Re: Chicago Crew Thread #2
just be aware that it's a lot harder to put together than it is to take apart... I "dissected" one of my stockers after I got Skywalker's stockers and saw that as far as putting it back together you need to make sure that the shaft is balanced and that there is minimal free-play otherwise you're gonna have blow-by and all the other wonderful misadventures of turbo failure
