it appears the basemap was wrong, im not great with computers so i sent it back to the shop i bought it from for them to "fix" it. i havent tried the new map yet, my fuel system is in a transition stage and im in no rush to put it back together as its cold and i wont drive the car until spring. i will wrap up the fuel system and try the new map in a couple weeks though.

1.05 twinscroll ewg. i got an early one and it looks flawless. compressor housing is so big and the integrated bov is in a spot that makes it really hard to fit between the trans and radiator though.

That's the same turbo I have been waiting for since June! I recently started to wonder if I should have went with the 0.92. Subscribed......eager to see how everything turns out. Good luck with everything!

The 1.05 isnt even very big, no way i would go any smaller. It appears that they got the housing drama figured out, i think there will be a lot more of them shipping soon.

Looks good, should be awesome when it's done.
We're starting to see some amazing results on these turbos in the uk.
The transient response is unreal...

Good luck with it all

Is this up and running yet?

two questions did you have to trim that tab on your transmission to get the compressor to fit? and are there any issues with the intergrated BOV with clearance problems either?

It will need to be trimmed, the integrated bov hits it hard. I was trying to work around it, but it would require a custom radiator. I havent touched the car all winter, its in pieces until it warms up in a few weeks.
