Greddy Turbo Install

I'm new to s2ki.com, but have been reading posts for quite some time now. I know Mikemjohnson has already touched on this subject, but am wondering what would be best. I also don't have a boost controller right now. Only A/F and boost. I have a greddy turbo kit on my car right now and all I have is a megan test-pipe. I recently bought some N1 turbo mufflers and was trying to decide if I should run 3" back or just leave it at the stock piping. Sorry if someone has already answered this, but I want to make my car perform the best it can.. thanks
thanks revenge. I was thinking about just welding on the mufflers, but I think that might kind of defeat the purpose of even having the mufflers. Prob would not gain much if not anything. Since I have already spent so much on the kit and still need to tune the thing I don't have the cash to swap out for a whole new exaust. Would a manual boost controller help at all?? I looked at the boost creep pages and people were saying that the internal wastegate is the problem. This is kind of a hard situation with this kit because everyone says that turbo cars work best with open flow , but this kit doesn't want that. I guess my TP is throwing things off too though and unfortunately I don't have it anymore. At WOT right now I stay at around 8psi or so. Any further assistance would be greatly appreciated...thanks

IMO most of the boost creep is due to the tune and a majority can be solved with tuning over the stock greddy tune. 

anyway I have the Invidiia V3, crept out of control with a test pipe but holds steady even in 10F weather with the berk HFC
So basically my problem is, I would like to make my exaust piping (maybe 3" or so) but I am worried about creep. Do you guys think I should try to tune it with the TP or should I just upgrade right now????? So Joey so you recomend a berk HFC, Do you think that would help? How bad was " Out of conrol"???? Is there any other ways you guys have worked around this? And if I did decide to change it then should I put the resonator back in or should I run it straight back?
My creep was bad enough to hit 20PSI
. I would do one of two things, get any type of aftermarket exhaust, (for sound mostly), and throw on the Berk HFCm you wont creep, or do what I should of done and leave the exhaust stock and then throw in a Test Pipe, the stock Exhaust is designed very well

WOW. 20 PSI. Thats crazy. I think I am just going to keep the stock exaust on, but I might swap out the mufflers since I already bought them. Hopefully they don't make it sound like krap though. What did you have your A/F set to JOEY? I heard around 12-12.5 is good. I am kinda worried about tuning this thing though since I am in BC. Hopefully I can find someone with some experience with emanage..Thanks for your help JOEY..
Hey everyone. My current set up is just a greddy turbo with a megan test-pipe. I have a AEM air fuel set-up as well. When i started the car today my a\f gauge was readingany where from 14 to 17 at idle and then would settle down and when i reved it kinda fluttering all over the place. When i give it steady throttle it stays at around 14. It is not tuned yet...... Could I make it the drive to the tuner shop if i don't boost or is this too dangerous???
