As for the radiator, it works and was real cheap.

So I'll have to make some custome ones. Other then that, couldn't beat it for the price!

I've gotten some pointers online about my low power issue. I'm going to be trying a few things today and seeing how it works.
whats ment by the low power issues?

The car just felt real weak. It felt slower then it was with the old setup, just down on power. I got a lot of advice from some of the better tuners, and mainly just changed the timing a bit, then cranked up the boost. Now she rips! I'll get some videos up next week when the car is back up and running, hopefully without the boost leaks.

hyundai's valve covers are stronger they have more webbing and are less prone too cracking. mitsu valve cover crack when you tighten them down.
