Thanks fellas appreciate it a lot for the help have you guys kept the turbo? As my mechanic said turbo on it is new but the are a piece of s**t and the biggest problem of all with the 3ltrd so I'm looking for a new one but what to get? Don't want a massive over kill turbo
How you finding the zorst boots? I'm gonna get the muffler cut out soon on my 3inch redback system...Keep the turbo healy. Nothing wrong with them IMO. It's only the boost control that a lot of mechanics can't get their head around, thats why they say its a POS. There is better turbo's don't get me wrong but how far do you go?
Also the PWR IC too boots? Whats your thoughts? I'm tempted to run a screw driver through mine just so I can get a better one.

Keep the turbo healy . Exhaust is great -goes and drives better ,EGT temps are lower and fuel economy better -big win . pwr IC is great . It replaced the factory one which had more leaks in it than a sieve . pwr do changeover exchange and reuse the end tanks and weld in there own cores which are meant to be better .
The price of excellence is dicipline , the cost of mediocrity is dissapointment .
Shite heals how fast you reckon you can get a 3lt to go. Mine will blow most others away from a set of lights, Boots I think from memory the new end cover give about 40% extra volume in your IC
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
Is there room to mount a front mount intercooler strapped to the bonnet with 2fans like mudrunners gq or is it just abit of overkill for the 3ltr as the best quote so far has been $1480 delivered for a top mount seems expensive to me
IMO I'd be going for efficiency more than all out power. Those larger IC's compared to larger end tanks TIG welded onto OE IC would be a good comparo, IMO I'd go the larger OE end tanks and spend the rest on something else.,
If its all out power you want you should have brought a 4.5 or 4.8 and bolted a turbo to it, problem solved

the three lts are good but you have to respect that they are a light motor
start going big for power and you.l loose in economy
