I've had other people sign for my packages, and never come off of them.

I've had the deliveryman forge my name, or once be stupid enough to sign for a package as "F. Rontdoor"

Shipping companies suck, insinuations that WOT is a liar are not justified.

anyways, awesome job. I hope you hit 400 with it.

With the boost he plans on running, he could easily ruin either. Bypass/blow off/diverter valves serve dual function and aren't in place solely to save the life of a turbo. The boost pressure being run has to go somewhere when shifting and at the right time given the right circumstance could easily ruin throttle plate/plates not to mention the throttle body. Given a higher rpm and higher boost pressure, sudden closing of the throttle plate/ plates could easily distort the actuatpr that the plate/plates rest of and could cause the plate/plates to dig into the aluminum throttle body deeper than they would normally rest completely closed. Not saying that this will happen but it certainly can. At the boost pressure that you plan on running, you might want to look into a dual setup where one recirculates out of the turbo back into the intake tract saving your spendy turbo and one venting to the atmosphere saving your throttle body. Get yourself a mighty vac and test the opening vacuum of each valve and go from there.

Or you could just do it the way you want and cross your fingers, either way I don't give a ---- and hope you used plastigauge in your bottom end build.
