This thing is a kick in the pants to drive, I love it. AFR's were pretty lean but ran solid. New clutch and solve the traction issues, you'll have one mean car.

Re: Finally gave in (HX-35 DA Build thread)
----!! I can't seem to win with this turbo. Got it back from Blaast, got a Tial wastegate and all was running well. Took it out tonight and got pulled by the police. Talked my way out of it and went to a new area. Everything was running good then the ------ exhaust housing loosened up on the turbo.... I'm praying the wheel didnt make contact but that's probably not my luck. I'll tear it out tomorrow and check it out.

If that uses bolt to secure the housings, do what OEM's do. Use some sheet metal strips to lock the bolts down. You use them like a washer (each covers 2 bolts & can't twist), then you fold the edges up around the bolts. Look at the chevy v8 cam locks to get an idea.
