Quoting Scientist:
I'm waiting to see how my 3065 Performs....if I don't like it i already spoke to FP about upgrading to an HTA

Don't worry you'll like it lol.

Aaron with English is giving FP a call tomorrow, hopefully we can get a DSM76 on the way here pretty soon.

Anyone know how long it takes to get these hybrids from FP?

It depends. Some times they have them on the shelf and other times they don't build a turbo tell they get the order. Then once they get the order it can be a waiting game because they don't always have all the parts on the shelf.

Thats exactly what I figured, I guess I was just hoping for something a little more enlightening.

When are you sending yours in for the upgrade, Brian? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hsugh.gif

I already surprised a lot of people with the car, and that was just the begining. I wont be full time E85 like I was, but it will be nice to get better numbers than the pissed off 16G on pump.

When Aaron was checking it out, he was able to get it spin, but it was the nut that broke loose (with his fingers, what a beast!) and the impeller was spinning freeley from the shaft, which was also spinning freely. WTF? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

I really don't know when I am going to send my turbo in for the upgrade. Maybe this winter. The car runs so well right now that I am happy with it. Plus that fact that I want a 10s pass on the FP3052. I know people have done it but I just have not seen it on a gvr4.

As for you turbo. It sounds like the it seized. Or maybe you broke the shaft
