Had an old man that does 18 wheeler trailer repair stick the brackets on for me. Not the prettiest but they'll never fail that's for sure. Couldn't find anyone around here that Tigs. Yay for living in the middle of nowhere.

Finally got it all together. Stupid 90mm TB drove me nuts..had to get a 4.25 to 3.5 adapter to finally get it to work...and of course they shipped me the wrong one and left me scratching my head wondering what the hell was wrong for a couple of days..
Anywho. It runs. Runs pretty well. Makes ~8lbs. That's all I can get out of it. Guess my exhaust is way more restrictive than I thought it was. Cutout is on the way so hopefully I can turn it up to about 12psi.
I have never ridden in a turbo vehicle before so I had no idea what to expect. And I must say, it doesn't "feel" faster. It gets quieter the faster it goes, and it's just a smooth pull throughout the RPM range. i'm pretty unimpressed with it right now. Maybe I should have gone procharger to get that punch in the chest. haha
Taking it to the track Friday, so I guess we'll see if the 5k I spent was worth atleast a tenth or if I should just go st in the corner and cry.
Here's a few vids

Nah it's not too far off. 11.3-11.8ish and 13-14 degrees all the way throughout the rpm range at wot.
Needs moar boost. Pulled much harder with just the open downpipe and made the same amount of boost with the boost controller all the way down (it's maxxed out now)
