I can't remember who bought my ko4, I ended up selling everything seperatly, If you want I can check my paypal.

I'm going with the stock back section for sleeperness, and also to quiet it down a little. Not sure if the whole sleeper thing is gonna work out, so I may only use the rear for winter, and paint one side of the intercooler black and flip it for summer

A turbo engine gets all the backpressure it needs from the turbo.
I can't figure out why you'd get no low end though. Without the resistance the turbo spins up faster, which should give you power earlier.

It did spool earlier but before boost it was a dog, huge loss in power. If I can easily notice it in my seat, its a pretty big loss.

I think we all can agree you need some back pressure, and the turbo doesnt do it all, I have a full 2.5 (some mandel bent and some not) and it works out pretty well, theres not gona be that much of a difference.
