Well, I just thought I would let everyone know that the AWD is alive again. Come to find out the BR580 I had on her is trashed and im not planning on getting it fixed for awhile. I have been driving it now for the last few days and its running great. The only problem i have been having is the stock turbo that i am running ( waiting on the new setup to arrive ) is spitting oil out the intake side and if i hold the boost too long she smokes a little bit. Other then that everything is good. Well, except for the fact that i cant log and dont know if Im running any knock.

I ordered my new setup last week and im waiting for it to arrive:

Turbosmart ultragate 38mm external wastegate ( supposed to arrive tomorrow )

Evo III 16g , fully ported w/ external gate (obviously,still waiting on the tracking# )

SBR Stainless Steel Polished tubular header w/ wastegate tube

Stainless Steel oil feedline kit ( from the head because Im not taking anymore chances with high oil pressure problems ) w/ Goodridge oil filter insert

I figured this setup would easily get me into the 12's and be safe for the motor.

Let me know what you guys think? and i will definetly post a pic of the items when i get them!!!!!

first of all, i did in fact get my waste gate yesterday. Awesome i might add!

second I have a question. Why did my car pop the dipstick tube this morning? I was on my way home from work and got into it a little bit and when i got home , just out of curiousity i popped the hood. Guess what i found, the dipstick tube popped out and there was a bit of oil on the hood and valve cover. Why is this? I am running a stock boost controller but its not doing a very good job cause its running 18 psi when i open her up. I know that i probably need to pinch the tube. Let me know guys cause i dont wanna be spittin oil everywhere.

Also, i got the tracking number and my new setup will be here thursday around 1pm. Guess what i will be doing this weekend.
