hey guys! had my VLT berlina for few months, sitting on 10 psi, (bleed valve) very nice 3 inch, lowered, and rock hard shockies, pretty nice. It's an Auto, and it's crappy launches are annoying me. I was looking at fitting a rb20t box to start off with, i am assuming about 500 bucks should get me one, anyone know of any huge weaknesses in these boxes. Also haw much for a strengthened Auto? I have leaking injectors, i have been told that to buy new ones is about the same price as larger ones, any one messed with them? Lastly picked up a Merc AMG intercooler today, 600wx300h and approx 40thick, for $200, pretty deccent size, anyway, i wanna run 15 pounds, but i also dont wont to be replacing turbos every few months, i realise my box will blow itself to bits, but it maybe the excuse i need to change it. Any idea with my mods what quater should expect? i suppose a trip to the motorplex will answer that. Thanks Happy Boostn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
