Speaking of which, I just because a supporter 3 minutes ago. This site is easily worth half of one night's drunk taco bell budget a month

Initiation implies that you'll be staying a while

I don't think that's what you meant

Yes, toss it and get OEM half moons +

Not necessary, but I love this tool. No more hand cramps from applying RTV:

Noob checking in, stick around and you will learn through the power of online bullying.


Check out my build thread. I asked the same questions. Got the same replies. In short, 18psi is right in that to do a turbo build correctly on a 1.6 you will need to spend more. the 1.8 diff is non-negotiable, the 1.6 diffs are known to fail at STOCK POWER. I'm in the market for one but as long as you are boosted with the stock diff, be prepared to call a tow truck at any given moment.

All I needed to read was "7 months the then I'm off to college for 3 years" to know that turbo is a bad choice right now.

wait until after college. You are inviting a nightmare and a huge waste of money otherwise. IMO
