        Haha! Mine does as well so its somewhat humorous that part throttle is faster than full throttle sometimes. Id really like to check it out sometime though

          'Part throttle is faster than full throttle' I know! I always thought there was something wrong with my turbo or something. Haha

            I ordered a performance clutch from UUC but I'm still waiting for it to come in.

              I've watched this video 20+ times and I still giggle like a little school girl

              The only thing that comes to mind is "why?"...

                    Should have bought a turbo without such outdated design hehe. Gotta love Garrett. Let's bandaid our bad design with a ball bearing cartridge that can't be rebuilt!

                        Here is the latest  in my quest to spool sooner.
                        I modified the blowoff valve because it sounded as if it was opening a bit prematurely, that doesnt seem to be the case but it does seem to be holding more after 8psi now so that's a win. Threshold1zps96ab8a28.jpg
