numbers look pretty similar to mine, at similar boost pressure (437whp on a dyno dynamics at 15psi). same dyno too, but might be adjusted differently. I'm thinking that we're putting too few boost into the turbos we're running, not maximizing their sweet spots. You planning to retune? I'm probably going to retune if I decide to get the FBM intake manifold and up the boost to 20psi.

That seems to be the prevailing thought (not enough boost). Going to retune this spring (24-25psi); maybe sooner if I find a great deal on a trans before then.

Haven't updated the thread in a while; (cold) compression numbers were 225 across the board (+/- 1-2psi). I also decided to buy the Alloy Craft AEM EMS Mount:




Installed (not my car, but the mounting points are the same, obviously):

That mount is nice. Any luck finding a transmission deal yet?

Swapped rear bumpers with a friend (I'm not a fan of the INGS+1, sorry Ron ). Paula (username 'PaulaDanielleSchultz') made the trip up from VA beach to meet at my house
