34276, Just put on the 55mm T/B

Overall it feels better...more responsive especially on the low ens where I need it to spool the turbo. I also took out the EGR pipe. I left the valve on and the connections in tact. I used two pieces of a soda can to block-off the exhaust port. The intake port didn't go as well - I tried the tin and RTV..I need to fabricate one out of some thicker alluminum cuz it leaks making my revs goes up everytime I put it into neutral, also not letting me boost confidently. A good note is that my vacuumm is stronger now 17 Hg.
