I spent a lot of time making the gaugeART can gauge work in my Kpro4 S2000... All to find out how difficult it is to look at a gauge during WOT with turbo power :-( :-D

Anybody have updates?
I sent my intercooler out to have the endtanks powdercoated black, and I'll use the Eastwood black radiator spray paint for the core. I removed my motor mount to experiment with melting holes (1/4, 3/8, and or 1/2 inch) in the mount insert (yellow) to reduce vibration getting transmitted to the chassis.

I’m curious is the new Garrett G-Series line of turbos will bolt on and fit
https://www.atpturbo.com/gseries/garrettgseries.html
the new g25-660is rated for 660hp with a tiny 54mm turbo. That thing should spool fast as hell and still make 600whp. I have the gen 1garrett gtx3076r on my ptuning kit and I would love some better spool and kit myself in the upper 500s for whp. I know the gen 2 gtx3071r is rated for 650hp and should spool faster and make more power than my gen 1 gtx3076r and everything will bolt in but the new g series turbo on paper sound unbelievable for such a tiny turbo.

I got tuned a couple weeks ago. Had serious boost creep issues, creeped to 17psi and made 450whp and 385 ft lbs on a dyno dynamics. I had to weld an additional piece of plate on the boost restrictor plate to keep the boost in check. The car made good power even with the additional restriction at 425whp at 11psi on e50/92 mix and 385 whp on 92 at 14 psi. We were speculating that it may because my charge piping is so short with the V mount compared to the typical FMIC setup. It's really too bad that ptuning didn't decide to have a proper scalloped wastegate inlet from the collector, or just go with a billet collector that flowed well. The straight 90* flange from the collector was a big ****ing mistake.

I have my kit installed and it is running on a conservative street tune on the wastegate spring for now until I can get it on dyno after my vacation. Hopefully, that will be in a couple weeks. What do you guys running Gtx3076 gen 2 have your VTEC rpms set to?
