This has been a fun addition ...

The 40% ratio (pictured) brings the boost up to around 9.5 psi which corresponds to roughly 470 WHp as dynoed before.
Having the EBC set to 0% will bring the boost down to about 5 psi which is what the wastegate actuators are set for. Although it was not dynoed at this level, I was told the general rule of thumb is approximately 20 WHp for every 1 psi boost. That comes out to about 380 WHp at 5 psi for everyday driving at 0% setting on the EBC.
So ... long story short (and without regard to engine/transmission life), it is easy to turn this thing up to over 500 WHp with the current setup.
GTM did a very nice job of custom molding the panel for ashtray installation making it look stock.

Glad this worked out great. Keeping it cool sometimes will make the car last, especially your tranny. lol
Is your car still there or you brought it home?

LOL We need pics of the engine bay now!!!!!What really looks amazing IMO is the work hidden underneith the car and in the bumper cover. I'll have to get some pics the next time it is on a lift (probably this weekend). OT, but I'm trying to figure out where a suspension rattling sound is coming from on the drivers front suspension.
