Thanks! I was looking for that thread in my bookmarks. GLWS

I really want to confirm for sure it is the same manifold that protege garage sells? If I can confirm that it is going to have the same performance gains and it isn't one of the less desirable manifolds I am interested.

Interested in all 3, pm sent.

Oh wow, I had searched a good bit and never ran across that one. Thank you very much! I need to take out my console anyways in the near future, perfect pre-summer task.

I actually have this exact same issue in my MSP, have poked around some to try and sort it out but never have had much luck.

Got it together and took for it for a drive. I ended up doing FMIC with all hard pipes, clocked turbo, Mishimoto Radiator w/slimfan, Steedspeed Exhaust mani, new CHRA for the turbo, MAF relocation, Forge BOV, removal of the butterfly flap in the intake mani,, and a front motor mount. I would...

With luck I should be up and running so I can come by.

My CHRA from ATP turbo up north ended up being 460ish dollars (assuming yours is the GT25 which if stock it is). Garret has a ball bearing replacement program with these turbos as they cannot be rebuilt like the journal bearing turbos. You send your CHRA to ATP or another Garret authorized...

Did not realize the forums downsized images so much. I am not sure why the link is not working, it works for me (I log out of my google account and check the link). It is not 200 shipped but if someone is interested we can check on shipping and negotiate from there.

I am selling this brand new in box Alpine Type X subwoofer. I have had this sitting in my closet for awhile now, it is one model older than the newest generation type X subwoofers. Other than taking the sub out of the box maybe 3-4 times (including tonight to take pictures) it has lived its life...

Very possible as I have only seen one other black MSP, mine is stock appearance other than seeming to always be dirty(black car+dust=sigh). I live out northwest of Lancaster, I do most my errands in Lancaster and Palmdale though.

Heard back from someone about the stud extraction. Will probably be going that route rather than buying a different turbo. Thanks to those who did reply and pm.

**Edit** No longer looking for this, thanks.

Holy crap, there is stuff going on near me! I will have to pay attention to when the next meet is and meet you all.

New mishimoto radiator and fan on the way as well, looks like it has been leaking near the bottom tank.

Will do. Sending off the CHRA today, ordered a Steedspeed exhaust manifold yesterday, intercooler and hardpipes in the living room. I will get all new gaskets,nuts,bolts,studs when I have the CHRA mailed to me. Just trying to figure out if there is anything else I should replace while I have it...

Not sure if you still have or are still selling the pope downpipe? Sent you a pm as well, let me know. Thanks Cash in hand ready to buy once we talk.

Yeah I did get the exhaust side apart as I mentioned above. Good snap ring pliers seem hard to find, sears had only junk. Hopefully someone here has the parts. Time to hit some autopart stores and hope they are not unreasonably expensive.

The compressor side is held by a nasty strong retaining clip, the compressor side is held by a clamp ring that is held by bolts. I had been stuck on removing the turbine housing, it was so bound up I could not get it to budge after I took out the 6 or so bolts holding the clamp. I let it soak in...
