I'm in Clayton which is about 25 min east of Cary.

Looks like quite a few Triangle area people on here.

Good luck with the build.

Well i got some maybe bad, maybe not so bad news. Ive had a vac/boost gauge installed on my car for 2 weeks. For the past week the it was reading 15 in hc and moving rapidly with a very low idle once it was warmed up. Checked my oil today(just changed it) and its black, with a nice smell of gas. Not going to jump to any conclusions but i need to do a leak down test to make sure my rings are still good. For now turbo is on hold.

going to run a compression test tonight after work. Hopefully i see some good numbers.

sorry i havent been on in a while. been busy with school. compression ran 150 across all cylinders. And i solved my fuel problem. Put a fuel fitting i got at the parts store on the rail and im running directly off the aftermarket reulator. Running 20psi and it feels better then stock. Keep in mind i do have the 315cc injectors in. Stock fuel pressure is 35-40 psi
