Baller Boost-gregs new low mount turbo
#282
Update! Sevenstock is tomorrow and Brettus finally decided to take me up on my offer to come out and see it with his very own eyes. First thing we do when he checks into LA Casa De Gregs...we install my Mac 46 solenoid haha. Hoefully we have some more updates for you after this weekend if we can stop drinking beers ![Yesnod](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/yesnod.gif)

Tuning is done for the day. We have the EBC dialed in to maintain boost through the entire rpm range now there's a very noticeable difference in power however once we reached 10 psi the ignition coils were not up to the task, after performing a test turns out we have 3 out of 4 coils that are underperforming. I'm currently trying to source some replacement coils and get back on track while I have Brettus here in person. Here's a shot from earlier today while out making noise.

Well I have the BHR kit with less than 1k miles on mine. Now that I have run into this minor setback it has opened my eyes on preventative and expectations on what should be done before going into the FI'd world. Everyone needs to test spark on d585 coils. The more we drove the car the condition became worse even turning the boost down did not resolve the issue.

Gregs glad to see the kit is capable of mainting 10psi to redline. Making me consider it in the future. Thanks for the update! Good luck with the coils
