Very well done How is it to drive? I imagine boost is pretty much instant. Not a setup for big numbers, but still fun I'm sure. What did everything end up costing you?

WD it runs like a really strong NA motor. Absolutely no turbo lag and power is fairly decent throughout the RPM range. I'm really satisfied with the setup. It spins hard through first and halfway through 2nd. It sure as hell beats driving all NA style. In the whole set up I have less than a grand. Not bad for a really fun driving 240. (Thats under a grand for the turbo set up.)

It reminds me of driving my first Skyline, well first turbocharged car for that matter. It wasn't really fast, it didn't have alot of room for growth. But it was pretty fun to drive. Although even that car had a T3 and it was on a 2.0.

I would really like to measure IAT's as the boost rises. I bet the egt's are failry high as well. But I guess if its not knocking and its fun, then power to ya.

You may want to rotate your SSQV 180*. Ram air is not compatible with BOVs.
