Well, so far I have been running at 10psi and been to 15 a couple times...Really afraid to blow up because I am financially tanked at the moment...So I am totally babying it now...It spools up to full boost by about 37 or 3800rpm...Sligtly more lag than stock twins...Almost not noticable...I have 275 Yokahama ES100 and it's breaking loose almost all the way through 2nd and part of 3rd...Top end is kick ***...Lost of people say it falls on it's face on the top end...Well, that's not what I have noticed. I was fortunate enough to ride in a GT40 at 10PSi and it wasn't much different at high RPM...pulls like a frieght train all they way till you **** your pants and let off. I am completely happy with the setup and will post dyno #s soon.


Sorry to hear about this dude...I will tell you that my car was down for a total of 7 months...Some of that time i had the car doing the breakin.

2.5 of those months my car sat there waiting on a motor because there was a national back-order on remans. Then when it finally came in there were just miscellaneous things that needed to be ordered. So most of the time was spent waiting on parts...Probably just like the **** your brother experienced...

Then when I finally got the motor back, broke it in, went down for tuning...Hmmm, motor blew during tuning. Turns out it was a bad batch of mazda seals. Well, I will let you know that Gotham stood by their work and replaced the motor...I didn't have to pay for anything except when I decided to upgrade the seals to 3mm. So milling and all that put it out another 3 weeks...Anyway, we just had to wait on one thing or another.

I really don't think that Gotham is to blame because they are somewhat of a middle man between you and the supplier...Unfortunately these suppliers who are slow as **** happen to have the best prices. Only thing I think they can do to make things a little speedier is to source better, more reliable suppliers, even if it means paying a little more. Personally I don't mind paying an extra 2 bucks on a 5 buck part to have it tomorrow instead of 3 weeks from now.

Anyway, I got my car back and i'm happy....But I am like your bro I guess..i fukin hate waiting.

THat is so true. There are some things they cannot get right away because the connection they have for the product is not avail. at the moment. Like lots of greddy products were on backorder for at least 5 months. So dont bash on Gotham it is not their fault i guarantee if they had it in stock it would have been there within a few days.

Apneablue: You engine bay is beautiful Can i see some pics of the whole car and the rimms?
