I have no problem with mine, but his has problems.... I have the same setup as him but for some reason mine runs better then his and it pulls way harder then his. The funny part is that I don't even have an FMU, Fuel Regulator, fuel pump, and no upgrade injectors. Just straight drop in and retarded my timing about 2-4 degrees. I did the same to his and it still runs weak.

so you dont have any kind of tuning other then retarding the timing?? umn sounds like a nice way to blow your motor to me.

agreed.
you need some injectors, at least 390s.
fuel pump. maybe a walbro 190 or 255.
ecu chipped or even an fmu, or afc hack whould be better than nothing.
get a better clutch than oem.

these are the most vital items on your turbo kit. getting it tuned properly is the key. if you dont, please send me pics of your blown engine so we can show people how not to do a turbo kit.
