So took it for a 30 minute spin after work.
At no point and time did it burst into flames. Coolant temp stayed normal. Vac was in the right range. Smoke was non existent under the hood, and no smoke from the exhaust. No leaks. I think my problem is solved.
Initial impression........HOOOOLLLYYYYY FFFFF.
Tis quick, It kinda scared me when I stomped on the gas, I wasn't expecting the power that happened. I didn't realize how bad the turbo was, compared to the VF39 the td04 spooled up about as fast as a dyno queen supra. The td04 was only hitting approx 11 of the 14 psi it was supposed to be hitting. The vf39 hit 17.6 psi, it should only hit 16.5 but it tapered off closer to red line as expected. I think running a catless DP and the turbo inlet could be causing the 1-2psi boost spike. No instances of knock reported though during these spikes.
I'm still nervous and freaked out that tomorrow it will burst into flames or the smoke will return, cause I am just that way.
But so far.....
