First Impressions: ER rubber bushings and Rarlyl8 exhaust

It has been a long winter with the car on jack-stands undergoing a turbo outfitting and PB to rubber suspension retrofit. Our streets proved too harsh for 28-21 TB setup with PB bushings and rear mono-balls. I replaced the PB's with ER's rubber bushings front and rear, switched TB's to 26-19, and replaced the mono-balls with rubber. It is a night and day difference. ER has a great product.
Likewise, the RarlyL8 turbo exhaust looks and sounds fabulous. I was a bit leery of the potential noise level after looking at it (through it that is) but it turned out to be really sweet. Great work Brian. Now I have to be patient and let the turbo oil rings seat before I can really open it up and hear that exhaust roar.

Glad it all worked out. That engine looks to have potential!

I typically wear in the turbo in one day by driving it all around town in traffic, stop and go, all different driving and heat cycling conditions. Then take it to the shop and sit over night. Next day drive it to warm level and let it rip! Do several boost runs and cool down runs then cool 'er down with a slow drive home. Good to go for the long haul after that. I'm currently on year 10 with my 7200.
