Nice numbers. Seems similar in efficiency to my HP kit. I put down 335rwhp / 205rwtq on 7.25psi (.5BAR spring). I was running 405 / 300 at 1BAR (14.7PSI).
After that, I built the motor (9:1 Laskey motor and Port Flow head), upped boost to 22psi, and got 522rwhp out of it.
That was with HP Performance manifold, 38mm Tial WG, gt35r turbo, 750cc injectors (were not maxed out until 22psi on the built motor).
Need to post pics of that thing installed!

But this isn't the same one if they're in Oregon. The one you're thinking about is run by Sharif in Georgia. 
Looking good op. Can you share their website address?

Those are one of best looking custom manifolds....They should put that custom turbo kit on market...
Oh btw, thanks for the link.

Quick update:
Picked up the car today from Forged. The car feels amazing!!
The power/boost comes in so smooth that from the driver seat, it doesn't feel that fast until you look down at the speedo. From the passenger seat its a whole different story.
I will be doing a lot of road testing with this prototype as my daily driver. Making some detours through our twisty mountain roads instead of the usual highway.
I was monitoring both the ECT and the IAT through the TunerView on the way home today in stop and go rush hour traffic, everything was within spec (nice and cool), and the car didn't have any hiccups what so ever.
The plan is for me to put 500 hard miles on the car and then Forged will evaluate the oil/spark plug condition as well as manifold condition. We will also be throwing the car on a Dyno Jet soon to get some new numbers.

I will snap a few pics tonight and get them posted up. I have a lot of washing/detailing a head of me between now and Dyno Day (2 nights).
On a side note: I know a lot of people think I will be having vibration issues, but so far so good. The manifold is hold up very strong.
