finally got boosted
Hello all, it's me again. I finally got my GReddy kit fully installed and tuned. I just got the numbers back today, 270 hp and 175 tq at 7 psi. I tuned it at Polk Performance in Bryant AR. I'm not sure what other info you guys want so feel free to ask questions.
Oh, btw... Who do I see about one of those nifty badges?

Yes, I installed it myself. The only reason I have it at 7 psi is because that's the way it came. I've got to get some bills taken care of first before I mess with anything else. The tuner said that when I get rid of my stock exhaust it should free up around 20 hp or so? Does that sound right? I plan on having a custom 3" turbo back system built before too long. I'll get some pics posted up soon.
So far I love the kit. It had everything I needed. (hence it being a "kit") I purchased it from kix and he helped me out alot with my several annoying questions. He even rewired my E-Manage harness from an AP2 to an AP1. It took about 12 to 14 hours total. I would just work on it for a few hours a night after work, until my mechanic Brian came over the following weekend and helped me finish it up. It pulls hard from about 3500 all the way up to around 7 or so. I have a bald set of Invos on the rear right now and they LOVE getting loose. After I had it tuned I got into it pretty good on the service road and they spun all the way thru mid 2nd gear, nothing fancy but it put a big grin on my face.

Congrats on the kit and the number look real good for that PSI and stock exhaust.
I would not do a 3", just do the greddy 70mm single on another type of 70mm single and a HFC. This will help your top end.
Make sure you get a good boost controller. And you can turn the boost ap a bit more 9-10 psi.
What type of dyno did you use?
