Here's a graph of the Boost & RPM trace when I blew up my motor. At least I know this turbo is going to kick ass response wise once I get it back on the road. 500 rpm transition from 0 bar to 1 bar, fifth gear.

Received the replacement Iannetti 2mm ceramic apex seals and a second set of new springs. Will be ordering the other parts towards the end of this months, once I recoup from my DGRR08 trip. I really can't afford it, but I need it.
Herblenny is hooking me up with his RX-8 while I'm there. Phil's the man!

Well, took the motor apart and got a few surprises, looks like I need to get the irons lapped and re-coated if possible. May need to get new ones, let's hope not. Everything else that blew up was expected. Not pretty.
Will be buying parts soon. Depending on if the irons are salvageable or not I may have the motor built by the end of May.
Nice build!
