Default im kinda boosted...

ha kinda funny (maybe not so funny but ironic or tragic) that someone else has the same problem as i do. so here goes the story.

May 18th I bring in my car to Slomotion Racing here in Columbus, OH. I say I want to get boosted, and i have all of the parts, Slowmotion says ok.
I go to arizona for a little vacation. Gonna be moving there soon. So I go and my baby is at Slowmotion for the weekend. Plan was to come back and drive my freshly boosted teggy.
Well I get back and the only thing that was missing was T- bolt clamps, other than that everything was done.
Corey says tomorrow they'll be here and then we'll be able to tune it. WOOHOO! So tomorrow comes along and I get there to see the car parked in the garage as if they've tuned it, nope. Corey walks up to me and says that everything is done but it doesn't boost. HAHA YOU'RE FUNNY COREY! no seriously. My heart sinks.
WHAT? he tells me that there is one blade that is hitting the housing and that is making it not boost more than 2 lbs. So the only thing to do is to tear the car all apart and send in the turbo to Precision to have them check it out. I think it was on thrusday or friday that it was sent in. No word yet but H-T please pray that i get my baby back soon so that I can go out and play.
Sorry its late and im kinda loopy. Thought I would just share some of the problems that come along with puttin stuff on a car.

oh here's my setup: no pics yet, will post as soon as i get my car back!

Precision SC50
Neukin AC freindly manifold
SlowMo IC Piping 2" and 2.5"
SlowMo DP 2.5" to 3"
Kteller 3" Stainless Exhaust
Magnaflow Oval 3"
Flemenco-T stainless oil lines
RC 550's
Hondata S200B
P74 ECU (i think, maybe a P06 or P75, can't remember)
Stewert Warner Gauges
Turbo Smart In Cabin MBC
Tial 38 Wastegate (open dumptube)
Tial 50mm BOV
2 12" slim fans (one push one pull)
Greddy Turbo Timer
Walbro 255lph fuel pump

Im sure im forgettin somethin, but all of this on a stock block. think i can get 250 at thw wheels with this?
