bnguyenbb6 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 For those who don't know my STOCK oil pump failed on me in August at 11 months old and 17,000 miles. As far as the new set-up, we are trying to get the STi intake manifold to fit, but we are having to do some creative things with it right now. We worked on assembling the motor last night from midnight to 8am (assembly is taking a bit longer on this because of the STi "conversion") mattg^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verwilderd Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 do you think the avo actuator will do much on a stock turbo? I'm curious as I've been looking at that part...but haven't quite figured out the advantage of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious as I've been looking at that part...but haven't quite figured out the advantage of it. its proven pretty nice. it keeps the wastegate from fluttering open during boost which if youve ever monitored happens a lot in high rpms so like its name implies it keeps boost solid. useless signature line where i cant mention my sponsors "First Bagged BL5!"

Verwilderd Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Cool. I might need that then. I've got some crazy wastegate flutter going on now. You canactually hear it with the avo top mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grimlin Posted November 9, 2009 Author Share Posted November 9, 2009 On a side note, I had Cory with Interior Flair put in some Footwell lighting in the legacy and I love them!
