Thanks. It has kind of a different look with the silver anodizing. Kind of pewter looking.

Nah, I thought about that. I guess we could have had PQ stick his finger in the turbo to show that it was real... Ouch !

Funny you caught that. Yeah, between the stainless O-Rings and the Aircraft glue we put on it, it can hold 28 psi, but that is because it is almost like JB welding the head to the block...lol. To push it the rest of the way, ya gotta go with the 6 bolt heads. Plus those will pick up a little more CFM too.
Since the goal of the motor when this all started was 800 hp - 1100 hp, you can see how it kind of snowballed...
