shaped. only recirc valve I can think of that vents in the same direction (? plane? four hours of sleep means I don't know what word I want here) as the flange is one of those weirdo TiALs.sigpic
