New turbo is in....and it doesn't leak! There are some fluids burning off, but that happens every time from the mess the coolant makes. It only ran for a minute as it's late and I don't want to **** of the neighbors. So far so good!

So, what DME software reprogramming, if any, are you running to properly utilize the new JCW turbo ?
