I can't say I've tried the 8 blade but the 7 blade is great on the street, especially with a twin scroll setup.

Oh good idea, I should run that by my tech and see what he thinks. I hadn't thought of that but I think that would help the AC and the engine temps.

Unfortunately most of my issues come from the fact that I decided to keep my AC. I don't believe there is any way for me to fit a pusher with the condenser right in front of the rad. For now I'm going to try to find a slightly slimmer SPAL fan for the driver's side and ceramic coat the manifold.

Well just thought I'd update you guys, we put one SPAL 30101504 and it made a HUGE difference. No more temp issues so far, waiting for a hotter/humid day to really give it a test. And so far we just have one on the passenger side, I'd like to try to find a way to put one on the driver's side as...

Sounds good. I'm going to order two SPALs and go from there

Yeah I'm thinking of ordering one of the SPAL fans that was recommended to me by Morrison, hopefully that helps. My tech used Mishimoto fans that flow 1150cfm, they were a lot easier to get here and we thought they'd be just as good as the SPAL.

We threw in an aluminum radiator with two slim fans, we couldn't make the stock fan work on the passenger side.Two slim 12 inch fans but I think the main problem is that my car has AC so it could just be the condensor causing my issues. Is it okay to use a manifold blanket on this manifold...

@MorrisonFab @black97spyder @1990TSIAWDTALON @llxkevinxll Hey guys, quick question for you. Have you guys kept an eye on your coolant temps with link? I took my car out for the first drive today and my tuner said my temps are on the high side (around 210ish). We were catching a lot of red lights...

Hey guys I'm having a friend do some work on my car but he's hit a snag with the injectors. I bought them from a DSM group on Facebook, they had been sent to Precision to be cleaned/flowed and they came back with fresh seals and pintle caps but it doesn't seem like the pintle cap is small enough...

Perfect, this should work out fine then.

Well I'll try the new fitting I have on the way, if that doesn't work then I might have to wait for yours while I finish up everything else left on the build.

Yeah I ended up just ordering a straight hose end, it looks much smaller than the 45 degree fitting so hopefully I can get away with just using one straight and one 45 degree. I'll update with pictures if I get it on okay. I really can't clock the center section any more otherwise I'll have...

This oil return line is going to drive me nuts. Just got back from RTM and tried to put it on but the way the turbo is positioned there's no way I can get the fittings on. I've got it in the perfect position for the intercooler piping to clamp onto it but that makes the oil drain be angled a...

Wow sounds pretty extreme, I appreciate the advice. I never would've expected something like that from a boost leak test. I'll just try to clamp the shit out of it on both ends and keep a good distance.

Awesome info, thanks guys. I don't really mind spending the extra money for something that'll last so I'm going with the RTM kit, thankfully that should conclude the turbo/manifold install. Just have to do cams/springs and injectors/intake manifold next LOL. So much to do, so little time.For...
