What have you done to your MSP today?

I'd say that's a pretty fair diagnosis. Can't hurt to try. I would check the bushings, linkage and all that good stuff if bleeding doesn't help.

the t25 from the silvias are journal bearing (correct me if im wrong) and they are rebuildable. the dual ball bearing ones are not rebuildable. but $100 is what i was thinking

I have a GT25 that I rebuilt, got it for $25 bucks.... Sorry but those things are cheap....
 
Well you coulda spoke up lol.

And how cheap are we talking? Cause this one is costing me $110 total. And I may still be interestes in a OEM one down the road...

Uh, yeah..... about that.... I may have missed that post where you said you were looking for one. I'll give my buddy a call and see what he wants. I know it's not much cause he's already made his money back, and is turning a profit on the parts car, lol. Everything sold from here on out is profit, and he's still got 75% of the car.
 
I still need to wait for another coupler and air filter to arrive before I can finish making an RAI for my FMIC install but I finished the hot and cold sides so I started it up yesterday and it ran great. Didn't want to drive far without an intake but holy s***, I love this car now. It runs so much better, the turbo sounds great and the BOV is SOOO f*cking cool. I hope nothing else breaks on this car anytime soon because I am Extremely happy with it right now.
 
I made myself cringe pretty bad installing my slim fan, the zip tie things that secure the fan in have to bend the radiator fins a little to fit through, which I wasn't crazy about and on one some of the metal was pushed out the other side. Not to mention cutting the stock harness to wire the fans which I HATE doing but otherwise it fits and performs better than the stock one. I just wired the black to ground and the blue wire to the yellow wire on the stock harness.
 
(werd) I need to straighten some of the fins on the back of the radiator...I hit it a couple of times installing the hard pipes and flatted some lol
 
Same here, but trying to straighten them with a tiny flathead only made some of them worse. Just have to get a full size aluminum radiator someday I guess, need to lose the useless SMIC anyway.

Pm me some info if you would...
 
There is yet another stock turbo in a GI thread that popped up last night. Assuming that he gets proper pics and parts it out.. I would pm him to ask for dibs.
