jimbos'ss turbo build
You'll probably have to use the -7psi spring. Mine came with a -11psi and it would surge badly before it blew off, got a -9psi and it still chatters a tiny bit before it blows off. Now I got a -7psi in the mail to try out. According to Tial's BOV spring chart -11psi is what we should use but I guess not.

w00t!!!! cryo is done
so just heard from the cryo shop he is done with the motor, now it goes off to the machine shop for cylinder honing, balancing, 5 angle valve job, and assembly.
it will, i ran out of funding to do a complete fuel system. that will come later along with the new exhaust mani, and another turbo. i'm just gonna have to budget very well cause the wifey is about on wits end with me spending money on this car
sweet, the last thing i need is the piston rings and thats everything.

save money where you can, spend where you need it.(new turbo)
thats what i was figuring, my only concern is the in tank regulator at this point.
allright finally a light at the end of the damn tunnell. so the motor is being put back together tomorow, should be finished by next week, then all the fab work gets started when motor and new tranny is back in. this weekend while i am waiting on the motor i will be finishing up the returnstyle fuel system. all in all the car should be back on the road for break in in about 2 weeks. final tuning won't start till i get a 1k miles on the motor and 2 oil changes. once the fuel tuning is done, i'll take it to a dyno so i can get my timing right and then i'll be able to post some number.
Trust me, I understand. Everytime mine has broke or something has happened, it has sat for anywhere from a month, to over 4 months! There has been at least 4-5 occurances I can think of off the top of my head. There is nothing better than getting it all back together, and going for that first slow cruise with the moonroof open.
Usually at like midnight or later sine that is when the car is finally ready after busting hump to put it all together!
