Thanks. Na im not gonna wrap it. I like the look of clean stainless. Ive driven the car over 500 miles so far. I have monitored iats with my scan tool a lot and iats stay within a couple degrees of outside temperature most of the time. Unless I set in traffic and of course piping will heat up a little then but when I get going comes right back down. Piping looks close in the pic but actually its a inch or so off the dp and touches the turbo blanket barely. But the blanket does its job and I can lay forearm on the blanket even after a crazy drive.

Just ordered a hallman pro manual boost controller today so I can start playing around. Im to cheap to buy electronic lol. I just needed something where I could change boost levels without having to switch springs irritating....!

Still gonna wait and add the wideband before I go up. Probably set methanol to come on at 9 psi that way I can leave it active all the time even when I have it turned down. Cause it won't spray unless set psi is reached so all basically will be controlled by the little **** lol.

Funny thing is it works backwards. Screwing it in reduces boost and out increases. I hooked the boost reference from intake to the straight nipple coming out of the end of controller and the other off the side of controller to the top port on my jgs wastegate. The bottom port of the wastegate is also referenced to boost off the intake. Not that I care but it just works backwards. As long as it works im cool with it and it definitely does. All the way in im at 8psi which is my gate spring pressure. Just playing with it last night I run it all the way out and half throttle in third gear pull it hit close to 15psi very fast. Like a lot less than 4000rpm fast. Usually takes until 4000 to hit 8psi so WOW. Since I have no wideband yet and methanol is not set to come on that will be the last time I experiment until I get wideband. But heck yeah 7psi at the twist of a **** lol.

Well instructions say it will only add 5psi. Guess the way I hooked up it adds 7 lol. Long as it works. It just shocked me how much earlier boost came in with controller turned up. Would like to overlay my Dyno graphs when I go back to Dyno and just see the difference.

Going to 12psi and will probably stop there. Don't wanna have to swap things for a while. To much going on in life at the moment.

Thanks Man. Yeah I have an lq4 on standby but figured id push whats in the car first. The clutch is awesome. With the Tick adjustable master the setup is the best ive ever felt in a fbody for street driving. Had no slipping so far. But im only about 520-530rwhp now. Bout to turn the power up though and then we will see haha.

Hoping to pick up another 100rwhp which will be low mid 600rwhp range. from what I've learned through some friends these turbo seem to do better at higher boost levels... I could push the hp on up there if I'd jack my timing up.. But its set on 14 degrees now and that's where it's going to stay for safety

That clutch is beastly up to 700rwhp. It will hold everything you're willing to throw at it Nate and Stephen. I think a lot of people under estimate that clutch. I think Stephen even had some apprehension in his voice when I recommended a Stage 3 single disc clutch for a turbo car, but as he now knows...it works very well.
