I went threw Todd aka RUNUTS on the forum as he said he had an account with them, only went with http://store.forcedp..._Code=DSM-Turbo as they dont advertise DBB for the DSM.

Did you order direct through FP, or a distributor? Weirdly people seem to get better service via their Vendors than direct. The Green is a hell of a turbo, did you order the dual ballbearing version, or the older plain bearing type?

The new one has the HTA73 wheel now and anti surge comp housing.

He gets heaps of phone calls so if you called and didn't leave a voicemail then he won't return the call. If he returned all his missed calls he would spend all day on the phone.

Its also all the text messages asking if there is any updates thats i have left that have not been returned. As mentioned, parts were meant to be around 2 weeks.
If parts couldnt be supplied in that time, a bit of communiction would have gone a long way as i had a trip to Brisbane planned for Friday gone for head/cam work, turbo install and tune on Tuesday ready for Sprints plus EVO Nats later this month.
If you spent over $1800, and parts are over 2 weeks past their expected delivery date. Im sure youd like some communication on a delivery date.

Im not overly gutted, but when your work out ways your days off, planning how to get things done and get cars to Brisbane can be a pain. Plus lining up with mechanics and tuners in advance to line up also takes some doing.

I feel the same way champ. All it akes is a quick call or text ( a response ) to ensure the buyer ( person that has paid money in advance ) that there discision & purchase is safe.

I have never delt with him , but if some can return calls to make the sale in the first place , they should be able to return call after the money is paid.

Hopefully he just has a legitimate reason for NOT returning your calls & texts.

Well I've personally never had any issues with communication or getting parts from him and I've bought everything for mine from him except for things I get directly from mitsi.

Have a new set of shoes for the Evo. 15x8 40 offset with Advan A048's.
Had to C section and gusset the rear trailing arms to fit.
Added some Megan adjustable camber and toe arms.
A048's went 0.8sec quicker than the AD08's but was unable to get any kind of heat into them before each run. Still quite grippy.

HTA DSM76, Tial wastegate, FP manifold, FP intake, ID1000 injectors, AEM Fuel reg and rail.
Will decide tomorrow if i go Kelford's, GSC's or Camtech's.
I have enter the QLD sprint chmpionships at Morgan next month so dont have time to rebuild, so will bolt it all on with a mild tune and pull it back down next year.

Been thinking of painting them white as they look similar to the original OZ's but wider. But not sure yet, will see how the brake dust goes.

Looking into the Willwood calliper set up, but the kit that i found i dont think will fit http://www.freakypar...lwood-Brake-kit

I had that same setup on mine a while back, A small upgrade but not a major one, they would fit in the right 15" rim
I had 15x6.5 and I could fit them with a 8mm spacer, offset was 38 from memory.

If you are looking at that kit you should consider the mitsubishi 380 rotor as its the same diameter and height as the evo 4 rotor but a lot thicker
(28mm or 30mm, i cant recall) I have one in the shed still so I can double check

I just had a look, will be a tight squeeze as it looks like on circumference approx 14mm clearance (calliper)and width plenty., Ive got swap the wheels back over in the next couple of days and will measure the wheel clearances then. Have you seen any calliper set ups for standard rotor sizes?

I had the wilwoods on both sizes, to be honest in a race aplication if your not increasing rotor size its not a decent upgrade

as I said even the 294 was only maginalyy better for me
