Well, got the 20g in on saturday, but not without problems. The housing was not rotated the correct way to match up to the oil return line, we had to grind the right side of the 2g manifold to fit it on (things that should be done in the future by Darkside before shipping) and we had to fab up a WG dump tube with flexible exhaust repair tubing, as we couldn't find anyone to weld that day (this makes a LOUD dumptube). My problem now, is that with removing a fan (I think I have a bad rad. cap as well) the coolant gets a LIL warm, and likes to bubble into the overflow. For now, I am running 14psi until the issues get ironed out, but it pulls like 18-19 on the 16g. I can't wait to get it all straight and get the new clutch in, crank the boost to 20psi, and own EVERYONE around my town. My g/f thinks it sounds like shit, but I LOVE the sound of the dumping gate!! Now...to tune!
 
Thanks man....tuning is gonna be interesting with this one...550s and a 20g is kinda pushing it.
 
Nice job bro. I did mine this weekend also. We worked all weekend. We also had a few hiccups. But it is all good now. Running rich only because I couldn't get my pocketlogger to link up with the car.

But I am happy you got yours in, we will have to meet up. ;)
 
Good luck.
it's should be fun when you get it ironed out.

It's never a complete bolt on afair.
