And the housing...

The last reply from my supplier was like this
"...tomei says the problem is in ECU..." actually I do not understand how ecutuner could make so thin the wall of housing

@evodom1

I would contact TOMEI USA directly... I'm sure they know the issue with few of their turbos and will sort it out.
