Mine just blows puffs on pulls, not smoking at idle. I want to get a boost gauge on there this weekend and see if it is making boost. If it is then it's nbd yet. It just felt slow the last time that I drove it.

You just try to wiggle it? I'm not sure what is normal there.

That was certainly my assumption before I saw those other two had gone down from smoking. I got the first turbo so all three of them were probably from the same batch. I sent Chad a PM to give him a heads up. If I ship it in to be inspected then I'll prolly have him stuff a bigger wheel in there.

We'll have to find a way to bribe Anna, but we can sure rip it apart man.

I'm definitely going to be reaching out on this one. A turbo swap is one of those things that is too easy to pay someone to do and yet takes some time. I'm thinking it won't be too terrible with an aftermarket DP on there.
