got my turbo yesterday, just waiting on ecu...
 
got my .63/.60 yesterday and got the center section and compressor rotated and ready to install, just waiting for my ecu to get here now, might be here today. this turbo is in awesome shape, no shaft play at all, no bent/chipped fins, no stripped bolt holes/broken studs, all flange surfaces afe flat and straight, no cracks in the housing, etc., now watch, the seals will prolly be bad ::) don't flame the mani please ;)

lol, nice manifold. :-X :P

That was some fast shipping. Take a picture of the inside of that manifold. I want to see what the inside where the turbo flange is looks like. Just curious...... :-\

So when is the actual install?

alright, i'll get some pics of it this evening, it doesn't look bad to me at all, the welds are full on the inside and out and it's braced like a bitch, i don't see how it would crack any time soon :-\ i've been hearing a lot of people coming out lately saying they've been using them for a while with no problems, if this is the case, you can't beat the price/looks. yeah, sunny jay hooked it up with the shipping on the turbo. i may do the install tonight if my ecu get's here, my wife is going to a jimmy buffet concert and got a baby sitter, so it would work out perfect to do it tonight, if the ecu isn't here today, the install will have to be saturday. our local track is open on sunday nights, so i should get a timeslip this weekend as well and some video ;D i can't believe i'm finally gonna have a turbo, i've never even ridden in a boosted car other than factory turbo stuff :P

Nice, turbo is there. I have not heard to many bad stories about the mani after they started bracing it and welding the insides also. They do look better than the first ones I had seen from them. Hurry up!!! ;) ;)
