the forge actuators are really great... i had them installed on mine and had NO problems whatsoever... however, i do have tiny bit of boost spikes on extremely cold nights, although the spikes are minimal (highest spike i've had was 15.7 when max boost was set to 15 psi).

only problems people were having were the diaphragms busting from boost loads. forge fixed those already.

Nice! I like the APS kit, but the Greddy kit suited my needs better. It also comes without an I/C, which allowed me to have a custom one made, allows for open dumps, etc.

A place called Quick Rev! fixed all the things Performance Clinic messed up and actually got the car running (www.quickrev.com).

I have done all the tuning myself.
Link doesnt work: You did the tuning wow, impressive...didnt trust anyone after the last place? Im curious what "piggy your using? I dont have many options here either.

Sorry, www.quickrev.com

I wanted to be able to tune it myself. I am using the UTEC.

I wanted to learn how to do it so I wasn't at the mercy of a tuner every time I did something to the car. Its expensive to pay someone else to make minor changes.
