Wow Jimi you're nuts! I would of done the tgv deletes, injectors, and the turbo inlet at the same time! Well, second time should be a lot easier i guess.

Sucks about your turbo though. Good excuse to upgrade now....

sucks about your turbo, my experience with the OCC....at every stop and go traffic, smoke would come out from the exhaust everytime I accelerated....

right before the OCC install, I check the throttle, turbo, y pipe/hoses for excess oil...sure enough there was oil on all of them, but the y pipe/hoses that connected to the turbo was the worst....it had oil build up-cleaned it, put the OCC and maybe a year or less later, check it again and it was all G-no more smoke...

the install was very easy.. its the genuine txs fmic, i have some extra pipes im gonna cut up to reverse flow it.... the lag is so crappy tho, but im not sure if its worst due to the turbo being messed up... i gotta order soon!! for those of you wondering, i was gonna upgrade the turbo thats why i installed the fmic...
