That and a dollar will get me a cup of coffee out of the vending machine.

Anyhow, here are the pics that show why I needed a turbo upgrade.

10psi.

Not sure whether it was damaged or not when I got it. I was out driving it real hard one weekend, hit a dip in the road and got the car airborne. Wanted to stutter under heavy acceration after that. Then I put in a nismo fpr so the 300zxTT fuel pump I put in wouldn't cause my fuel to be out of whack. It ran real good for about 3 minutes on the test drive, then BOOM! No moore boost. My best guess is that by fixing my fuel situation, it was causeing the car to run better and put out more back pressure and this did in the already damaged turbo.
