Thanks man, Speedhunters and British Top Gear are my top two auto-related media outlets by far.

Order TurboSmart 3 lb inner wastegate springs. That's in addition to my 10lb springs. That'll put me at 13 psi
Getting the car tuned Tuesday and probably hit around 540 to 550 , if nothing goes wrong.
Shop guy is confident it will be fine.
Hope I don't regret this.

-Spent $40 on aftermarket blue lug nuts to match my cars color.
-Put them on the front and rear right wheels.
-Destroyed all 10 threads because the aftermarket lugs are garbage.
-Wheels basically fell off trying to drive.
-Had to tow it one block away to the mechanic ($60)
-Had to get 10 new wheel studs ($190 parts+labor)
Lesson learned. Do NOT put aftermarket lugs on my car.
