Message	are you disapointed in the amount of peak HP, is the spoolup not everything you expected, have they failed prematurely...could you please elaborate? Before you reconsider the turbos, are you 100% positive that your setup is completely free of boost leaks, that your fuel delivery is optimum...etc? _________________________________________________________________________________ "The Z is the cause and the solution to all my problems" -- Me manstretch: well, my rear end is just worn out ZEngineer24: sig quote
