Thought I'd post up on here in case anyone was interested. I'm running a group buy on these over on DSMtalk but anyone here is welcome to get in.
SSautochrome has 30 of these on hand available for us in a GB. We've got over 10 buyers currently so the price has dropped to the lowest amounts. We're looking at $300 shipped for the Mitsu flanged version or $320 shipped for the Garrett flanged version with Tial WG flange. Pics, dynos, and reviews can be seen here: www.koumotorsports.com We did see a 20-25hp gain on the top end. Not sure how much everyone here has followed things so I don't want to deluge everyone with old information. But I'd be happy to answer any questions or assign GB numbers to anyone that wants in on the GB. -------------------- |

Spy's car was knocking on the run where the exhaust gasket blew. When the car knocks, timing is retarded. This will cause later ignition and a large, hot flame front out of the exhaust ports. This is why high EGT's can indicate knock. This flame front was getting choked by the small 14b turbine housing. You can see this by watching the manifold start to glow brightly right where it meets the turbo. So basically the hottest place on the knocking/retarded timing engine was right where the exhaust manifold to turbo gasket was, causing it to blow out.
