Hey, I finally got the turbo on without too many problems, the old one had self destructed, car played up for a couple of years on boost and I'd cleaned out the IACV and TPS but it didn't make any difference so I took it to that useless thieving prick in Mandurah, $150 and 55min later he had made no difference so I decided to check the filter for some reason a few days later and AGGGHHHHHH, 3 of the 8 sections of foam were not there, so I grabbed a stock filter, sprayed the AFM and everything was perfect until about 100k's later when it stopped boosting, parked it up about 6 months ago and used my motor home as a daily but missed my toy so I bought Rslib72's lovely little VF23 and she's all sweet so lesson learned ...... bent shaft and almost seized bearing on a $2,580 turbo because I'm slack lol, check your filter
