i have been in hiding for awhile... just a note and a word of advise.
if you have taken the plastic caps out of the lower corners of your bumper for air flow. get some sort of metal mesh cover to go over the holes to keep any debre from penetrating your filters and destroying your turbos or maybe worse. i am speaking from experience...
any also the g handles very nicely at 171MPH..
There seems to be multiple stories here. Is that true?

What about this part? "get some sort of metal mesh cover to go over the holes to keep any debre from penetrating your filters and destroying your turbos or maybe worse."

^^^^oh i had something punchure my drive side filter because of where they sit and i did not see it. it was so small. it was not seen until closely inspected and we guess a pebble or something maybe smaller got through and destroyed the driver side turbo.
i have alittle over 13000 miles on my car now with the turbos and gone on long road trips. first major issue i have had mechanically.. so just sharing my experiencesto prevent others from making the same mistake.....

Wow ... never heard of this happening before. Did you see the damage to the turbo? Just wondering how bad it was because I would expect a lot more problems if the compressor blades broke and sent metal debris downstream to the motor.
