So I kinda got used to the kit by now.......do you guys all experience that early leveling out in power? It seems like it doesn't pull any better past 7k....

this is a common belief, but incorrect. power doesn't drop or level out. Everyone's graphs show power climb until redline, it's the torque that drops off, which is what you feel.

Oh no, it sounds like you will be swapping out turbo systems soon. I seems a lot of people aren't satisfied with the Greddy once they get a taste of real power. Everyone wants more!! I will be happy if I can just get to 300 and 220! Still waiting for my retune with my exhaust and checking the fuel pressure.

I still have a blast everytime I get into boost. Especially now that it is cool now.

By the way, whoever asked what a HFC is, it is a High Flow Cat (berktechnologies.com)

What exhaust do you have? It may help to see a list of your mods.

Your MD friend!

I got Berk Test pipe and Tanabe touring.
Was thinking about going 3 inch but JoeyBalls ran Invidia V4 and Testpipe, he had boost creep, so I think I'll stick with my setup.
