Mike,
Glad things finally went your way and you have the car up and running! Sorry about past issues with the turbo and what not, tried to help the best I could even though it was beyond my control, but again glad everything is finally done now. Power and curve look great by the way!
Give me a call if you need those high impedence 1000cc injectors, I have them in stock and like always Ill hook you up!
Be safe with the car!

i actually have my boost curve too. looks like i make max power closer to 17.5psi, if that counts at all lol.
max boost occurs at 7144rpm and max power happens somewhere around 8500. no idea how that works!

still haven't decided if i'm going to up the injectors yet or not. i'm pretty sure i'm going to stick with this manifold, though.
took the car out today for a nice drive around town and had a lot of fun. took it easy for the most part but i had my moments
i can't say the car drives like stock because what would be some serious bull (its got a turbo hanging off of it!) but it does drive very very well. i will say it starts up like stock and idles very well. it even returns to idle better than it used to - i have been plagued by the OEM map sensor forever.
so far, so good. i'll chime in from time to time with updates as i know there aren't a ton of us using kpro or a gt series turbo on an inline kit. i am predicting all of the usual problems associated with turbo setups - backing out bolts, melted couplers, and so on. i dont expect them yet but i am awaiting their arrival!
one thing i have noticed - the oil lines on the relocation kit as well as the filter itself get HOT. like really hot. maybe i should run an oil cooler.
