BoostfoSHO 2015 SHO Build thread!

[ZSHO]

Does anyone here have the ATPs with turbos smart wastegates? Is it even possible to upgrade the wastegates on the ATPs? Any pictures of the set up and or idea how to properly adjust the wastegates would be appreciated.

Edit: I found out the ATP wastegate is already an updated version so no need for the turbosmart

It will require a Tune update IIRC! Provided you work with your tuner! The stock IWG actuators are 4lb springs and have a good amount of preload set from the factory.
The Turbosmart-IWG are 7lb springs AFAIK! Dunno. Best of luck and indeed look awesome.  Z

The ATPs have a bent rod design on their wastegate and the turbosmart or factory wastegates doesn't that's what my main concern is. I'm sure if it installation was possible then matt could tune them. But Mike B told me the ATPs already have an upgraded wastegate to match the bigger turbos.

They've finally arrived. Bc coilovers with Swift spring upgrade in the front and rear spring, which I find weird because every other place I looked only offered the Swift spring upgrade for the front.

Interested to hear of your experiences with these, as I will likely have to consider these very same options (& spring upgrades) when it comes time to replacing my Megan's.

Plus I have the added weight of the sound system now to boot.

Part #'s would be great if you don't mind providing those for the community's edification. TIA.

I'll definitely follow up once I get them installed.

At least the fronts will swap in SWIFTly for you   so much easier on 2013+ compared to 2010-12.  Take the opportunity to inspect hubs and clean/grease as needed.

A few more pictures. And also I scheduled the installation for next week, this I'm not messing with and installing my self since there's no alignment shop anywhere near I'll have the shop install and align it.

Having a shop install is so nice.  Drop off, pick up done!  And exciting to pull up and see it outside lowered!!

Finally installed the ATPs and changed spark plugs and brake pads. Fresh oil as well.

8 hours total with a few breaks in between. Didn't need to drop the subframe. So that was good.

You pull the passenger axle to fit those puppies in?

Yes, pulled the axle out and it fit right in.

Good work, Boost, and good catch, Jordan!

With the passenger axle out, how hard was it to replace the rear turbo? Honestly?

Once you remove the axle and the bracket that holds the axle... The one shown in the last picture is not hard to remove the turbo just remove the heat shield like in the front turbo then remove the bolts from the turbo to manifold and it slides right out. The front one took about hour and half to 2 hours the rear one did take about 3 then the rest was all just putting it back together

So after my first log Matt is telling me I have a boost leak. I'm gonna go over all my clamps and connections.

do you guys have any way of pressure testing the system to test for leaks?
