There are many people who have appeared from now where seemingly simply to post in this thread.

There are few who made good questions and less that are credible. People respected in both this community and others. People who have many achievements besides those they claim. Tim Radley is one of the ones who has many achievements and is highly respected.

Not to mention the fact that the parts shown prior were not made by ET but shown as his work or dont work on Evos. To the uninformed person this looks like its unbelievable new ideas when its not even for the platform.

I wish the best for Joe and hope that every thing works out. I understand though why people might say something when you constantly boast how superior to all others and throw around inflated numbers. ET wont be the first leaving the board after making such claims. *cough* *TTP* *cough*

If not, I think we need to tread gently here. At least that's how I feel.

O.P. I hope you get everything you wanted out of this new setup, and kudos for thinking outside the box and giving a new shop a chance.
Thank you guys for the support!!

yes very exciting weekend. I posted videos on the other thread!

I have to say that the track prep work was immaculate since cars were cutting crazy 60 fts!

I also noted that the ET Subaru had a major change in the transmission setup thus the excellent starts.

ET's prices aren't bad at all, surprisingly.

I was quoted $1800 US for a billet 11 blade T3 3794 equivalent that he claimed spooled 500rpms faster, but never picked it up because I went stock frame. To me, that's pretty cheap. Spyros offered to give me a sponsor discount, too, which I thought was cool. I'm stoked for the outcome, regardless if it's good or bad. I just want a damn answer on whether these parts perform or not!

according to ET, they now make stock location turbos for the 4G63. FWIW to you

I think he knows the guy, so he may be accurate. Any particular reason why?

Over as in complete, no longer an Extreme Tuners build, or just thrown in the towel?

Clarification would be nice. I have been very interested in this for a long time.

I was under the impression that would be a journal bearing turbo for that money. If it was ball bearing that would be a great value if it performed.
