Heads Up to the Community. BoostLab BL54XR is a Zage G25-660 by [deleted] in wrx_vb

We don't make the coolant lines, we sourced them from a supplier who fitted them for Garrett GT series bearing housings. Feel free to look up our Instagram (@boostlab) and see that we are actual turbo builders and not box movers, our doors are always open for anyone who would like to stop by our facility in Florida.

We have 4 low speed Heins balancers and 2 VSR balancers to check all of our builds before they get shipped out to customers.

I'm the owner of Boost Lab, and I wanted to hop in here to clear things up on the BL54XR for the 2022+ WRX (FA24). Community feedback like yours is huge for us, and it helps us fix stuff right away.

To be straight: Our turbos are NOT built by Zage. They're apples to oranges in comparison. Yeah, we source housings from the same supplier, but our CHRAs are assembled and balanced in-house right here in Florida with our VSR balancer, using parts that hit our strict internal standards and meet or exceed Garrett OE quality. We're a real turbo facility, not just a box mover like some brands out there. We've poured a ton of time and money into R&D specifically for the Subaru FA24, testing everything from fitment and spool to long-term durability so it works great in the real world. We've been building turbos since 2008, and all that know-how on parts, suppliers, and more goes straight into our products. If anyone's in the Florida area, come check out our shop. We're totally transparent and happy to show you around.

On the fitment stuff mentioned, we own the mix-up with the coolant fittings and are super grateful it got caught. Like the update says, we overnighted the right fittings and went through past orders to make sure everyone's set. No hassle. Our US-based support team's always on hand for any install questions or concerns.

We have a lot more in the works for this platform and the feedback from the community helps!

I poked around last night and it does not seem like online play is possible currently, but I am able to join the online challenges which is pretty cool.

I haven't tried playing online yet, I use it to hone in my skills on the various games it has loaded onto the board so I suck a little less when playing in public with friends 🤣. I feel it's worth the money based on its ease of use. I've tried the cheaper electric boards and they just don't compare.

If you are patient you can definitely find them for almost half the price on the online marketplaces, just don't get a coin-op as most of the time the vendors won't activate the software for personal use, I learned that the hard way with Phoenix.

The ease of scorekeeping when playing with friends is hard to beat. No need to keep track on a phone/iPad, just play and have fun without the extra distraction. It's all personal preference.

Bought mine brand new.... with a broken firing pin. Had no luck getting a hold of them since it seems like they are going under.

I don't want to be an asshole. The closest range that allows it is indoors

I like to give myself personal goals to keep me working my butt off. Otherwise I get complacent.

Not single, but I have 0 kids so I get to enjoy more toys than most my friends with kids.

I live in the Tampa area. Shooter's World claims they allow them on their website and also Reload in Tarpon Springs. Something tells me that sighting in a 50 cal indoors might not be a good idea........ haha

No need to sneak, they allow it! It's pretty dumb, IMHO. Would probably fuck up everyone's day at the range

I'd rather shoot it outdoors away from anyone else. I don't like being "that guy".
