Today, thanks to Luke@Pacific Works, we replaced the CT26 with a CT20b from a rev3. Must say there's quite a difference, but now onto increasing boost... :twisted:

boost turned up! installed a rudimentary T-shaped MBC today - car seems a LOOOT faster. Happy days.
Also Luke wired the CC pump and engine bay fan to the ignition with a relay, so I don't have to flip 2 switches every time I start the car ;]

well, after a short affair with the Nur Spec I could not live with the volume, so the HKS is back. Grille bent up!

Also last friday Luke@Pacific Works installed and set up a Gizzmo MSIBC boost controller, and found a split hose which caused my turbo to boost itself into oblivion. After a couple quick test runs and configuring the controller we're back in business with stable controlled boost! :evil:
