The longer story is in another thread.

I hope to get it back today. Waiting to call back. I was without it a month for the original build in November and them about a month later, it went back in. Caught it before damage was done elsewhere.

Thanks!

Ok, so the latest is the turbo is back out and back to Turbonectics. Apparently, their idea of a rebuild includes making the turbo worse than it was shipped in the first place. Before rebuild, the turbo leaked (minor) under high boost. Now, after the rebuild, it pours out oil.
So the guys at Slowmotion already have the turbo out and shipped back for another go around...

grrrrrrr

Take 2...The turbo arrived yesterday and my G may be up and running this week. Once the roads clear, a proper photo shoot will be in order!
