damn 3 years on street tune!? I figured since the engines high compression a dyno tune would be necessisary but i guess not? was your turbo expensive?

Re: turbo gsr (jimmyrab)
i bought the kit from a "former" friend lol for 400 so he could make a car payment everything was brand new and never installed. so i think i got a good deal but i have not had a problem with my kit yet. but i do think my headgasket needs to be replaced i have a small leak coming from the front left corner sooo i have to check on that and yes my car is internally stock as well

nice 400 sounds like a steal.. SS manifold or cast iron? I just bought a cast iron hoping it to never break.. stock injectors?
