The compression test came out perfect. It was at 14.6psi air pressure (I checked the weather) and all cylinders were around 115-120psi. 14.6 x 8.1 = 118.26. I checked the PCV system and it was good too, so I knew it had to be the turbo. I just couldn't wait for the AGP kit to get here. Oh well. It feels pretty slow but better than the smokey one most of the time.
Oh yeah and I got me some of them cool gear ratchets, just to get the turbo off easy.
Saw a BLUE with silver strips heading north on La Canada at around 3:30pm Friday the 3rd of april
That would be me. Live right around that area. I hope to make it out to a meeting spot soon to meet some of you. Let me know when the next meet is around Tucson.

There's a core group of 8 people with 5 of them being SRTs. We had 10 or 11 cars last week.
