ebay sells 3.63 psi springs... for check valves i got 5 for $3 at petsmart. and the hose ---- at petsmart is like $3 as well. anyone know how to get the tube to fit in the map sensor hole without stuffing it in it.

I don't get it ... why spend money on turbo if you're going to run it on 3psi (for me its pointless)

it may seem pointless but to sum1 with low income and no job it kinda makes sense, its only gonna be temporary until it can be chipped and tuned.
