A boring walk around of the setup that I had for like 50 miles. lol Magnus SMIM, Punishment Racing FMIC, MVS o2 housing, ARP studs, stock bottom end 7 bolt, 1g TB, HKS SSQV, HKS cam gears, COMP 101200 cams, and a bunch of other crap I dont feel like typing.

Two MAFs ftw! Question bro, why did you switch to a different turbo setup?
The car must not have been boosting because of that preturbo exhaust leak at the manifold

@calcatchem Thanks for the words.
I still have a few things left before tuning. And yea, you’ll see me around CT toying around with the boosted guys.

@jjrock5 so which do you like better. On my next build i want to go bigger(as far as turbo) and right now im debating on which turbo to get. How that FpGreen, I wanted the fp Red and a holset of somesort. But if i cant make up my mind ill end up buying a gt30r of some sort

@Kenuwine24 Yea I ended up fixing all the small issues after the vid. I drove the car around for another 20 miles with this turbo before I bolted up a FP Green due to a bet. The HX35 pulled like a race horse and I definitely recommend it. I DEFINITELY recommend a proper oil feed and drain setup if you want to run it though. These things are VERY tempermental.
