No internal vid of that. Tha's the internal working of a variable vane turbo. Very rare. Ive got one on my car by aerodyne, but they dont make them anymore because their owner died. I believe the new 997 turbo is now using them aswell.
Sorry for going off topic. Byron whos doing your tuning?

it is being tuned by a local efi shop that has experience with the tec3. hopefully i will have it back this weekend. i told them to tune it for 400whp or as much as the clutch will hold.
i am going to go and watch the tuning process so i will hopefully get some good video!
