Hi guys!

I`m about to install the MCX 180 kit on my Nytro and I want it to be bulletproof.

I`ve read about some guys who has had some problems with the pressure being too high / or low caused by a frozen TCV valve.

Is this normal?

I dont want to blow my engine.. .
I`m going to put on a tunnel block off plate so that there wount be so much icing on the turbo, hopefully this will help prevent the TCV from freezing up.

I might be overdoing this since I havent got any experience with this, but I just want things to be as perfect as they can be from the beginning.
Some guys relocate the TCV , maybe I should do that too?

I`m also going to install a prosport turbo gauge with a programmable warning function so that the background color of the gauge changes when the pressure gets higher then it should. There is also an optional extra warning light that can be installed. (I`ve ordered that too).
The gauge also has peak hold/recall so that it is easy to keep track of how much boost you had on the last pull.

Hmm I allready like the turbo stuff and I havent even got my package yet hehe:)
