Well my e-bay turbo went off and the garrett went on... Install went smooth , other than the downpipe didnt line up... No biggie had Onebaddxj@teamfx weld it up for me so it fit{DOES WONDERFULL WORK} and was on my way... Get out on the road give it some gas.... 2psi... Im like WTF very little boost.. First thought it was a boost leak.. Go home make a boost leak tester find my bov is bad{bought it on IA go figure}and leaking like a siv..Replace it go out for a drive... same thing... little better but nothing more than 4 psi . So at this point im getting upset.. So i start thinking its my new greddy profec boost controller... Swap it out... same thing!! So now im in it about 400$ and got no where..! So now im like it sounds like the wastegate , no biggie i order a new tial . So after 3 weeks and about 750$ i install the new gate and im off..... or not.. SAME thing!! AGHH...So then im like screw this its going to BALANCED.... Drop the car off and a hour later they call.." your cars done" Im like really? Seemed like a dream. Get there and i put the down pipe gasket on upside down so it was covering the exit of the turbo!! DOH!! So i put my asshat on and enjoyed my car!! Thank you BALANCED !! Peter is the man!!!!
