Does it say there was? I don't remember this.

5- The turbo is a rebuilt, but is working fine so far.
I've always assumed this. Because at $1800, a new turbo would be a full 1/3 the cost of the kit.

7- After the installation of the new spring the car was still over boosting. The problem: the wastegate dump in the downpipe was too small. We had to cut it and drill a bigger hole.
I don't know what you mean here. Can you please elaborate?

But after all the work was done and some parts added (Profec e-01, Walbro 255, Nismo fuel pressure regulator, gaskets, clamps, hoses, bolts), the car is now producing 249 whp at 10 psi. Which is pretty good for a KA24DE with stock internals.[/QUOTE]

These are my thoughts on these issues. The others, that sucks to hear about. #8 I just replied about.
What other mods to the car? Exhaust, tires/wheels, ect.
Please answer on the bold question.
