Congrats on the results JJ, its sounds like a beast! I may be joining you on that hotside upgrade next spring (in regards to creeping)

Thanks jgheels, I'm hoping to get the 20G up to your power level eventually. In regards to the creeping, luckily I haven't had any. Deadbolt has revised some things on the newer 20G's to help with creep, and I upgraded my flapper to 38MM and added in a clipped turbine to help aid in preventing boost creep. The 8.5CM will certainly be an interesting upgrade!... hmm

JJ18Sniper · 12-27-2006, 07:51 PM

Defi's should be here tomorrow... with a painted Defi center hood :-D

In regards to Swaybars... for a daily driver I'm leaning towards the cusco front 22mm and rear 22mm. Can anyone chime in on a negative feeling towards that? Is it necessary to upgrade the endlinks with them?... If so Kartboy a viable choice?

Cusco's will work fine. I have them and love them. If you wanted bigger/heavier Whiteline's are great, a tad bit more expensive I think. With endlinks, its not official to upgrade them if you have upgraded sways, but in my book, it is....only reason the stockers are sooo freaking thin, and they are prone to snapping if you take the turns pretty hard and stuff. I love my Whiteline Solid Endlinks.

I'm sure yours is right up there with mine, if not more. You did it right, I don't have the upgraded wastegate, my turbo is early '05. I think the larger hotside and 38mm will be a great combo, even if its a touch laggier. Its just a lot more expensive to upgrade to an external just to keep the 7cm response. I also have a hot weather tune and its freezing out here so I just need to watch it.

Keep posting!
