I don't know why he did it, but I've read that the f22 are cast iron, while the f23 are some other material that don't withstand high pressure setups quite as well. The only reason I've heard the oter way is because the f23's are cheap and can be replaced cheapily (I've heard as little as $300)

ok to answer the questions in order that i can remember them...
i speant a lot of money on the car, mostly in tuning. but im not gonna tell you, jsut that its a lot
the bumper wasnt on right so i hung it on for photos. its ziptied on now lol
im not sure what im running, i dynod at a lot of differnt numbers and the car had a lot of things repaired after the dyno... but i can tell you that after i get retuned with my new exaust and wideband... ill be at about 250/260
i swapped to the f22 Im because you need to convert the obd2 iacv to the obd1 iacv. i was going t do it on the f23, but it kept leaking boost through the cracks, so i was lucky enough to have a full f22 to take parts off right there, so we swapped the intake manifold and all sensors onto the car, it later went on to hold 20psi and above in the boost leak test
right now im running 4.5psi on stock internals. when i redo my exaust im going up to 9psi and i may build the motor later this year but its not definate because if im happy with the car after the exaust work, ill be done with the engine.
