hopefully this will allow me to 1 run less than 17psi on the street and 2 tell for sure if my stumble is boost related or not

It looks very nice.hope it works good.Most all the serious cars run tial wastegates..they work excellent and are super stable at any boost level.
They look great too. I have a 44 v band on my 97 talon and will likely be getting same on on planned turbo 99 ta.

ok well i still have the same boost creep, but it does happen about 5psi lower so its good and a let down at the same time.

i was able to run pump gas only, found out my tune was a lot closer than i expected.. so one less thing to try to fix.

feels smoother without the meth spraying.. perhaps its not all evaporating because its still chilly out.

im spraying about 17% of my fuel as methanol when i do.

anybody who has bs3 i'd like to take a look at my graphs.. running out of time.

next week maybe will dyno no meth and race gas.
