Good, I'm waiting on 660 cc's and ecu. The hks2835r feels great but its too risky to drive with stock injectors. This turbo spools real fast and has been making 17-18 psi with the avc-r turned off! very scary. 12 psi is safe with the stock 370's, but no more. I think that the 17 psi is being made due to the int. wastegate being too small because my actuator should only allow 7-9. also got an act 6 puck, due to shitty spec clutch burning up.

Hey Justin...glad to hear the car is running well...just be careful with that boost...I blew my engine running 17-18 psi after 3 runs down the track.

Maybe you could try plumbing the wastegate directly into a boost source to see if it lowers your boost any...

Later

Welcome. I'm assuming there aren't many grey Silvas around here w/aluminum wings, I've got some videos of you running earlier in the year @ Natural Bridge if you want them. BTW what shop in Christiansburg do you run?
