Charlottetown,
I hate to ask questions like this but are 100mph traps possible on the t25 without nitrous?
I want to hit 100mph traps this season as cheap as possible which means staying with the stock turbo. My current mods are in my profile and in addition over the winter I ported the stock t25 and 2g manifold to match a 7cm^2 gasket as well as majorly ported the stock 2g o2 housing.
I also found that I had a pretty significant pre turbo exhaust leak between the manifold and head that I was most likely costing me some power and spool. The pic below will give you an idea of how bad the leak was. Its fixed now.

So the question is what should I do now to hit 100mph? I want to do it as cheaply as possible and do it right the first time as I have wasted money in the past. I fixed everything maintenance wise over the winter right down to any tiny fluid leak, replaced all vacume lines etc.
