At long last, my WR is in and running correctly. Thanks again to Zeus for setting up the awesome group buy, and kudos to Works for getting it working correctly!
Has not been a cheap endeavor however. Whatever pennies I saved on the group buy have long since dissappeared - spent on upgrades/replacements etc, etc. Works 02 housing, 76mm dp, samco hoses (hose split), Works DV, etc, etc...
Can't say enough about Works' efforts and service. Culminated by a 2 day install marathon at Works (adding other stuff and diagnosing a boost leak) with Pete himself turning wrenches till 12am.
And, I might add that the WR is a beast. Not the best HP/$ value out there, but IMHO, a fantastic upgrade to my 03 evo, perfect for my application. This car is my daily driver that sees a good amount of track time. WR spools earlier than my stock turbo and adds power everywhere! Hits full boost FAST and hauls a$$ all the way to my 8k rpm redline. Gas mileage has plummetted!!! No dyno graphs yet, but will get it done eventually.
Thanks again Zeus, Forced Performance, and especially Works!

Does Works have an official mail-in WR flash? If so, does it require bigger fuel pump and/or injectors?
I think he ment Water Injection.
By the way how does this turbo compair to the Evo 9 20G upgrade?

I love my WR and the Works 02 housing, but I have a secret crush on the Buschur Evo 9 20G.
The WR is definitely a great turbo, though.

I think if you install a stiffer w/g actuator, you should get more out of the WR.
if not, sell the wr, keep the actuator & use it on the Buschur Evo 9 20G
