Yes, today I just received my 3lb spring so the wastegates match and it should be done. I have been driving it and it feels strong and is almost controllable, when I get the spring in im confident it will be done.

Thats great but the problem is that the 1 ton planetary has a big bearing and the output shaft is small so it will go together but there is no longer that bearing support so I just dont know how long it will last. Thats why I sleeve the 1/2 ton shaft to fit the planet.

It worked ok, still to much boost and I was just going to put a manual toggle for lockup ground because in lockup it pulled like a freightrain and didnt really get that feeling otherwise. On friday night I took it on a long ride and long story short it burned to the ground. Its sad how long it takes to perfect something and how quick all your time and money is wasted. I smelled plastic and pulled over - the fuse box was on fire, I took my shirts off and tried smothering and beating it out, but its done.

Damn that's sad but at least your Ok and no one was hurt. Always remember that metal is replaceable and people aren't.
