SBS, called it!  Do you use an impact on those clamps?  LOL

Were the clamps included with the hose?  Looks like a great upgrade to ensure no boost leaks in the future.

I hear a rumor he was looking to upgrade to 60mm trim turbos so he can maximize his direct port injection setup... clamps are just an insurance policy!!!

While changing my oil (Amsoil Signature) today, I found my PTU covered with pink transmission fluid......

No bueno indeed.  Yes still under warranty, so I'm not 'THAT' worried about it. 

I'll have my mechanic diagnose next week.  Hopefully something minor like seals but who knows.

The heaviest concentration of fluid was where the halfshaft was coming thru the PTU, but I couldn't tell if that was the source, or just where it was pooling.

The new one measures 1244 cm (Perfect Fit)for the 13+SHO. Z  :)

Finally stopped putting off my rear 2013+ caliper/ rotor upgrade. Been running the 2013+ fronts for over a year now. Also prepped, por15'd and painted all 4 of them. New Bendix fleetlock pursuit pads all the way round. 140mph-0mph fade free stops with minimal pedal effort. My God the stopping power is amazing. Warm them up and they stop quicker. Can't say enough great things about this setup.

Megan coilovers installed with a new wheel bearing on the front driver side. Rides better than ever! Seems like the sho is maxed out until I get money (or even want to) go down the road of having a motor built. Pictures to come when I get her cleaned up.
