Re: very long turbo project

That 6500rpm doesn't mean auto specific. A regular ecu redlines at 6500rpms with any tranny to it I believe but could be wrong? But yes the stage 2 would let the higher revs while reading more airflow.

Re: very long turbo project

I used the official Subaru tools for my piston removal I was lucky enough to barrow from a tech there, but while I was looking for some tool at Advanced Auto Parts I saw that they sell the exact same tool there, its just a needle nose pliers a really long handle. Think theres a pic of the tools in my turbo thread.
