Hey guys,
My turbo shaft is gone and my turbo is in for rebuild, It was suggested to me to have them rebuild it with a metal shaft instead of a ceramic shaft. Apparently someone didn't change their oil frequently enough. Can someone experienced comment about this metal and ceramic business? Plus anything else I should know or have done while it's being rebuilt. Thanks This post has been edited by delusionz: Mar 5, 2009 - 11:21 PM -------------------- Mike W

I got my car back today from Toyota and now I have a CT-26.... Is this an upgrade or a downgrade? For some reason my boost only goes up to 0.6bar instead of 0.9bar and theres extra lag now. What the heck? What can I tweak to get back my 0.9bar? Will everything be fine if I do manage to up my boost? The car doesn't launch like a bat out of hell from 3k anymore.
EDIT: Will this void my new warranty also? This post has been edited by delusionz: Mar 5, 2009 - 11:24 PM -------------------- Mike W
