EBC's are hella expensive, But I'd get an AVC-R if the price was right. Try using a ball and spring type controller, and not a bleed valve. -------------------- |

This is not true. At the very least you could explain why you feel that way. 4 word responses help no one on the board bro. This is all assuming a factory turbo motor. The engine requires boost to run because it is such a low compression, so i would reccomend at least 5 psi maybe a little less, -------------------- -Mike
