Well, I'm impulsive, what can I say. Southbend stage 3 clutch, Verus clutch fork and pivot! Interestingly enough, the clutch itself is an Exedy manufactured product. The pressure plate is just spray painted red, the paint smell was quite pungent when I opened the box, and there was some parts they missed. Not that it matters, just putting that info out there for people who may be hoping for something expertly executed with aesthetics in mind.
I love that break-in instructions are included ON PAPER. No webpage deciphering or hunting.


The clutch fork is much more heavy duty feeling than I had expected. I have absolutely no doubt that this piece could withstand literally anything. The pivot looks nice, bling honestly.

Got a wideband put together for me at VEMS with the Bosche 4.9LSU sensor. Unsure what I'm going to add as secondary (it's a dual display) but I'll figure it out.

Decided to measure the turbo, since nobody seems to run or have data on it.

Just to rehash- it's a Boostlab BL5858 journal bearing turbo.

Don't need it real bad, it can wait; just interested to see the stage differences if there are any in their clearances.

Pumped to see your build come together.

Hah no, IAG provided and assembled, I just gave them $, I am not an engine builder.

"Getting all the pieces" means for the build in general
