Holy hell, thats nice!
Power is nothing without control,
Control is not fun without power.
Traction is over rated.

Received some nice goodies from the Rezlo store:
Boost gauge and Oil Temp, will show install pics soon.
Oil temp and boost gauge
Although the Apexi Power FC displays boost, I would rather have other things there on quick reference like knock values, and the fact that it displays in mm/hg is not easy to adapt to.

Absolutely nothing, waiting for new crank, bearings and seals.
Then reassemble, and see what happens.

No idea on the cost, Andre is sourcing me a new one, did not pay for a broken one in the first place, that and the bearings 2.
Got slapped on the wrists when I asked for a JUN billet one, R50k
