Well my purpose is to have good amount of power but not monster power as I'm not racing everyday or planning on going to drag.

Yeah we need a update on the k04r, sounds promising hanging with new m3 tho. I just want to see what rpm its holding power too and when its starts to die off.

And if it does turn out well black friday sale or group buy lol

i highly doubt you will get a better deal, he is buying a turbo then completely refurbishing it, milling it out and installing and balancing a new compressor wheel for $650(500 with core)

Nope I blew my intercooler bough a new one had it on for a few months and my friend didn't tell me about a huge curb I couldn't see because of a dip and I took out my intercooler again.

I'm on a winter tune and will be putting on the 7163 for spring. I was never thinking of dynoing it had issues I needed to solve then didn't want to spend the cash on dyno when 7163 was coming out soon

Which is too bad because other than I'm at altitude I'm running a lot more timing on more boost than Nathan on 94 and meth

If some one buys my LSJ I will buy this turbo the same day and dyno my car. It'll be for sale afterwards though because my future plans include the s256ax et

Will do.
I will shoot for a dyno pull sometime in December.

I should have my car back together the first weekend of December, spend a week breaking in the clutch, and then log the latest revision of your tune.

It will probably end up being sold like a month after I buy it. I am pretty much only buying it to do dyno numbers for it.

I'm in need of a new k04 and am considering this......but I just wish there were more reviews of this. Any good or bad long term reviews of at least 5k miles put on it? I can't find any long term review of their products anywhere, I know they are new but certainly people have put some miles on their rebuilds.
