Sounds like pump got hot. You will need to use two big bars and pry it out. The bushing is most likey stuck on converter.

Black wheels look better, chrome wheels remind of trucks with cali lean


A boost controller wont lowet your boost, will only increase it

Been a while since I updated this. Jakes took care of the transmission for me. Am happy with there service the only down side is they are a little slow. Put a different waste gate and boost controller. Running about 16lbs and running really good. Got a few plans within the next months.

Coolant leak at heater core
Oil pan barely leaking at the welded bung for the turbo return (best aftermarket pan??)
Color match all the chrome
Lower it another inch all the way around
Billet Grilles
Sound System
Possibly different wheels.
Need to clean up engine bay as well
